I went almost the same tour on January 4th, 2020.

Were there no swans at your starting point?

At that time everything was full of swans there and recently with another follower.

Well, there aren't that many alternatives there if you want to look at the area. So far I only knew the sign on the motorway and thought something else ;-)

No, there weren't any swans. I only saw one on one of the lakes.

I loved cycling there. You don't seem to be particularly enthusiastic 🧐

Oh well, I thought it wasn't anything special now. Which doesn't mean I didn't think it was nice. The landscape is like the quarry ponds / Rhine / Altrhein around Eggenstein and Linkenheim :-)
