Last weekend, the Sassnitz pier was barely recognizable, as the wintry spectacle attracted countless people who streamed single file towards the lighthouse. As impressive as this sight was, there was hardly any time to truly absorb the special atmosphere.
That's why I went back to Sassnitz early this

To conclude our short trip to the Harz Mountains, this tour took us to Blankenburg. The Regenstein Castle ruins were originally on our itinerary – a place that always impresses. However, due to the weather, it was closed that day. So we changed our plans – and that's precisely how this surprisingly diverse

This tour marks the start of my final accompanying collection within my circumnavigation of Germany on foot.

I'm consciously using winter as a break from my circumnavigation of Germany – not to complete projects, but to reorganize and rethink them. Over the past weeks and months, it's become increasingly clear to me that many of my ideas and long-term projects, while they've been around for a while, have never

This winter has held a surprising number of surprises and impressive natural phenomena in store for Northern Germany.
Today's hike took us to the southernmost tip of the island – to Palmer Ort.
The starting point was Maltzien, from where the path led first to the Maltzien Lower Light. Even here, the first
