A short evening stroll on our first day in Jandia at the Hotel Buganvilla after dinner to get to know the surroundings. The promenade along our hotel felt like it went on for at least a kilometer to the left and right. And what we noticed was that there were only a few souvenir shops along the way, but

A holiday beach loop is what you could call this little round trip. It had rained a bit during the night, but that didn't stop us at all from walking along the beach after breakfast to the next town - Morro Jable. Magnificent waves, crystal-clear ocean water on the long, fine-sand beach, that could be

Already at the morning departure at half past seven, there was a very special magic in the air. At a crisp 8 degrees near Beyenburg, the day announced itself with a spectacular display: The sky shone in strong orange tones – an

Spontaneous kilometers are the best. The tires are supposed to be changed tomorrow, so I took the car to the tire shop. And then a nice walk in the fresh air with wonderful autumn colors all the way home.. Those were unplanned fresh air kilometers.. have a great Sunday everyone 🥾🥾🥾🥾

Hiking report: Mammutmarsch No. 2 – Promise kept
The title of this report basically contains the reason for today's tour. Some might still remember October 10th: my actual Mammutmarsch came to a premature and painful end back then due to an unfortunate fall. But even in the hospital, I made myself a promise

What a glorious autumn day! You simply have to take advantage of such dream weather, and so this tour in the Bergisches Land came at just the right time. Thanks to the change to daylight saving time, it was still light enough to start at half past seven in the morning. So it was: get up early and, after

Weather luck, canal landscapes and culture in the Münsterland border area:
Actually, heavy rain and strong winds were forecast for today across the entire region. But instead of letting the weather forecasts spoil the weekend, the motto yesterday evening was: study the weather maps and find the right

We started right on time at 8:00 this morning. Autumn has returned with a very fresh breeze of just 4 degrees – honestly, a pair of gloves would have been good! But the first rays of sun made up for the start as the path led me directly up to the sculpture park of Steinhausen Castle.
Good to know about

Actually, my intention was just to get out into the fresh air around 4 p.m. The rain had cleared up. So it was a good opportunity to make a detour up to the apple festival at Bauer Crone. An event completely centered around the apple with everything you can imagine related to apples. And if you want

Today I'm keeping it a bit unspectacular after yesterday's mammoth march. It was another early adventure with a 7 a.m. start. Like some others, I got lost at first due to a lack of markings, but then I was on the right track towards Rombergpark - Herdecke - Hengsteysee. The refreshment stops were again

The perfect start: sunrise over the sea of fog
When the alarm clock rings so early that you're standing at the Quitmannsturm at 7:30 AM in a fresh 10 degrees, it needs good reasons. Nature provided the best today: the calendar promised sunrise at exactly 7:37 AM. Even from the foot of the tower, you could

Stroll through the Landpartie Schloss Wocklum
A spontaneous idea at breakfast provided the perfect impulse for a wonderful excursion in perfect weather today: Two tickets for the Landpartie at Schloss Wocklum near Balve were quickly secured, and a little later the familiar stylish ambience opened up on

A glorious spring and summer day in all its glory, but a clear October day in the Sauerland has a magic all its own. Today I went to the Hochsauerland district for a proper tour of 22.8 kilometers and 710 meters of altitude.
If you have a lot planned, the hour strikes early: The alarm clock rang at 5

A damp, cold veil still hung low in the Sauerland when the Nebeltour (Fog Tour) began this morning at precisely 8:15 AM. Just 15 kilometers from the front door, the Fürwiggetalsperre (Fürwigge Reservoir) offered the starting point for an extended tour to the Nordhelle, with cool but perfect 12 degrees

Today after breakfast, I did the same route as yesterday morning again, this time extended by the small additional path to the harbor. Today, the only big ship was the Fred Olsen ferry.
Useful information about the harbor of Morro Jable: It is a sports and ferry harbor in the south of the island, designed
