January 26, 2025,Brug over de Worm – Duits-Nederlandse grensbrug rondtocht vanuit Palenberg

We end the week with, how could it be otherwise, a nice walk. 😁

This morning we drove to Übach Palenberg (🇩🇪) by car. 🚙 From there we walked along the Worm to Rimburg (🇳🇱) and along the railway back towards our neighboring country. 🥾
