Today we needed a short tour, and since the Pott-Express train makes several stops along the way, it dropped us off near Oelde.
Among other things, we were headed to the "Geisterholz" (Ghost Wood) forest, which I'd heard about somewhere before.
Leaving the town, we followed a pretty avenue and passed the

We're planning to hike the Lipperlandweg trail in 2026.
So today we went to the area to have a look around.
We started in Schieder, from where we walked through the village for a bit before heading into the forest.
The climb to the Kahlenberg Tower is tough, but I'd already hiked it four years ago, so I

After a long break due to moving, we finally got back on the trails today, this time near Büren, the gateway to the Sauerland region. This was clearly reflected in the landscape and the trails.
We started at the Forstweg Ringelstein hiking parking lot.
There, we first checked out the former signal box

Man lernt ja so viel beim Wandern!
Bei dieser Tour habe ich zB gelernt, dass es "Hoechst" als Chemieunternehmen gibt bzw gab, ein Stadtteil von Frankfurt heißt wiederum "Höchst" und ein solches "Höchst" gibt es im Odenwald gleich nochmal.
Los ging es am Bahnhof von Höchst. Die Wanderung stammt aus den

In 2023 haben wir zwei Wanderungen zum Rotenfels bei Bad Münster am Stein gemacht. Schon damals war uns die markante Felsformation auf der anderen Seite de Nahe aufgefallen: Rheingrafenstein mit der Ruine.
Seither stand fest: wir müssen nochmal herkommen und die Felsen in Angriff nehmen. Dass es bis

Unseren Urlaub haben wir dieses Jahr in Unterammergau verbracht und dabei einige Ausflüge und natürlich Wanderungen unternommen. Dafür liegt der kleine Ort wirklich ideal. Wir haben im Vorfeld einige Male auf maps geschaut und dabei ein paar spannende Orte entdeckt.
Den Anfang machte eine Mini-Wanderung

The Rheinsteig trail is likely to become one of our long-term projects. We haven't managed more than one or two stages per year so far, mainly due to the long journey. That makes it all the more wonderful when the opportunity for a new stage arises.
This is how we came to hike stage 19 during our vacation

For our final hike on the Blogger Hike 2025 weekend, we tackled the "Traumschleife Kirschweiler Festung" (Kirschweiler Fortress Dream Loop), which, at 9 km in length, is mid-range, just like the "Lecker Pfädchen." However, we didn't hike the entire Traumschleife, but a variant from Allenbach to Kirschweiler

Der Wald und die Wege bei Harth bei Büren zeugen deutlich davon, dass sich hier das Tor zum Sauerland befindet.

First off: The hike was 16.5 km long, not 14.9 km as stated above. I forgot to restart my watch twice. Hence the discrepancy.
We've encountered the Ahornweg (Maple Trail) so many times on hikes in the region, but it was always clear: we had to hike the whole thing sometime.
So today we started. We began
