This morning I went for a walk around the Matzbank loop. It's probably nice and shady in the summer, but today it was unfortunately "shady" because the sun barely penetrated the branches. I hope I don't suffer from pollen as much after the walk today as I did yesterday 🤧

🍂 An autumnal discovery tour
This tour near Neuweiler took us deep into an autumn-hued forest – with plenty of leaves along the path, golden hues on the trees, and a wonderfully tranquil atmosphere. Despite the cloudy sky, it remained dry – and that's precisely what made this tour so special.
