Because the weather is currently tormenting hikers, you have to get out even without sunshine.
A short trip to Odenthal; parking was easy and free.
Unfortunately, the hike itself was rather average. The ground was quite muddy, the sights were limited, and I even took a wrong turn for a bit. But it was

The weather wasn't great today—cold wind, no sun. So, time to cover some ground and get fit.
Parking (on Sundays) was free and easy. The first few kilometers to Höffen weren't very pleasant, and please cross the road at Hohn. The path we were using felt unofficial. It might have been the weather, but

The hike starts in Hoffnungsthal. Parking is easy and free. After the first few kilometers, the trail was rather suboptimal. Somehow, it just didn't quite grab me. And even though the trail improves later and becomes quite beautiful towards the end, it still leaves a somewhat underwhelming impression

Today, a hiking snack in Herrenstrunden. Parking is easy and free. The trail starts with a slight uphill climb. Those who aren't up for a long walk can park at the top. From there, the trail descends gently along a wide path, offering sunshine and fantastic views of Cologne. At the possible turnaround

Merry Christmas. Like almost every year on Boxing Day, a winter hike. Today through lots of forest, because there are no leaves and the sun doesn't stay up as long in the Bergisches Land region.
Parking was great. The trail, with its many narrow, root-covered paths, was truly rustic. A bit like hiking

Spaziergang in Innsbruck Das Wetter war nicht das Beste, dann ein kleiner Ausflug nach Innsbruck. Immer wieder schön. Eine in meinen Augen unterschätzte Stadt. Viele schöne Orte, die einem in Erinnerung bleiben. Nicht nur das goldene Dachl.

The Höllental Gorge was planned. On the way to the parking lot, I saw the footpath to Hammersbach from Garmisch-Partenkirchen. We parked the car for free, and set off toward Hammersbach. Those 3-4 km alone are a joy. On the way to the gorge, we discovered that it was closed.
So, Plan B: a hike to Eibsee

We walked to the Wankbahn cable car and climbed GaPa's local mountain. With renewed energy but tired legs after the previous week's cold, we only managed four truly "high" peaks: Roßwank, Ameisberg, Eckenberg, and the Wank itself.

Today was finally perfect hiking weather again. So off we went to Burg Castle. Parking was easy and free (large hiking parking lot). The first part is quite good, the second part in the Eschbach Valley is even more beautiful. You learn a lot about the Schmiedehammer mills and their history. Unfortunately
