Rentiere

After a quick breakfast with some porridge we leave at 9:30 am. I’m very tired today, not the best conditions for the 700-meter climb (from 488 m to 1120 m) on the first five kilometers. ? The path first leads us along the lake shore, then uphill through the forest. The path is characterized by […]

Once again we are very lucky with the weather, […]
