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.

With the great weather, I spontaneously decided to go for a walk to the annual car salon in Bad Marienberg, where the surrounding car dealers present their vehicles.
For the sake of simplicity, the lunch break was also moved there and I ate deliciously.
During the walk, I also took another look at the

This tour had been in our plans for over 5 years. Today we met there with @Thomas und Andrea & @Hildegard & Michael for a "group tour". The tour only got 58 experience points from the hiking institute, but while "chatting" along the way, it was secondary that there wasn't a highlight or viewpoint after

Today we went for a hike with a neighbor in the Westerwald region.
It was a circular hike from Heisterberger Weiher to Barstein (also called Bartenstein).
At home, the sky was cloudy, but in the Westerwald it was very foggy, as you can see from the pictures of the hike.
Some sections looked very hazy because

The first short walk around the neighborhood in the new year.
According to the weather app, we were supposed to have glorious sunshine from 2 pm onwards. It didn't happen.

Lahnstein has a Nativity Trail again this year. We met with @Hildegard & Michael – who, along with the Friends of Allerheiligenberg Chapel, primarily initiated the trail – and @Thomas und Andrea in Lahnstein today and walked the route.
The Nativity scenes are mainly set up in the chapels along the Rosary

After a rather limited hiking year in 2025 due to persistent health problems during my (Thomas') first year of retirement – culminating in a bilateral pulmonary embolism at the end of November – today I enjoyed my first longer hike of the year in glorious, and above all, windless Westerwald weather.

On May 12th, there was a post in the Weisel community's WhatsApp channel stating that all paths are currently being checked, and the signage has been repaired and supplemented. Additionally, there are supposed to be minor changes to the route on the slate rounds B and C. That made me curious. After years
