This evening we went on a quite long and quite warm short tour through partly adventurous narrow paths from our holiday resort to Porto Christo.
At the beginning of our tour, we walked past some top-class villas in the town. Impressive in terms of location and amenities!
The destination was the yacht harbor in Porto Christo.

During our short holiday in Mallorca, we did a small round in the evening due to the significantly higher daytime temperatures.
Apart from the way there and back, the coastal sections were really great.

Today, shortly after noon, we spontaneously set off on one of our regular routes.
This time it was the Hirzbachtal valley's turn.
Part of the route goes over the Westerwaldsteig, and in the Korb district, you quickly reach a sign indicating that the Westerwaldsteig is currently closed.

Our tour today on the neighborhood weekend - in really pleasant weather - was really great.
It started with the Kyrill-Pfad. A path about 1,000 meters long where you can understand how immense the storm was.
Fallen trees, uprooted earth, and the slow but steady work of natural reforestation make you see

Today, after lunch, we started the hike to the observation tower on the Wilzenberg near Schmalllenberg because the weather was supposed to get better.
Right after leaving our self-catering house, we took shelter again first.
There were also recurring rain showers at the beginning of the hike.
There was

As every year, we are back on the extended Corpus Christi weekend with our neighborhood group - this time 5 couples + our daughter with her husband and 2 children. For the 26th time. At the beginning of our joint tours, it was mostly 7 families with a total of 14 children. This year we chose Schmallenberg

On May 12th, there was a post in the municipality of Weisel's WhatsApp channel stating that all paths are currently being checked, and the signage is being repaired and supplemented. Additionally, there are supposed to be minor changes to the route of the Schieferrunden B. This made me curious. After

Today, after breakfast, we set off for the traditional Pentecost festival in the neighboring community of Hardt, but we didn't take the shortest route, instead taking a detour via a section of the Westerwaldsteig and the Philosophenweg.
After we arrived in the valley, we realized that it was significantly

Today, on the last day of our short holiday in the Palatinate, we decided on a tour that included sections we knew and areas where we hadn't hiked yet.
The weather today was the most consistent and no longer quite so cool.
The amount of sunshine was also significantly higher compared to the previous days

Today we set off for the Richard-Löwenherz-Weg in Annweiler
after the weather forecast was rather dry.
We didn't know this trail either.
It officially starts at the town hall in Annweiler.
Parking facilities in the immediate vicinity are practically non-existent, so we used a hiking parking lot above the

Today, on our 5th holiday in the Palatinate so far, we made a detour to the Madenburg.
We hadn't been there yet either. The "artistic donkeys" in Eschbach were also really interesting and scattered everywhere.
There is a story about the Rutschbrunnen:
It commemorates the "Eschbacher Rutsch", a historical

A week's holiday over Ascension in the Palatinate and the plan was actually to ride various tours mainly with the e-MTB this time.
We started from home at pleasant cycling temperatures
and packed accordingly light cycling clothing.
Oh dear - it's the Ice Saints week -
On the first day in the Palatinate it

Today we hiked a small loop to show my better half the area of beech firewood where I had already worked half a day yesterday.
Tomorrow we want to load the first 1-2 car trailers of firewood and transport them home.
From the area, we walked a remaining loop in windy but great weather.

Since it wasn't as warm as announced this morning, we set off on a bike tour with our e-bikes for the first time in a long time.
As usual, we mostly didn't use the electric motor.
This works very well with our Specialized Turbo Levo bikes because, unlike many other e-bikes, you don't have to pedal the
