Today @Uwi 🦣🍺 accompanied me again on the way from Dortmund to Herdecke. Although there are really nicer paths through Dortmund's south, we stubbornly stayed on the designated Jakobsweg, also because there was still a stamp here 😂😂.
After Wellinghofen, the path became really beautiful. Through the

Today, the journey continued in cold but dry weather from Lünen to Dortmund. To prevent boredom and add some variety to the stage, the Dortmund local @Uwi 🦣🍺 spontaneously joined me and accompanied me as a guide 😀😀🥾🥾. He incorporated some loops without deviating significantly from the actual pilgrimage

Today, together with @Claudi, we did our last stage of the Hohe Mark Steig. In great hiking weather, the path led us over wonderful trails from the bus stop in the Haard up to the Stimberg. Here we surprisingly met @derolli, who was also out and about in the Haard with his Saturday hiking group of three

Well, it could only get better today and so it was. There were also longer asphalt sections, but they alternated with beautiful field paths and forest trails, here the NSG Cappelner Wald is particularly worth mentioning.
Particularly worth seeing were the Westerwinkel Castle, located right at the beginning

Phew, that was reeeeally tough at the border. After three varied and beautiful stages, today was 35 kilometers of what felt like 100% asphalt🤮🤮. Hardly any forest, lots of countryside and tarmac underfoot. I'm glad I did the route at this time of year. In summer, I would have collapsed. Today, it would

Na, that was a beautiful stage of the pilgrimage route🥾🥾☺️☺️. Up to Münster, narrow paths, wider forest and meadow trails alternated constantly with asphalt. Water played a big role, such as the Dortmund-Ems Canal, the Werse, the Ems, the Boltenmoor, the lovely beautiful Münsterland park landscape

In Münsterland, the clocks tick differently, but public transport is punctual🤣🤣.
With dreamlike hiking weather, we continued today directly from Tecklenburger into Münsterland. The path led mainly over small side roads, interrupted by beautiful forest and meadow paths, sprinkled with great motifs in

Since my train connection to the Ruhr area/Rhineland is closed for four weeks, an alternative was needed and so I started my new project in Lower Saxony. The Westphalian Way of St. James has been on my list for a long time and is an ideal addition to the Rhenish Way of St. James that I completed last

Today, together with @Keith (a.k.a. "Statler") and @RobertO, we went on the last stage of the Rhenish Way of St. James in fantastic weather ☀️☀️. From Breinig, the path led us to the first highlight in Kornelimünster (also the starting point of the Eifelsteig). We continued over beautiful paths through

Wow, what a stage 👍👍😀😀. Felt like it was 80% through the forest. Only in Vorhalle and Haspe was some asphalt required. What a relief compared to the previous stages ☺️☺️. Over narrow paths and slightly wider forest trails, it went up and down constantly with considerable altitude meters through the
