Incredibly beautiful views and nature experiences!
There is something to discover everywhere and the range of things to do in these close sea resorts is truly impressive.
In contrast to the rest of Germany, we are incredibly lucky with …

Travemünde the second today🙈

📖 Unfortunately it wasn't possible to stay on the beach for too long as it was getting quite cool.

So the time ⏳️ until the train 🚆 leaves, spend some time on the beach.
A bit of driving away turned into a little survival tour, climbing over tree trunks, climbing over sandy ledges, balancing on stones🙈

Mei tip: don't go hiking at the weekend, then there are an incredible number of bikes on the road.
Possibility to stop at Café Hermannshöhe on the …

Hallo Ostsee are on the road again. Weather says today would be the best day to do something like that. Started from the Hermannshöhe at the parking lot in the direction of Niendorf, there's a staircase down and along the water to Travemünde and then back upstairs. Was great

A grey day and a really beautiful hike. From Travemünde along the beach. It's amazing...how the cliffs have slipped and how many trees have fallen down...
Then we went back above the cliffs...and took the Priwall ferry back.

The weather was better 🌤 this morning than predicted. So we quickly packed our things and set off towards the Baltic Sea. 🥾🎒👏🏼

It felt really good to let the wind blow around my ears …
