November 6, 2022,Wanderung mit dem Steigerwaldclub

Did a nice autumn hike with the Steigerwaldclub today. Started in Rüdenhausen in the direction of Castell, which we left behind. We continued through the vineyards in the direction of Wiesenbronn, where we stopped. After we strengthened ourselves 🍛🍺 we went back towards Rüdenhausen.
