Since my old man was in the hospital and Muddern didn't want to go yet, I took the opportunity to go for a walk while I was waiting.

The Christmas trail starts at the visitor car park of the Grafschaft monastery. It takes you on a circular tour past the mill pond and through a rustic forest back to the monastery. There are various stations along the way with contemplative texts, elves and other Christmas surprises.

Nothing exciting, rain, rain, ☔️, the same walk for the second time, with Susanne, this time with daughter, grandchildren Helena and Paulina and sister. The children had a lot to discover. Thanks to the county community. 🎄⭐️🎅🕯️
