Often, when ascending to huts, the impression easily arises that everything except an exposed path could be boring and inappropriate. But that is - as is so often the case with stereotypes - nonsense!
The ascent from the Graswangtal valley initially offers the opportunity to warm up in peace. At the level

The area south of the Schmelztal gives the impression of not being as frequented as the core area of the Siebengebirge. And from the Himmerich, you also have a magnificent view down to the Rhine, into the Drachenfelser Ländchen and as far as the Eifel. Behind Windhagen, it becomes very close to nature

Basically just an extended walk, but it does go uphill steeply at the beginning. Afterwards, it remains very pleasant on soft forest paths. It is quite possible to continue to Modrava. However, bus connections are quite sparse, which is why it may make sense to end the hike earlier than planned in favor of the next bus.

From Nova Pec, it goes up to the Schwarzenberg Canal. Afterwards, continue parallel to it and down to the ferry and across to Horní Planá.

An outstanding hike: the Bäresteig. From station to station, which already ensures good connections. And the first half of the tour in particular is simply fantastic due to the beautiful root paths and the numerous, varied rock formations. If the self-service beer garden opposite the station in Cerny

The public transport connection near the border is improvable on the one hand, but above all not always reliable in advance. Thus, this hike starts at the hiking parking lot below Dreisessel instead of in Bischofsreut. On nice days, it is as expected full. Just a few meters off the main path, it is largely

Potzblitz, that a tour spontaneously put together - on the way there on the train! - would be so much fun, was not foreseeable.
From Obernau station (request stop!) it goes uphill through mixed and pine forest until the Judenberg is reached. Below is an old, fenced-off Jewish cemetery. Before heading

One advantage of the Rothaarsteig is also a disadvantage: as beautiful as the mostly secluded location of its course away from towns is, it often means long, extensive approaches and departures. On this hike alone, these add up to a total of 14 kilometers! The paths leading to/from the trail are characterized

Small hike or extended walk? Whatever the case, plenty of scenery and historical buildings always surround you. Although it runs parallel to the Superstrada for a long time, separated only by the Bisatto canal, this is hardly noticeable. Two old villas and the view of the Euganean Hills provide pleasant

From Herchen train station, it first goes onto the access path to the Siegsteig and the adventure trails. After crossing the Sieg, the hiker stays on the "Försterweg" for some time and quickly gains 200 meters in altitude. After leaving this adventure trail, it is not far to the start of the (very) Small

The starting point can be reached by train every half hour. Past the castle, it goes up into a partly sparse forest with numerous wildflowers. After that, there is some scrambling to do in a small gorge. After a proper descent/ascent and descent again, the hiker arrives in Svaty Jan p. Skalou with its

The gaze repeatedly goes towards Vihorlat. First along the stream and later up over partly difficult paths. And then down through beech forests to Snina, where there is a connection to Humenné.

It is strenuous despite only just under nine kilometers. Either because you better make at least a small detour around Podskalka. Or because the cartography often doesn't add up and you move off-grid. However, the beech forests and the views into the distance, all the way into Ukraine, are certainly worth it.

The route of the (officially) first, or rather, in this case, final stage of the Westerwaldsteig trail is truly surprising. As soon as the imposing motorway bridge comes into view, the question of what lies ahead inevitably arises. The path then remains largely unpredictable almost until reaching the

It goes down from the Brunnenkopfhaus similarly to the way up. Shortly before reaching the park grounds of Linderhof, the path leads away to the left to Kohlbachweg - very rooty through mixed forest. Where the end of the hike now lies also depends on the timetable of the 316, which mostly runs hourly.
