May 5, 2024,Gläserberg – Dermbacher Hütte Runde von Zella/Rhön

There's not much to say about it.
It wasn't really our day - we behaved like girls....
We had a summit beer after just 3km 😂, the Komoot chick wanted to send us through strangers' front gardens and was angry when we didn't🤷🏻‍♀️
Well, what's done is done...👍

Great route, forest, meadow, bat village and damn beautiful views...
Long climbs... no matter which side you want to climb the Gläserberg from... better to climb first and then end the tour! Disadvantage... the opportunity to stop for a break on the mountain comes too early... 🤣
