Sometimes things don’t go as planned. We’re on our way to the Wolfsburg City Museum M2K. We want to visit the exhibition “Young City in Quick Strokes: The Wolfsburg Sketches of Hans Kreuzer.” The city museum is supposed to be open today from 11 am to 6 pm – or so we thought. While I’m taking a few photos of
As a fan of ancient Rome, visiting the Roman-Germanic battlefield of Harzhorn is a must. Essentially, I was just waiting for good weather. Last Saturday, it finally arrived. With sunny 25 degrees forecasted, there are no more excuses. The fact that the Harzhorn Discovery Trail can also be incorporated into a beautiful hike makes the whole experience even more attractive.
Compared to Crete, Chalkidiki may not be known as a hiking destination. However, in my opinion, it is worth exploring parts of the island on foot. Since we are exclusively using public transportation, we embark on two excursions. The first one takes us to the mountain village of Kassandrino. The second hike follows the Kassandra mountain trail. We also undertake
The Huy (pronounced “Hüh”, from Old High German for height) in Saxony-Anhalt is a ridge in the foothills of the northern Harz Mountains. It rises up to 314 meters high and is still largely unknown as a hiking area. However, there are some sights to discover on well-marked geological hiking trails. For example, the Huy-Fallstein claims to be the “largest
After all the tours I have taken in the last few years, I am always surprised that there is something new for me to discover too. Last Sunday we went to Langenstein. I couldn’t believe what there was to discover here. In addition to the cave dwellings, there is a castle and castle park, a concentration camp memorial, the Hoppelberg
This Saturday we are going to Hildesheim again. We meet at the train station, from there we go to the Gasthaus Kupferschmiede. This is where our today’s tour starts. Right at the game gate next to the restaurant we are magically captivated by the goats. The enclosure is an attraction for young families. It quickly becomes clear that the goats
On this Sunday, I had actually planned to go to the Harz mountains, but Mr. Weselsky didn’t want to go:-( So, my friends from the Harz simply came to me instead. In advance, I naturally wondered what I could offer the two experienced and spoiled hikers with a clear conscience. This consideration led me to Königslutter’s magnificent building, the Imperial
Hiking in the Allgäu region has its charm in every season. In spring, the blooming meadows; in summer, the happy cows; in autumn, the colorful foliage; and in winter, the sun. Yes, we had little snow, but plenty of sunshine. Particularly beautiful are the sunrises and sunsets in the clear winter air. It’s fitting that the “aussichtsreich” premium hiking trails
The Four Hills Tournament, which starts every year around the turn of the year and ends in the first week of January, is something I have been following since I was a child. Anyone who has experienced it knows that sporting events live on site are a completely different experience than the Sofaloge could ever offer. For the first time,
It rarely happens, but when it does: snow in the pre-Christmas season. Right on time for the beginning of the Christmas month of December, the white beauty falls from the sky. With a powdery layer on the streets, the Christmas spirit sets in. The Advent season couldn’t start any better. And when on the first of December, it’s said, “Magni
