June 1, 2024,Wanderung entlang der Mulde ⛅️🥾

We set off shortly after Röda, in Altleisnig over the pedestrian bridge, Wiesental, Marschwitz and Tanndorf. Then we stopped off at the Podelwitz moated castle - the mixed fish plate is highly recommended 😋😅 - and headed back on the other side of the Mulde! The weather today was better than expected ⛅️🤩
