In this weather you just can't sit behind the stove. So get out and hike.

We had to walk most of the way back the same way because there is no other way.

Today we walked through the castle parks of Hohenprießnitz and Zschepplin and the Mulde floodplain. We stopped for lunch at a lovely rest area under a birch tree.

My destination was the Christmas market at Hohenprießnitz Castle. This can even be visited on the 2nd and 3rd weekend of Advent.

So I took the S-Bahn🚈 at lunchtime and took the bus from Eilenburg. Nice connection, always without waiting. If everything goes smoothly.😉
