What is most astounding about Jena is the constant, often abrupt alternation between a small-town, even medieval appearance, and a big-city, even cosmopolitan demeanour. The JenTower (nicknamed the "Cookie Roll" or simply the "Tower") towers over everything; completed in 1972 and at that time the highest…

The snowdrop run is a great popular sport run, with joggers, walkers, hikers, cyclists, with children and seniors and families ... a lot of people! Various route lengths (from 500m for the youngest) to 30km (for the persevering), there are also bicycle routes, everything is well organised, many refreshment…

It shouldn't be too long and we've never been to the memorial (in the middle of the forest) to the forest workers who fell in WWI and WWII. From Klotzsche we went there via the Prießnitz waterfall; we were alone in the forest most of the time.
The old memorial: squat, moss-covered, almost part of the…

Again a nice route on small paths, without major climbs, easy to walk on partly frozen ground; the last run of this winter running series.
With us it was two laps again; at the start of the second we seemed to miss a marker and took a shortcut...never mind.
Gladly again next season: vfl-dresden-buehlau.de

Unfortunately, there was a continuous drizzle, so there was no sunrise, the clouds dragged themselves low over the reservoir and through the forest and soaked everything ... The roads took the rain and iced up in places, but things went well on the snow of the ski magistrale . It was pretty up and down.

Today we also went across open country, and colorful dots moved in long rows across snow-covered meadows in the sun; in the distance even the Krkonoše Mountains appeared out of the clouds. - The first destination, the proud 23m high stone lookout tower Královka (King's Heights), is enthroned above Bed…

Today I was let go alone, so I gave myself the big round to the Smědava Baude (the Wittighaus) 😉, via Nová Louka, the Blatný rybník (mud pond), the old glassmakers' settlement Christiansthal/ Kristiánov, the Knajpa cottage and around the Siechhübel/ Jizera . (If someone wants to take this as a suggestion…

We ran north over the Hoher Kamm and around Bedřichov/ Friedrichswald, on mostly good snow and good trails, and we weren't alone today ;-) The halfway point of the route was marked by Imbiss Hřebínek: a great little snack bar with a huge range of drinks (and some food and cakes).
From there, with a lot…
