About rotagivaN
Willst du schnell gehen, musst du alleine gehen.
Willst du weit gehen, musst du in Gemeinschaft gehen.
Ohne den Weg erreichst du das Ziel nicht. Du kannst den Weg als notwendiges Übel betrachten oder als etwas, aus dem du lernst und an dem du wächst.
Beim Wandern und im Sport ist das Ziel letztlich nur ein navigatorischer oder logistischer Punkt am Ende einer Etappe, von dem aus die nächste beginnt. In Wahrheit geht es hier darum, den Weg zu genießen. Der Weg ist das eigentliche Ziel.

After 16 days on the Kammweg, we have the rest of the week off. We'll spend it in Sellin on Rügen for passive relaxation and regeneration. A look through my Rügen collection revealed that @A🚶🏽♂️L🚴🏼♂️E🏃🏽♂️X had already explored two routes for Komoot inline skaters. Based on a website whose link

Nachdem sich der Schreck, ob wir ein Schlaflager bekommen, gelegt hatte, stellte sich das Zimmer als sehr komfortabel, großräumig und schön heraus. Meine liebe Frau hatte gestern Geburtstag. Da aus dem erhofften Geburtstagsdinner nichts wurde, bestellte ich beim Pizzalieferanten auch eine Flasche Rotwein

Our landlady truly mothered us. It was a very warm-hearted place to stay. She drove us back to the parking lot of the Burgstein ruins, where we had been picked up the evening before.
First, we climbed up to the castle and looked at the ruins. Then we continued along narrow paths through the forest. Meanwhile

The weather was very kind to us again today: It was sunny with temperatures between 8 and 20°C. Forest, valley, and distant views alternated again. It's precisely this mix that makes the Kammweg so appealing. In the forest, there were again many sections where the forest floor was completely covered

Shortly before we were about to set off, it started to rain. That hadn't been forecast. So I put on my shorts and packed my long pants along with my other waterproof gear. Should I unpack everything again? A glance at the rain radar revealed that the rainy area would pass in an hour and a half. So, I

As we said goodbye, our landlady said it was only foggy up here, as unimaginable as it was, but the sun was shining in the valley. "Oh yes, you're hiking along the ridge."
Fog doesn't bother us. In the forest, you can't see far anyway. A mystical atmosphere arises that stimulates the imagination.

Our alarm clock was allowed a rest today. The local roosters took over its duties. How long has it been since we were woken up by the crowing of roosters?
In the morning, we learned from our landlady that when the locals call it "Kammweg," they mean the historic ridge path along the ridgeline of the Ore

The length of the stages is determined by the overnight stays organized by my wife. Today's stage was a short one, just 14 km, but it was still a challenging one. This was probably due to the elevation gain and yesterday's 30 km. As strenuous as it was, it was also beautiful.
Our alarm clock outdid itself

On our day off yesterday, we really only spent time in bed, at the restaurant, and in the sauna. That was good for a change.
I dedicate this stage to my grandpa. Our destination today, Johanngeorgenstadt, is about 20 km south of Oberschlema (now Bad Schlema) near Schneeberg. My grandpa was a miner there

My daughter studies in Greifswald, which she says is Hogwarts. Since the Hogwarts Express line needs renovation after so long, making it a bit of an HGW odyssey until April, we have to go to the mountains to find a way to get there. Beforehand, she sent me a picture of Caspar David Friedrich's Eldena
