Ich bin Wanderführer für die Beschaulichen und Sportlichen.
Einmal im Jahr habe ich eine Bustour, mit ca.50 Wanderern, organisiert. Gäste waren immer willkommen. Leider bekommen wir den Bus nicht mehr voll und haben es eingestellt.
Heute wandere ich noch ca. 1000-1500 km in der Umgebung oder den Urlaubsgebieten.
In der näheren Umgebung organisiere ich monatlich Touren mit Freunden.
Ab und zu geht es mit 4-8 Gleichgesinnten für 2-3 Tage in Kurzurlaub, um schöne Gärten,Museen und Städte zu besichtigen.
Komoot benutze ich seit 2018 - dort kurz angetestet - 2019 sporadisch und ab 2020 dann nur noch mit Komoot.,
Meine Wanderungen bestehen nach Möglichkeit zu 90-95% aus naturnahen Wegen - Asphalt meiden.
Bei Themenwegen versuche ich - wenn möglich - die Asphaltpassagen zu umgehen.
Im Urlaub mit meiner Frau max. 10 km pro Tour. Ansonsten mit der kleinen, zu Corona Zeiten gegründeten Gruppe, Touren von 15-20 km. Alleine auch länger. Gehe, wenn möglich einmal die Woche auf Tour mit oder ohne TSV.
Ausfall durch Hüft-OP Ende 2019
Die 800. Komoot Tour habe ich im September 2025 vollendet

First outing of the year, a short stroll through Südpark.
Starting at the parking lot by the Südpark Cafe.
From the parking lot, we headed straight into the slightly snowy park. First, we walked around the Deichsee (dike lake), along the promenade, past the fantastic playground and the Deichgraf (dike

Today, for our year-end hike, there were six of us.
We took the train from Hochdahl to Hösel. Connections worked perfectly.
From the train station, we walked briefly along the access road and immediately entered the beautiful winter forest. We then hiked 1.5 km on various paths, some wider, some quite

We were still missing a few things for the weekend, so we headed into town. First to the weekly market, which only had two or three stalls. Clothes, cheese, and meat.
First to the butcher, then to the REWE supermarket and the newsagent. Finished our round, we went to the Pyramid Market. It's located around

As every year on Boxing Day, we meet up with the core group for lunch. Each time we choose a different restaurant. It should be nearby. This time it was the Indian restaurant 'Maha Vishnu' on the edge of the Ohligser Heide.
This time there were only four of us, as one couple moved away and decided to

Today was the last hike before Christmas. There were four of us: Gudrun, Bernd, Frank, and me. As long as the S8 train is still running, we decided to do a hike nearby.
From Gerresheim, we took bus 730 to Johann-Neuberger Strasse.
From the bus stop, it's less than 10 meters into the woods. The trail immediately

We had three hours to spare before our next appointment, so we headed to Grünewald Castle. We parked at the Fauna Bird Park.
From the parking lot, it's about 900 meters to the castle. We walked past the Fauna, the light tower, and the Meinsma farm with its farm shop.
Entrance fee: €10

Just a heads-up: The altitude and speed readings aren't accurate – due to the indoor setting.
On the way home from Arnhem, I made a stop at the Overloon War Museum. It's only a few kilometers from the motorway to Venlo.
The museum has different sections.
In the first hall, there's a film providing an overview

Around 5 pm we got hungry, so we headed into town. From the hotel, we went straight through the Sabelspoort gate and onto the market.
We didn't get far before discovering a small East African restaurant – simple on the outside, but typically African inside. Since we like to try new things – we don't go

Part 1: First, a short hike through two beautiful parks in the north of Arnhem.
We took the bus from the hotel to Willemsplein and started our walk from there. A short walk along the road, under the railway bridge, and we were already in the lovely Sonsbeek Park. Today we only took the lower paths – no

Jürgen and I met up today for a snowshoe hike. We took the train from Hochdahl to Ennepetal. Since both trains were delayed, we made our connection without any problems 😊
We had to adjust our planned route in three places because either the path was blocked by fallen trees, or the powder snow was piled
