Algarve - und der Weg nach Westen 🚶🚶
26.11. – Ein Tag zwischen Tavira, Tina Turner und strahlender Sonne
26. November, Frühstückszeit. Kaum sitzen wir, haut der Lautsprecher gleich mehrere Songs von Tina Turner raus. Zufall? Wohl eher nicht – heute wäre die Grande Dame 85 Jahre alt geworden.
Wir – mein Kompagnon und ich – hatten heute…

Robinson Club Quinta da Ria – Golf idyll in a bird paradise, but not an Eldorado for hikers
Around 20 kilometers from the Spanish border, in the Algarve, lies the Robinson Club Quinta da Ria – a place that will probably make golfers' hearts beat faster than hikers'.
But to escape the winter temperatures

When old men wax lyrical…
More than 50 years ago, my buddy did his "service of honor" with the border troops in Lehesten. Now, after such a long time, he wanted to make his journey into the past one more time. Already at the village fountain, the first elderly man was approached – and successfully at

Never think you have thought, because the thinking of thoughts is thoughtless thinking.
What a tour that was...
There, two "death sticks" thought they could easily manage this hiking tour – and five kilometers before the finish, one of us was more than just exhausted. The body simply didn't want to go

Who ever gets the chance to go on a tour to the kingdom of heaven...?
Two pensioners had the opportunity today and were more than happy with the result.
In this case, the kingdom of heaven is a place on a rock above the Saale and with a fantastic view. The food and beer were excellent and a bit more expensive

The sun was shining, the thermometer was already scratching 20 degrees – and it was supposed to stay that way all day. So, laced up hiking boots and off we went, further and further inland. We didn't have a specific destination, only a levada was fixed. Its name and possible impressions? Completely unknown

The weather prophet promised good weather – and it was about time. In the last few days, we had to stay in the immediate vicinity and more frequently seek out gastronomic "shelters" – all because of the rain.
With a pleasant 18 degrees and sunshine, we set off today, always heading east. Past the harbor

November 26th, breakfast time. We'd barely sat down when the speaker started blasting several Tina Turner songs. Coincidence? Hardly – today would have been the grande dame's 85th birthday.
My partner and I had the "brilliant" idea of walking towards Faro. Originally, we wanted to start with a rental
