May 7, 2023,Felsen - Genießerrunde im Kleinziegenfelder Tal

Finally going hiking again in Franconian Switzerland today.

Absolute dream tour with seemingly endless rock formations, super great paths, forest floor partly lined with moss and dense coniferous forests and wonderful views.

Dream round in dream weather in a fabulously beautiful landscape.
