Obstland zwischen Lühe und Elbe
Viele Apfelplantagen, aber auch Kirschen und Birnen, Kanäle und kleine Teiche. Schiffsverkehr auf der Elbe und ein Imbiss am Lühe-Anleger. Wege auf dem Deich, eine längere Pause mit einem leckeren Essen und am Nachbartisch Gespräche wie bei Loriot. Rückweg an der Lühe.

In the best weather, we first walked 5 km through the various orchards today. Admittedly, they are almost exclusively apples, but today we also saw sections with cherries and also pears.
In Lühe, we reached the Elbe dike, which we initially walked along to the Lühe ferry landing. At the landing, there

A route description is unnecessary at 2.5 km. But the old town of Stade speaks for itself. The southern part of this tour is still quite ordinary, but at the latest at the Wilhadi Church we immersed ourselves in the fascination of Stade's old town. One historic facade after another. The streets are partly

Simply enjoy the flat country. At the beginning, our path led straight through vast apple orchards, which are a landmark of the Altes Land. You can see quite a bit of how the apple harvest is proceeding, which is currently in full swing. The posters put up also tell of the problems faced by fruit farmers

I have been to the Bober river a few times now, but never in this region. It is rather flat land, with inclines only in the river valley or on a historical ringwall.
The tour starts at the train station in Małomice (Mallmitz) and leads through the town to a Polish-Catholic church or chapel (Parish of

The Liebethaler Grund and the Lohmener Klamm were on the agenda today. And even though it is very beautiful there, we didn't just want to hike back and forth in the valley.
So we added the somewhat dreary road section from Bonnewitz to the beginning of the tour, which was then ticked off. The sun was

It was supposed to be a tour to two waterfalls, but at most there were one and a half. The lack of water is also noticeable here. The river through Hejnice, the Smědá (Pol. Witka; Ger. Wittig), also carries little water; at one point we saw a large sandbank.
The parking lot at the Basilica now requires

Summer is slowly saying goodbye and it was time to repeat a tour from February 2022, in the opposite direction, which gives completely new impressions in addition to those based on a completely different season. The weather was ideal today, just over 20 degrees and the wind also held back, quite different

On the one hand, we still have August, and that is definitely summer. On the last 10 km, we also had strong summer sun.
On the other hand, it already looks and feels autumnal in many places. In that respect, summer is already a thing of the past.
And as Peter Maffay sings so beautifully? "I was 16 and

Zschornoer Wald bei Eichwege
Heidewald! Waldheide! 80% der Strecke blühende Heide. Und es könnte in den nächsten Tagen noch mehr blühen und bei Sonnenschein noch stärker wirken. Klare Empfehlung!

First of all, many thanks to @Wetterfrosch2209 for the suggestion for this tour.
We didn't have sun, but it was dry, because it was raining in our home region. We were completely unfamiliar with this area before and it is truly impressive. Of the 10 km, at least 8 km had more or less blooming heather

Afterwards, we hike about 10 km through the forest, completely different from yesterday. Twice today we leave the marked path because it is heavily

With just over 30°C, it wasn't supposed to be a big hike, and longer ascents were also to be avoided. That's why the choice fell on the Spreetal in Schirgiswalde and Kirschau. On a loop, however, it's unavoidable to leave the valley at times, when - as in this case - there are no paths on both sides

A place called Königreich requires a release of the tour. We started in Estebrügge at the church, which has a strangely twisted tower. We crossed the Este via a swing bridge and walked along the dike path, first on the right side, later on the left.
Our destination was Harmshof. There is a nice farm caf
