Today was supposed to be a warm, almost hot day. That's why I chose an early start and a hike through a river valley. First, however, we walked over the Neuklingenberger Höhe and the Streichholzbrücke to the Klingenberg dam. This supplies the city of Dresden with drinking water. Then it went along the

Today there was supposed to be a lot of rain with short breaks. We set off early, hoping to catch the rain gap. It was still dry in the forest. But when we walked over the Kanonenweg to Korbitz, it rained quite heavily. So we descended steeply into the Triebischtal and ended the tour prematurely.

I was out with a former colleague today. She had wished for a special hike in Saxon Switzerland - this time without stairs. So I chose these three little-visited rocks as the destination and hiked with her through the rear of Saxon Switzerland. From the Kleinstein, we did take a wild descent. At the

In the evening we still had an appointment. So we went for a hike near the city and a bit shorter. Since it got quite warm again, it was pleasantly comfortable in the valley. This hike is based on hiking recommendation no. 5 from Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe – "From Pennrich to Briesnitz – through the Zschonergrund

We actually wanted to go to Bielatal today. Unfortunately, the S-Bahn was delayed again. So in Königstein, our bus had already left. Determined, we hiked over the Kanonenweg to Thürmsdorf. After the Biedermannmausoleum and the Alexander-Thiele-Aussicht, we reached Schloss Thürmsdorf. Here a surprise

Today, at the request of a befriended hiking guide, I led his group. I already did this hike in April 2024 with my group (see also there). That's why I didn't take photos this time. Komoot then added many highlights. Most of the hikers were not familiar with the loop through the Teufelsschluchten (Devil

I wanted to hike in Saxon Switzerland again. It had rained all day the day before. So I chose a tour over wide forest paths. Today, however, it was cool and dry, so the air was very pleasant. After the ascent from the valley, we hiked along the wide Elbleitenweg below the Rauschenstein and the Schrammsteine

Today I was a hiking guide for four sporty employees of a company. The Häntzschelstiege was requested - and mastered by all. We took a long break at the viewpoint on Carolafelsen. Back to the starting point, we went through Wilde Hölle. More pictures can be found on one of my tours from almost two years
