Despite some cancellations due to illness and weather, 30 cheerful hikers still set off on their annual end-of-year hike right from our doorstep. The weather initially seemed to be playing tricks on us, as the path to the meeting point and up into the Ville hills was dangerously slippery in places. Fortunately

We actually wanted to hike in the Eifel today. But Deutsche Bahn wasn't really interested in taking us there. So @RenaU and @Renate G. spontaneously changed their minds and chose this beautiful local tour. Why travel far away when the good things are so close?

Today, we hiked the crowning stage of the Malerweg trail, into the Wolfsschlucht Gorge, climbing narrow steps to the Hockstein, where we enjoyed a stunning view of Hognstein Castle. We had lunch on the banks of the Elbe, and then climbed (700 steps, they say) to the national park's most famous rock formation

A wonderful stop with a magnificent view awaited us. Fantastic views awaited us at Schanzberg, where Napoleon once stationed his cannons. Then we descended
