Wow🤩

This tour offers everything I love about the Harz, except for Brocken and the steam train😅:

this variety 🤩

- vast landscapes

- dense forest

- barren areas

- green areas

- paths along the ditches

- wide paths

- narrow paths

- bumps

- steep ascents and descents

- paths with scree, rock, stone, sand

Today was supposed to be a relaxed tour, well, that was the plan, but as the Harz is...

The Bodetal and the Rosstrappe are not as easy to walk as you might think. So please don't underestimate them 🙏. It often goes over larger and smaller boulders, past narrow sections, and after today's rain, it became

2nd and last stage 😉.

This stage started with what was for me the most beautiful section of the trail. Simply Wow🤩 the path along the Selke and then the sun also came into the valley🫠🤩🫠.

Otherwise, it was again a very varied stage, with forest, field, very many wide paths, but also beautiful narrower

Finally started 🥳.

I don't even know how many years the Selketalstieg has been on my to-do list.🙆‍♀️

After a 2-hour journey 🤪 by bus, I could finally start.

The first 4 km were wonderful. It was crisp cold, the sun was shining and it was pleasantly along fields.

I desperately needed the good mood, because

I already knew Quedlinburg, but a walk around on the day of arrival definitely doesn't hurt 😉

Quedlinburg is a cute little town with many half-timbered houses, small shops, and many cafés.

The last "nose" approx. 2 km can safely be omitted. I just had to go to the supermarket 😅.

Here I have my base camp

I haven't been here in so long and the Neyetalsperre is sooo beautiful 🫠🤩. Easter Monday and finally sun, it was going to get crowded. So, first we went straight along the reservoir, while NRW was still asleep😉 and the 2nd round over the top afterwards, when the last day-tripper was also out and about

For today, @Moni Wildi and @Martin Outdoor🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚲⚒️ had suggested this beautiful loop. We started, in good spirits despite the announced April weather, at the Langer Kamp parking lot in Altena. Attention, the right side of the lot is free, the left side is subject to a fee, as seen coming from the

I had been planning the Deilbachsteig for a while. The mixed reviews here on Komoot had put me off. Today it was time for me to "form an opinion". Yes, it has extremely much asphalt, especially the Deilbachtalradweg with the subsequent industrial area is a bit annoying 🤪, but it also has great forest

I last did the Herscheider Rundweg in Feb '22, with various climbing sections over deadwood and fallen trees. After seeing recently on Komoot that the paths are now apparently clear, it was clear: I wanted to go here again. What a beautiful circular trail with many nice views and forest sections. It

The weather forecast suggested this asphalt-heavy round. The Kemnader See is well-suited for every means of transport. There are separate lanes for pedestrians, inline skaters, and cyclists. While it gets quite crowded there on weekends, during the week you can enjoy the tranquility by the lake and the
