Around Rahlstedt
First bike trip this spring, starting small and visiting mainly places I'd been before. Not such a good idea to leave the beaten track in Höltigbaum nature reserve, because deep in the forest, betwen a ditch, a fence, and a pond, I found myself faced with the nastiest version of…

Two Passes Hike from Tunte
Started with overcast weather and met a few people going up to the first pass, Degollada de la Manzanilla. Passing into the wilderness beyond, there was nothing but mountains and in pine forests all the way to the horizon, until I descended from the second pass, Degollada de Rosiana, and…

Rantzauer Forst - Holmmoor - Hasloh - Feldmark - Ohemoor
One-way from Norderstedt-Mitte (outbound U1), Sunny but a nasty chilly headwind almost all the way. Lots of nature and quiet back-country roads, mostly even paved. Also some decidedly trashy areas with run-down shacks and discarded furniture etc. along the road, particularly close to the airport.

Around Volksdorf
There is a surprising amount of really remote-feeling, quiet nature on the rims of this posh city quarter. :-)

Oberalsterniederung - Henstedter Moor - Tangstedter Forst
Another one-way, taking the U1 and A2 to Ulzburg-Süd and returning home by bike. Started with nice weather and few people in the picturesque Oberalsterniederung, but then for the second half the sky turned grey, there was a nasty head wind (just my luck to have a rare SE wind…

Lütjensee, Großensee and Some Agricultural Südstormarn
Quiet country lanes, some even closed for motorcars, forest trails, and some more cycle paths on former railway rights-of-way. Took the U1 to Großhansdorf and returned by bike swinging round the Großensee which however has no particular characteristics that would recommend it as a destination (honestly, in spite of its…

Dykes and Marshes of Harburg and Wilhelmsburg
This time I took the train on the outbound leg so to have the stressful part behind me once I started biking. Saw a lot of really peaceful, nearly car-free hinterland that made me quite forget I was still in a city of 2 million. Returned through in a different…

Since it feels like I pretty much covered all points of the compass with round trips from my home 🤷♂️ I decided to extend my range with one-way trips, returning home on a train, in this case the S2 from Aumühle. Ignore the last few 100 m of the recorded trip. Since the train was just about to leave

Fascinating contrast. The Niendorfer Gehege (hard to translate btw, it signifies a fenced-in area, usually wooded, where you keep animals, so "deer park" probably comes closest) is extremely crowded on the weekend, there's a family with kids behind every tree. Then you pass through into the Feldmark

Another one-way trip, returning on the S2 from Bergedorf. This time I paused rather than finished the navigation when I took the train, thought I could resume it when I got bike on my bike at the end. Unfortunately, Komoot also counts the beeline between the train stations as traveled even though the
