Für die Hafen-Tour hatte ich mir schönes Wetter gewünscht - und das hat geklappt. 😊 Denn schon bei der Planung der Stadtteilumrundung wurde klar, dass es viele schöne Abschnitte und Ausblicke geben würde. Und genau so war es dann auch. 🙌
Start war im futuristischen Medienhafen mit seinen architektonisch

Finally used the sunny and free Sunday for a longer tour in my beloved Eifel again! 💚 I rode to Obermaubach, briefly said "Good morning" to the reservoir, and then immediately tackled the first ascent via the so-called "Path of Tears" 😭 (it wasn't that bad though! 😉) up to the beautiful forest chapel

In recent years, I've always enjoyed hiking the Rotweinwanderweg, each time walking a slightly different route 🥾, but recognizing one or another view or one or another "Straußwirtschaft" (a type of seasonal wine tavern). 🍇 This year was no different. However, what I barely recognized was the atmosphere

Today, unfortunately, it was only enough for a short round in front of the house again. We decided to visit a few art spots, as it happened to be the weekend of open artist studios and ateliers. 🎨 We started our Art-Walk in Bilk at the Salzmannbau, a former factory and today home to non-profit associations

What a rainy Sunday 🌧️, even though a hike was actually planned for today ... After it finally cleared up from 5 p.m. onwards 🌥️, there was at least a short walk right outside the front door: from IHZ- to WGZ-Park and then back via Readinger and Moskauer Straße. Oberbilk can also be green and beautiful! 💚

Today was already the last day of our hiking adventure 🥲, but it really had it all one last time. As soon as we left the Naturfreundehaus, we noticed the numerous trail runners 🏃♀️. They were to accompany us all day, as the route of the 37th Mountain Marathon coincidentally overlapped with our route

What a day, we had expected rain, but somehow not quite so much. 😮 But let's start from the beginning. After two days in the beautiful Oberstiegalpe, it was time to say goodbye and we set off with confidence 🧦🧦. The clouds hung low and it looked simply fantastic. First, we went down the now familiar

Today was supposed to be sunny ☀️, so we finally tackled the king stage: the ridge hike on the Nagelfluhkette, or rather the middle part of it. The tour was actually planned for yesterday, but luckily 🍀 we had postponed it, because in the rain it certainly wouldn't have been half as nice. On the other

The weather was once again expected to stay within limits ☁️, so we changed our plans a bit, because for the ridge hike on the Nagelfluhkette, we definitely wanted sun ☀️ and visibility 👀 – and we hoped for both from tomorrow. So, for today, we planned a comparatively short and easy tour. 😅

Hard to believe that I've never really been to the High Fens before, and after this wonderful autumn hike, I can't understand it at all. 🤷♀️ But now I can finally join the conversation when it comes to the high moor area on the German-Belgian border. 😅
We started at the bus stop 🚏 Mützenicher Zoll
