On our wedding anniversary today, my wife and I are taking a walk around Lake Bostal with my parents. The reservoir, which covers approximately 120 hectares and was created in 1979, is used almost exclusively for recreational activities. We are being treated to sunshine on this winter day. We take a

Today's hike along the Aar River is something I "borrowed" from @Manuela 📸 (many thanks for that!), slightly adapted, and expanded. In perfect hiking weather, the approximately 16-kilometer route offers a varied experience, leading along idyllic forest paths, wide forest roads, and scenic field paths

At the end of November 2025, I visited my parents in Torremolinos, who were vacationing on the Costa del Sol. I dedicated one day to a spectacular hike near Canillas de Aceituno, a typical Andalusian mountain village at the foot of the Sierra de Tejeda.
The first half of the hike followed the long-distance

Given the foggy weather, I had considered skipping a hike on my day off. Luckily, I decided to go out after all, albeit more of a leisurely stroll without any significant elevation changes. Luckily, because my destination, the Sandlache nature reserve, had a magical and mystical quality thanks to the

On my day off today, I'm taking the train back to my old hometown of Idar-Oberstein. There, I'm hiking the Saar-Hunsrück Trail, a premium long-distance hiking route, from Idar-Oberstein to Wildenburg Castle near Kempfeld. From there, I'm extending the hike by a few kilometers to my parents' house in

Today I hiked the Aar Loop "Aar-Höhen-Luft" [sic], a trail that opened just a few months ago. The tour initially leads from the Hohenstein district of Born, across meadows and fields, to Adolfseck, which was once surrounded by the Aar River, as the "Adolfsecker Fenster" viewpoint high above the village

The Wispertalsteig is the "mother" of all Wisper trails. I hiked the route with Lars in June 2017 (before my komoot days). Even now in autumn, the tour is impressive, even if the weather could have been a bit better. The densely wooded route alternates between V-shaped valleys and plateaus, ensuring

To put it bluntly: Today, the Aar Loop "Freistaat Flaschenhals" (Free State of Bottleneck) was the most unattractive hike of my life! The first two kilometers were particularly bad: First, it ran parallel to a country road with its road noise, then I had to pass a foul-smelling sewage treatment plant

With perfect late summer hiking weather, I decide today to take the "Domblick" dream loop in the Hunsrück. The name of the tour refers to the Church of St. Christopher in Ravengiersburg, nicknamed the "Hunsrück Cathedral" because of its extraordinary size, with its twin-towered, 42-meter-high westwork

Today I kicked off my 2026 hiking season with a circular tour to the three highest peaks of the Taunus Mountains: the Großer Feldberg (around 880 meters), the Kleiner Feldberg (around 825 meters), and the Altkönig (around 798 meters). While the temperature was a crisp -7 degrees Celsius, the sunshine
