Cycle path through Wilhelminenaue Park

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The state horticultural show took place here in 2016. The Wilheminenaue was rebuilt for a lot of money. Some exhibits can still be seen today.

Maulaffenplatz

Highlight • Lake

On this tour you can do your business in case of an emergency - a romantic little house with little hearts for aeration.
But otherwise the place is very idyllic …

I don't know if it will be summer or what...
After all, the water temperature is higher than the usual air temperature in mid-October 🤪

The sun comes out 🌞 and as soon as you have your bike outside there is nasty snow, drizzle and rain ☔️, but no matter, because after half an hour there was some blue sky on the horizon. At Christmas time you're supposed to be frugal, so that was probably enough for us 🤣
