Velotour Sommer 2021

After a night in the forest I was not in a great mood when I started cycling. I was hungry but couldnt find a good spot to get something to eat, so I decided to go to Maribor and get something there. It was still about an hour ride away, so once I arrived, I had a long and big breakfast to regenerate. I cycled a bit through the old town but didnt stay for much longer, so in the end I unfortunately didnt see that much of the city. I headed towards the austrian border and ate lunch just before it. Once over the border I followed the „Murradweg“, a pleasant path along the small river separating the two countries. I really enjoyed having the improved cycling signs again as I returned to Austria, they are definitely better compared to Slovenia. This way I could largely follow the signs and didnt have to keep navigation open on my phone. The path went along many corn and pumpkin fields and small villages. For the night I found a perfect camping at a Farmers place (Bauernhof), I was all alone, so plenty of room foe my tent, I had power, Internet, shower and WC, and since it was a wine maker, there was a fridge with local wines and juices. Since I was alone I didnt get a whole bottle of wine, instead I had a grape juice and a small „Gespritzter“ (white wine & sparkling water).
