Sächsische Schweiz - Germany

I started to think about the path to follow and small points on the map before I reach some bigger goal.

 

This is one of my favorites shots ever, because of the sentiment to those mountains, because I like its natural, simple beauty. It's so calm.

Dogs with -- or leading -- their people along the Whitchurch Arm of the Llangollen Canal, in the Whitchurch Waterways Country Park, town of Whitchurch (North Shropshire, in the Welsh Borders of west-central England), on a partly sunny day towards the end of May.

 

Whitchurch is a market town in northernmost Shropshire, near the borders of both Cheshire (England) and an eastern part of Wrexham County Borough (northeastern Wales). The site of continuous settlement since at least its Roman foundation as Mediolanum, it has been a market town since the 14th century and is still noted as an outlet for the cheese of the area. Whitchurch continues to have many historic buildings, in both the traditional half-timbered style and later Georgian brick.

 

The Whitchurch Arm of the Llangollen Canal, opened in 1811, was built for commercial purposes, primarily for the transport of goods. The footpaths were originally towpaths for the horses that towed the canal boats. Today, like many other canals in Britain, its appeal is essentially for recreation and historical interest; people rent or buy narrowboats, which are painted in bright colours and designs in a traditional manner, and some tour companies offer trips in them. The country park includes this canal and level pathways along its banks, along with explanatory signs.

 

On this fine late-spring day, it was enjoyed by boaters in narrowboats, walkers -- often with their dogs -- and bicyclists. The Labrador in the foreground was delighted to say "hello" to all of the four-legged and two-legged friends whom he met.

Noch vor wenigen Jahren gab es am Weg bei den Höllenlöchern oberhalb Bad Urach einige Stellen, an denen man ins Tal hinausschauen konnte. Heute sind diese Aussichtspunkte zugewachsen, sodass man kaum noch Ausblicke genießen kann.

Dabei ist man doch in Urach so stolz auf seine preisgekrönten Wanderwege ...
