There are tours that you will never forget in your life… the one from October 2, 2025, is one of them - I was on the Glaubenberg for the first time. Back then, it was still frosty, the moorland was slightly frozen, and the route impressively showed me that 'steep & narrow' can still be intensified

The decision had actually already been made: That’s enough for today. Close the office door, get in the car, and then do absolutely nothing. Okay, fine… a nice dinner would have been possible. But then it would definitely have been the end of the workday.
But as it happens: In the rush hour traffic jam

The weather is magnificent and I have just successfully mastered the Gemmiwand for the second time. So what should impress me about a small viewing tower in the middle of the forest? Exactly… this small viewing tower in the middle of the forest…😅
The plan is simple: I start in Läufelfingen and hike over

Aller guten Dinge sind drei…
Am 11. Oktober 2025 hatte ich meine Gemmi-Premiere. Für mich damals schon ein kleines Abenteuer. Seither war ich im Winter noch einmal oben – allerdings in der deutlich gemütlicheren Gondeli-Variante. Aber eben aller guten Dinge sind bekanntlich drei. Und so stehe ich heute

🇨🇭Trans Swiss Trail Etappe 4 von Saignelégier nach St. Imier
Von den weiten Freiberger Weiden geht es heute zum Mont Soleil, wo Windräder und Solarzellen für reichlich Zukunft sorgen. Dazwischen begegnen mir pensionierte Pferde, mächtige Tannen und zum Schluss eine traditionsreiche Uhrenstadt. Langweilig wird es auf dieser Juratour definitiv nicht.

The fourth stage of the Trans Swiss Trail takes me from Saignelégier to St-Imier and shows once again that the Jura is not just about pastures and cows, but also has a great deal of future potential.
Saignelégier is located at 978 meters on a wide saddle of the Jura plateau. It's hard to believe that

Even paw-some friends can't avoid dental care. So today, the first item on the agenda is an appointment at the Niederdorf Dental Clinic. It has to be done… But at least a beautiful hike home awaits afterwards. That's much more motivating than the sentence: "Please open wide again." 😉🦷

The Aare river path is definitely not one of those routes where you can boast about heroic altitude meters. Instead, it scores with something completely different: a cozy babbling, shady riverside paths, and the pleasant certainty that the most you'll have to argue about is with a particularly stubborn

When the heat drives even sleep away, only one thing helps: getting up earlier than the sun. Daybreak – and the most pleasant hour of the day begins today already shortly after 3:00 AM. Although… one can hardly speak of "day" at this hour. And the "awakening" that the term "daybreak" somehow implies

I've been thinking for a long time about where I could find the "coolest" round this evening. Although "cool" is a very flexible term right now 😅. As I leave the pleasantly temperate hallway, it certainly feels more like 40 degrees than a cozy summer evening.
After a short consideration, I make a spontaneous

Ahead of me lie around 21 kilometers and about 1,100 meters of elevation gain, but in return, rewards

Thunderstorm or not…
Apparently, nobody knows for sure at the moment. The weather app is not entirely in agreement, the sky looks undecided, and so I decide to simply stay a little closer to my comfort zone today.
We start at the valley station of the Weissensteinbahn in Oberdorf. However, the cable car
