We did a tour near Flossenbürg today where one highlight followed the next. Among other things, we were at the midpoint of Central Europe, on a "Waalweg", at the Gaisweiher leisure center and at the Haselstein castle ruins. Great tour, unfortunately only a bit wet and cold, but still highly recommended

We did a beautiful tour today near the Czech border. It went up to the Pleysteiner Sulzberg, which even has an extraordinary summit cross 😅 up there the forest is a natural forest reserve. No wood is taken, accordingly wild is the beech forest here. Numerous legends about giants, forest spirits and

Our hike today was less spectacular, even though it took us over the Mausberg to Mausdorf. We even saw a real mouse, besides the plush ones that were with us 🤣 Luckily, we stayed dry on the nearly 14km hike, but it got noticeably colder again. It was more of a hike to stay fit; a little fitness training can't hurt, right? 😅

Today we enjoyed an impressive quarry hike in sunshine, though it was only 10 degrees Celsius. We've been to Epprechtstein a few times before, but never on this particular loop. While the first part was rather monotonous, following a forest road, the second section offered one highlight after another

St. Peter was kind to us again today, blessing us with a wonderful spring day near Schwarzhofen/Zangenstein. Our hike took us from Schwarzhofen into the forest, gradually climbing. We often passed wayside crosses and small chapels. The historic center of Zangenstein was interesting, and there were also

Plenty of sunshine! Even the Saharan dust hasn't reached us yet. Reason enough to take a short hike close to home on this beautiful Friday afternoon. The Waldeck Castle ruins near Kemnath are always beautiful and truly impressive. Waldeck Castle Hill is home to the remains of a castle complex that is

Since it was sunny again today with very pleasant double-digit temperatures, we went on a lovely hike around Oberviechtach. First, we followed the Stations of the Cross to Johannisberg, then continued on the nearly 13km trail, mostly along the beautiful Goldsteig path, with constant ups and downs. About

Finally, a hint of spring is in the air. Time to lace up the hiking boots and get outside. No gloves! And no layers! 😁 Today we were in the legendary Elm, a beautiful, idyllic, and mossy forest near Waldau. Many ghost stories are told about the old hand crosses and abandoned quarries. There are also

Today we climbed to the top of Franconia 😉 Since it's pretty wet, cold, and muddy here at about 420m above sea level, we thought we'd give winter one last hurrah 🤣 In the Fichtel Mountains, the roof of Franconia. With three peaks: the Schneeberg, the Haberstein, and the Nußhardt. Now, spring can finally
