The perfect end to a perfect weekend Sunday lunchtime - stop in the traditional restaurant "Fischhaus" on the Saale. Highly recommended, among other things, the catfish fillet with crispy potato wedges ...
Then a digestive walk towards Almrich and past the idyllic Kleine Saale, the Klopstock spring and through the school gate past the vinotheque back to the starting point.

A lovely little hike – along the small Saale River to Schulpforte, where, of course, the first day of school was also taking place this weekend. ☺️ Back along the Saale cycle path. Enough for today, it was already too warm. ☺️😅
