A quiet path carved through clouds and trees.
First test of a long-standing wish. Happy me!

This ain’t Norway, this is Høhenwarte.
(Of course it is river Saale and lake Hohenwarte. The norwegian style branding is part of a tourism campaign.)
First day off, short bike ride. Perfect start into summer vacation.

Taken on a short hike around Ziegenrück. Lake Hohenwarte with former “Conrod” powerplant, which became useless after the damn has been built. (finally it is being renovated)
An awesome “playground” when I was a kid. Now it is owned and access isn’t allowed. (not sure if it was when I was a kid, but in the reunification aftermath, nobody cared)
Always worth a visit. Still an awesome place.
Another taken on a rainy day. Foggy Saale river in Ziegenrück
Upper Saale river with a moody layer of fog on a grey and rainy day.
Upper Saale valley as original as it was before the well known cascade of dams were built. Beautiful nature together with Water mills give an idea how the whole area must have been looked in the past.
Ziemestalbrücke. A stunning piece of engineering, built in 1895. Hasn’t seen any train since 20 years.
