In Alt-Lübars, which has retained its village character to this day, this tour through the rural area in the north of Berlin begins, accompanied by hiking friends @Helga 🎒🥾❤️ and @Prinzessin 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♀️🧎‍♀️🚣‍♀️⛷️🧗‍♂️🌲. On the edge of the village is an Easter spring, which we will save for later

The Grüne Hauptweg 17 follows the course of the Teltowkanal for almost forty kilometers, which was built at the beginning of the 20th century and connects the Dahme in the east with the Havel in the west. Today, the second half between Steglitz and Grünau is on the agenda for hiking friend @Helga 🎒🥾❤️

Directly opposite the train station, the bust of Johann Heinrich August Duncker greets arriving visitors. In 1801, he founded the Rathenow Optical Works and, at the same time, Rathenow's later reputation as the "City of Optics." A few hundred meters further, my tour leads me to the Haesler settlement

As in previous years, hiking guide @Frank Meyer from the Märkischer Wanderbund (Märkischer Hiking Association) has once again chosen a special theme for his group hike on International Women's Day.

With its affordable terraced houses and adjoining allotment gardens, it offered inexpensive housing

At the behest of Crown Prince Frederick William III and his wife, the later much-loved and prematurely deceased Queen Louise, the small village of Paretz was transformed into a Prussian model village. Even more than 200 years later, a stroll through the village reveals the delights of the mostly delicate

Deep in ice and snow, Lake Sacrow awaits the seven intrepid hikers who have accepted the invitation from hiking guide @Su Herrmann of the Märkischer Wanderbund (Märkischer Hiking Association) for a winter tour through the ever-rewarding Königswald (King's Forest) near Potsdam. Fortunately, the forest

Despite wintry temperatures and gloomy weather, hiking guide @Frank Meyer managed to attract almost fifty hikers to the former industrial town of Eberswalde. Along the way, memories of my almost identical hike from 2024 resurfaced: Back then, under spring-like sunshine, there was already fresh greenery

The Doberlug Nativity Trail, which has become a tradition, isn't very long, but it can be easily combined with a stroll through the twin towns of Doberlug and Kirchhain, which are now just a 90-minute train ride from Berlin. As the Saxon post milestone in Kirchhain reveals, the stagecoach took a full
