🥾🐾 After the flat hike the day before yesterday along the Elbe, today it was a bit up and down again. Beautiful rock formations were to be admired, such as the Schroeter Bastei and the Pfaffenstein. All in all a nice round trip, with Holger the hiking dog 🐶

In glorious spring weather, we were supposed to walk along the Zschopau/Kriebstein Dam today.
First we walked along the road for a long stretch. But the view over the golden rapeseed fields made up for it.
The path along the Zschopau was quite challenging for me. Sure-footedness is essential!
