This year, the Untersee (Helmstedt area) and the Obersee (Harbke) will be connected. This means that what belongs together will grow together.
The lake will continue to be called Lappwaldsee, which is why the stupid title of the highlight has to be adapted accordingly.

I'm just a nuisance when cooking, which is why I went on a short bike ride.
No more cycling through Wulfersdorfer Schweiz, because that's where the wolf lives.

Fog, fog, fog!

Knowing the "quality" of the local cycle paths, it was inevitably a leisurely tour. 🤗 No rush of speed.

Small morning round. Was curious how far advanced the union of the large Lappwaldsee with the "small" is. Had to overlook some warning signs😁.
Many of the birches standing on the shore are literally drowning. The water finds its way. It's progressing.
The roads in the opencast mine were difficult to drive on.

In Sommersdorf there are not only delicious mirabelle plums, but also wild blackberry bushes. The location is not revealed, but the tour is still worth it.

Interesting: the cycle path from Büddenstedt to Hohnsleben is designated as an official route. And you constantly pass prohibition signs because of mining areas.
So what now?!
