January 27, 2024,Hainberg - Mädelstag 🐦👩🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👩🏻

After brunch together 🥐 ☕️ with our husbands, we went to the travel agency today ✈️ and from there we explored the Hainberg 🌲 together today.

We were very excited because we had only seen 1/3 of Hainberg so far.

The sun 🌞 the short chat with @Alte_Veste and the time for us made the tour even more beautiful. 🤗

Thanks to @e bike/wander Oldis 70+ uschi u. bernd, I visited Café Friedrich and strolled through the mullein area. A wonderful day with sunshine and dark skies on the blossom-filled Hainberg. Worth a trip at any time of year, but today was especially beautiful.

Today I met up with @Chris at the Neumühler Steg in Gebersdorf for a "girls' getaway" on the Hainberg. It was a wonderful afternoon with lots of chatting, botanizing among the autumnal carpet of blossoms, and taking photos under a glorious September sky. The vast stands of mulleins particularly impressed us. At Café Friedrich in the Unterasbach cemetery, we fortified …

January 8, 2022,Nordic Walking Hainberg ☃️

Snow and cold didn't stop us either. Since I liked the round the day before yesterday so much, we repeated it again today.
It's unbelievable how nature changes immediately when it snows.
Unfortunately, Komoot screwed up the recording .... sometimes happens .... so I had to import the tour afterwards as done :(

But it was fun

January 6, 2022,Nordic Walking Hainberg

A scenic bird sanctuary with lots of watercourses and rough nature. It is really recommended to everyone as it is wonderful for hiking, walking or jogging.
Unfortunately there are few markings and you should already know a little where to run, otherwise you can get lost a bit.
The route can be adjusted at any time as the paths constantly …
