April 26, 2025,Zum freien Stuhl, Lippstadt, Alberssee und Mastholter See

We just went for it.

A really great tour...with a few slip-ups...but somehow we found the right path again.

It was very nice at the "Freier Stuhl" with its really great beer garden...

And to finish off, an aperitif at Alberssee is also not to be sniffed at.
