October 1, 2023,Rundwanderweg Ketzin/Havel - Paretz

Today's tour is more dedicated to culture than nature, but at least there are beautiful sections on the Havel. I've cycled through Paretz so many times that I can't count it. A visit to the castle was never on the agenda because there wasn't enough time. So today a hike and a visit to the castle, which was refreshingly entertaining.
