Along the meandering Elbe: Kolín-Poděbrady and back
Details
Dear Adventurers,
given the temperatures on Saturday, we'd like to keep it close to the water and explore the meandering Elbe (.cz: Labe) river from Kolín to Poděbrady, and because the grass is always greener on the other side, hike the other riverbank back.

⚠️☢️☣️ Whatever the FORECAST predicts for Saturday (currently mostly sunny-overcast with 22-30 °C throughout the day), it is just a FORECAST. Remember that meteorologists, politicians, teachers etc. bear no consequences for the quality of their work product and dress accordingly. Heat/rain/storms/hail are normal weather for this season and always a possibility, expect MUD. Trust me 😂
