Langer Lauf um den Lippesee
Bei meinen Läufen versuche ich, Streckenabschnitte nicht mehrfach zu laufen.
Nach unzähligen Läufen um den und am Lippesee dachte ich immer, mehrere Runden hintereinander wären eine langweilige Sache. Aber tatsächlich scheint es für mein Hirn auf dem ca. 6km langen Rundkurs genügend Abwechslung zu geben, dass es in jeder Runde…

Schluchtensteig Etappe 6 v. Todtmoos n. Wehr
Heute steht die letzte Etappe des Schluchtensteiges an. Mit knapp 24km Länge und Tendenz absteigend hat diese Tour dennoch ca. 460 HM Anstieg und ca. 930 HM Abstieg.
Der Startpunkt ist der alte Kurpark in Todtmoos auf etwa 800Metern Höhe. Von hier geht es direkt bergauf an der Kirche vorbei…

In addition to the tour description (see above), on this last stage I would like to draw attention to a missing person case.
Again and again, notices and flyers with Scarlett Salice's face appear on trees, waypoints, or resting places.
Scarlett from Bad Lippspringe was 26 years old when she was last seen

Well, the sports watch said the hike (5th stage of the Schluchtensteig) was only at the “recreation” level🙄 So today a small challenge had to be met: approx. 270m ascent over 3km in 30°C heat🥵
During the ascent, there were three short walking/standing breaks because the bramble vines on the overgrown

Woken at 6 a.m. by the bells of the cathedral, which was only 100 meters from our accommodation, we set off today after a hearty breakfast a little earlier than usual for the 5th stage of our Schluchtensteig hike.
Shortly after leaving St. Blasien, we climbed steeply for 3 km over mostly natural paths

Today's stage was the least "natural" in terms of ground conditions. More than 90% of the route was on forest roads or asphalt. We only walked on forest paths for three short sections: near the Bildstein and at the beginning of the Schluchsee section, quite early in the tour, and in the Windbergschlucht

Today we went from our accommodation Schattenmühle on the 3rd stage of the Schluchtensteig.
Already on the first two hundred meters, a steep ascent through the forest got us up to temperature - no problem with the still mild temperatures in the morning. With a slight incline, a forest road led us above

The 2nd stage of the Schluchtensteig begins in Blumberg. We started the tour at the Gänselieselbrunnen fountain and after approx. 600m we reached the descent into the Schleifenbachklamm and via an 8m long steep staircase to the impressive Schleifenbach waterfall.
We continued downhill to Achdorf, a small

Since we already enjoyed a multi-day hike so much last year, we are venturing out on a stage hike again this year. We already know part of the Schluchtensteig from the Corona period, now we want to experience it completely. For the sake of simplicity, we have opted for a package deal with accommodation

Rheinfall Schaffhausen - kleine Rundwanderung
Der Rheinfall in Schaffhausen ist ein riesiger Wasserfall am Hochrhein und wahrlich ein aufregendes Naturschauspiel. Der imposante Wasserfall hat eine Höhe von 23 Metern und eine Breite von 150 Metern. Im Sommer (mittlerer Sommerabfluss) stürzen um die 600 Kubikmeter Wasser pro Sekunde in die Tiefe.
Momentan herrscht gerade Niedrigwasser, allerdings…

Auf der Spur des Warrior Hike 2026 (50km)
Sehr anspruchsvolle Rundwanderung ausgehend vom Schiedersee. Wegführung größtenteils auf Abschnitten bekannter Wanderwege wie z.B. Emmerweg, Lipperlandweg und Niesetalweg.
Bzgl. des Anspruchs eine Anmerkung: Die Angabe auf der offiziellen Website bzgl. des Gesamtanstiegs ist deutlich untertrieben. Statt der angegebenen knapp 800 HM waren es tatsächlich ca. 1300 HM (gemessen mit mehreren…

As a training unit for an upcoming extreme hike, we "simply" retraced the 50km loop of the Warrior Hike 2026.
The first quarter of the route was unfortunately a bit too much asphalt and forest highway. From Lügde, where we took a short break at a kiosk in the Emmerauenpark, because we couldn't resist

On a slightly too warm day, we went for a good cause on the longest of the possible distances at the Funlauf Wewer: 14.5km. The route is quite demanding in terms of profile (long climbs) and surface (stony, uneven forest paths).

At the start of the run, I unexpectedly (thanks to the "rain radar") got nicely wet, but at the end, everything was dry - except shoes, socks, and feet 😝
