Today I walked the Bonstapel nature trail ... 👩‍🏫👨‍🏫 there is a lot to read and of course to look at .. The view from the Bonstapel is, after it has been cleared, unbelievably beautiful ... after the rain, the paths are like mostly there🤪, muddy, but still easy to walk on ...

Today we climbed the highest "mountain" in the district of Herford (directly on the border to Lippe) in the most wonderful weather 🤣... The Bonstapel!
