The Dill Tower, first mentioned in the 14th century, was reconstructed in the early 20th century. It is part of the old city wall and with its picturesque location on the Dill it is a perfect photo motif.

Then back briefly through the city and over the Alsbach. …

Wonderful October, sunshine over hill and valley (from midday) off we went! Towards Aartalsee. Lots of like-minded people and walkers made the most of the sun.. Now and then quite a strong wind. The tour was simply a gift again!!
