This morning it was very frosty and foggy. The sun tried to fight against it. As a result, I rarely saw anything of the lake. But there were mystical, beautiful light effects.

Today we took advantage of the sunny late summer day and I and my sister hiked around Lake Staffelsee. Very varied landscape, not too hot at the moment. We actually had a snack with a beautiful view on the snack hill (we only knew the name afterwards on Komoot). At the end of the round we took a cool to …

First it goes on a wooded path along the southern shore of the lake with a view of the island of Wörth, one of 7 islands in the Staffelsee. The low and high moors in the north and west are combined in the nature reserve Westlicher Staffelsee with adjacent …

March 6, 2025,Südufer Staffelsee – Moor am Staffelsee Runde von Murnau

The Staffelsee Loop is actually more of a bike ride than a hike. I thoroughly enjoyed the rather long loop around the lake in glorious "early spring weather" with mild temperatures at the beginning of March. There are several very beautiful hiking sections, such as the southern section in the shade, through the reeds on the western shore of the …

February 3, 2024,MC 03.02.2024 - Staffelsee 💦☀️⛰️

After a forced break of 3 days and still feeling under the weather 🤧🤒🤕😷, I just had to move a bit today. The planned 10 km turned into a circumnavigation, thanks to motivating people
Accompaniment 🤩 so I was able to cover 2 runs, the Mega Challenge and a charity run 🫶💫
Now I'll rest again 🙈🥱
