Ebike Tour to Kührointalm and lake Königssee
Staying at the Campingsite Allweglehen with our caravan for a few days, today we rented three Ebikes from Intersport Renoth and took a route up the mountain to Achenkanzel which gives you a panoramic view over lake Königssee with its surrounding mountains. Also this were the first pictures taken with my brand new Galaxy Z Fold 4 which I intend to continously write about as I explore more functionalities each day. Just leave a comment what you think of the photo quality. I really admire those people who are able to conquer this more or less 900 height meters without electric support. However the tour was marvelous riding among the…

Although I have to admit that we are lucky to be in bike reach of lake starnberg which we tested this morning which currently has 21 degree according to my Fenix 6 watch which…

Below the Rabenkopf there is a small cottage called Staffelalm where…

an evening at lake Starnberg
I know my current posts deal a lot with the lakes surrounding my hometown Wolfratshausen within a short auto trip range or sometimes even bike range. However going to these places or wandering in the bavarian mountains keeps my mind at rest Düring covid times. The nearest lake from me is lake starnberg where the legendary king ludwig the second is supposed to have drowned. It is very beautiful and mostly peaceful if you come there in early morning or late in evening times and not necessarily on the weekend where everybody also from further away comes there. There are several places like in the town Starnberg where you can…
