The start was today at Wiesthal station... and what a start 😉 After a few minutes of warming up, things got going 🤩 Cold fingers in the morning were replaced by glowing calves... I thought when looking from below "not seriously, right?", but "steep uphill" was replaced by "long uphill" and later again

Today I used the regional train again and chose Fulda as my destination. Between 10:30 and 13:00 (arrival/departure from Fulda main station), I revisited some of my favorite spots in Fulda. I also enjoyed a delicious lunch and a coffee to go to finish. I didn't find the remnants of the 2023 State Garden

After the persistent rain stopped at midday, the hike could begin from the Schweinheim Aumühlstraße bus stop. The trail led uphill towards Stengerts Tower, a path strewn with large, moss-covered stones. Continuing along forest paths, we reached the Vespereiche (Breakfast Oak). However, it was still too

Dry cold and sunshine framed today's local loop. It was more of a test run... pure nature and data galore 🙈😃 I tested three new merino wool garments and three different tour recording options (Komoot on my phone, WorkOutdoors, and IGPSport). What wouldn't one do for their nice colleagues? 😂 All the

Enjoying the snow one last time (at least higher up)... that's today's motto 🤩 It was time again for the challenging Grenzsteinweg trail past the Dreimärker "Speckstein" (a boundary marker) up towards Eichelsbach. However, before reaching the health resort, I turned right (hoddrim 😂) onto smaller paths

Dreamlike weather conditions... Cold, dry, ground fog, sunshine, backlighting, and a touch of snow ❄️😎

That pretty much says it all, and I hope everyone who had time today got outside 😉 Just the way I like it, it was a short walk starting and ending right at my front door. And right from the beginning

This morning's hike surprised me with fantastic lighting conditions... a mix of morning mist and backlighting 😎 Please don't follow the ascent from Buschgraben! It's an "old" path that's practically non-existent and hardly ever used anymore. But if you enjoy connecting "off-road" paths and extending

Looking for a perfect example of a dreamy autumn day? Today was one of them! With ideal autumn conditions, offering everything you could wish for (sunbeams, play of light and refraction, autumn colors, fallen leaves, a shower of leaves from the trees, etc.), my hiking boots were put to use near the Erlenbach

After the overnight rain, a sunbath, including a fresh haircut (yes... it was quite windy at times), amidst glorious autumn colors was on today's wish list. And there was plenty of everything! 😃 I took the DT train to MIL station and off I went. Passing the "Gasthaus zum Riesen" (Inn of the Giant) and

A weekend getaway for six in enchanting Alsace (Vosges Mountains)... and the highlight was this leisurely hike starting from Ribeauvillé. The weather forecast predicted almost continuous rain until the morning of the hike. But we had the wind on our side, and it blessed us with such unexpectedly perfect
