Today we remembered that Heltorf Park is only open for another week. So let's go. And what a weather! Unfortunately, komoot is crashing again, the pictures are all over the place and can't be sorted or organized. If it continues like this, I'll log off here.

Today on Father's Day it was packed at the entrance to the castle park. A large group gathered there for a tour. But otherwise it worked, once you had bought your entrance ticket for 3 €. Heltorf Castle with its beautiful rhododendrons and landscape park is so big that people get lost in it. (In the truest sense of the …
