Once again I explored a new corner and it's always beautiful on the Danube anyway.
First I looked at the castle in Höchstädt, then I went past many lakes to Sonderheim and finally down to the banks of the Danube.

8 o'clock in the morning in a great foggy autumn mood 🐕😊 A great circular route with good paths to walk. Two short walks along the road, otherwise good dirt roads along fishing lakes and the Danube and forest 😁 Suitable for children and people who are not sure-footed. Deer can also be observed 🦌
