Very nice tour in the beautiful autumn weather! Met nice people along the way. I was particularly impressed by the view from the Hohe Schorn tower.
I couldn't get past a Thuringian bratwurst at the Grenzadler.
The biathlon site is making real progress. Although... will they be finished by January?😉
Finally, a wonderful descent via the Finsterbacher Hütte, the Steigerhaus …
