This is my last Walking Square for Betty‘s wonderful Photo Challenge. Thank you so much for hosting! It has been an enchanting walking month. I hope there will be more Squares next year. So long Becky and keep walking!
Yesterday morning, when I walked in the forest, the sun was shining again. Because it had frozen at night, I saw hoarfrost on the plants for the first time in this warm autumn, shining wonderfully in the sunlight.

Two years ago, we spent a wonderful walking holiday in the Northern Blackforest/Germany. The weather was quite good but one day it was raining tremendously. We went out for lunch and relaxed in our holiday flat in the afternoon. Finally, I went out for a short stroll, wearing waterproof clothes, but everything was terribly wet and the trail had turned into a small stream. I took only a few photos for fear to ruin my camera and went back soon.
In fact, my camera didn’t work the next day, but it functioned again when the moisture had dried. A few weeks later, it finally gave up the ghost, perhaps due to the wetness on the walk.
In her Walking Squares Challenge, Becky asks us now to post photos about walking in the rain. I haven’t been walking in bad weather lately. But when I went on the last stretch of the Munich Way of St. James in October 2019, it rained heavily and almost continuously for days. Until shortly before the finish in Lindau on Lake Constance I held out but then the path was flooded. I had to cover the last 10 km by bus.
Actually, I wanted to post square photos from the Swiss Way of St. James today, but I realised that I have taken only very few landscape pictures that can be easily converted into 1:1 format …
Therefore, I am posting a picture from the old town of Abensberg that I took during a hike at the end of September.

If you’ve been following my blog for some time, you might know that I have been on the Camino several times in three years. I started in 2019 with the Munich Way of St. James. Almost from home I walked about 280 kilometres from Munich to Lindau on Lake Constance.
Finally, I had to give up my wonderful Camino project near Lyon/France. I am not going on pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostella anymore. As a souvenir, I am now posting three square photos of the Munich Way of St. James.
I will continue with Walking Squares on the Swiss Camino, the Via Jacobi.

Today, I went hiking on the banks of the Isar near Ismaning, north of Munich. The river had little water so that sandbanks were often to be seen. I am glad that I took advantage of the dry and not too cold weather. Tomorrow, it is supposed to be rainy and colder. At the Alps it has already snowed.

Due to the rather wet and cold autumn weather, I could not bring myself to go for a walk today. Therefore, I present a photo from a sunny and very scenic walk in the Cinque Terre, where we visited a few years ago. Bella Italia!
