The start time was agreed for 10:20 AM, but it was 10:22 AM when we finally set off. However, this inaccuracy was the only thing that could have been criticized in the end. Everything else was perfectly fine, and more than that. Surprisingly early, N👧 was heard to offer rare praise: this was a really

In the first draft, the title of this tour still contained the words "Keller Stausee" and "Schillinger Panoramaweg". But it seemed too bulky to me. Anyway. You often only realize what you have in the people around you when they are gone. You hear that often and it's true (unlike other things you hear

The Itzenplitz Pond occasionally makes the news. That's when the locals, known for their love of swimming, welcome the New Year with a dip in the icy water. We didn't have to freeze like them today, but it was still quite cold under the foggy gray sky. Besides my dear U👧, N👧 and her son F🧒 were with

While the last few days of autumn felt very autumnal, today's first day of winter felt more like summer. If it hadn't been for the cold wind, shorts and a t-shirt would have been perfectly acceptable. The sun was a constant companion, and since we spent a lot of time outdoors, it warmed us up nicely

I gave up on weather apps quite some time ago. The disappointments they always caused were just too painful. Today would have been the same. Not a drop on the apps, but in reality, everything was wet. It rained the entire drive to Scheuern and continued throughout the hike. However, this time it wasn

If you could believe the calendar, we'd still be in the middle of autumn. But in reality, winter has already begun. When we reached the starting point, the temperature had only just climbed above freezing, and the sun didn't shine all day, so it didn't get much warmer. N👧, who, like C🐕, thankfully

I hadn't expected everything to get wet on this tour. But it did. At first, the rain was light and persistent. It remained persistent and, moreover, got heavier and heavier. Thanks to our good gear, including the pink umbrella, we all made it through unscathed. And that brings us to the first highlight

We hadn't had anything wet in a while, and it was clear that it would happen again at some point. No matter, no reason to complain. Spring and summer offered ample opportunity for fair-weather tours. And autumn, which officially begins tomorrow, will probably bring nice weather again.
That's no reason

It had been in the press: a small cold front would cross our sunny midsummer high. However, there was no danger to the population at any time.
Until yesterday, I would have claimed to myself that I could feel a cold front. But that's not the case. What I could feel was our beautiful, sunny midsummer high

We'd been searching for the perfect tour for years. And sometimes we'd come pretty close to the ideal. But today, everything was absolutely perfect. We experienced the perfect tour.
It started with the group. We've never been more than eight, and that was very rare. Today, believe it or not, there were

Strictly speaking, the shower came shortly before the end (at the very end, we were already greeted by blue skies again). After all, there were barely 2km left to the finish, and by then I was already being hailed as a route-planning genius because we often saw rain in the distance, but were always able

It's almost impossible to go completely flat in northern Saarland, unless you keep circling Lake Bostal. But today's route only forced us up to Rheinstrasse at the beginning. After that, it was a leisurely up and down, beyond all extremes. That was a good thing, because even though we were spared the

When I saw the road sign as I set off, I had to smile: Sonnenstraße im Regen 😄
It stayed with us (5) for quite a while. The sun never really managed to break through, but after our rest stop at Grimburg, it stayed relatively dry. Actually, perfect hiking weather with temperatures well below 20°C, which

We had visited the pond and village in beautiful Lorraine just two weeks ago, and it had been a happy day. However, we didn't have N👧 and C🐕 with us, and since it was their heartfelt wish to hike here, we decided to go back again.
This time, however, we skipped the Côte de Suisse crest and extended

The official title of this tour is different, but it is quite unsightly. It has to do with the ever-lengthening list of ailments of the guide and followers, with everything imaginable occurring, from the heart to the feet.
So let's concentrate on the essentials: we visit the Lotharingian stork village
