Great round. Yes, it's quite bearable here in the Harz with the current temperatures.

Why are there so many trees in the Harz mountains when the paths are still in the blazing sun? 😞

After the Förster-Ludewig-Platz, I didn't care at first, because the paths were nice and flat. Later, there was a 3.1 km climb to the Wolfswarte. Not thrilling.

However, the view from up there was a reward

Today, the weather was perfect for the ascent to the Brocken from Torfhaus. Along the way, we naturally visited a few stamp points for the Harzer Wandernadel. Four were planned, but HWN 11 Eckerloch would have pushed me to my physical limits, so I turned back after 300 m. Another 700 m lay ahead of me

Checkpoints 12, 75, and 148 are the ones I skipped on my tour yesterday. I only had to adjust the route a little. While doing so, I saw that I could easily incorporate 123.

It was another very nice hike, even though it was too warm for my taste. Fortunately, I was spared the predicted rain.

When I discovered the stamp box for the Harzer Wandernadel last year during my hiking holiday in Braunlage, on my last hike up to the Brocken, by chance (there was dense fog), I became curious about what was hidden behind it. Back in my holiday apartment, I did some research. A stamp box is set up at

Since I had to go into town to take care of administrative tasks for my orienteering club, I also wanted to take the opportunity to see the new murals that I had already seen on FB/Instagram.

So I also passed the festival grounds of the Cranger Kirmes, which only starts at the beginning of August, but where the setup work

Since this was provisionally my last hiking day in the Teutoburg Forest, the route had to be longer. I chose the Furlbach Valley as my destination, where I had already hiked almost exactly five years ago to the day, on 08.06.2021. I had planned a new route, which however had some similarities on the

My hiking vacation in this part of the Teutoburg Forest always ends with the search for cattle in the Wistinghauser Senne. I search because I have always found them in a different area in previous years.

Since continuous rain was forecast for this morning from 9:00 AM and I had never experienced the Senne

After my hike the day before yesterday in the Holter Wald, I took a closer look at the information board in the parking lot. It listed various hiking routes. Not that I needed further suggestions, as I had started my vacation with more planned routes than I could hike in the time, but one must also plan

Today, St. Peter was not on my side. According to the weather report, it was supposed to start raining only around 12:00 PM, but it started already on the way to the start. However, it was pleasing that it paused after I had reached Detmold. So I could really enjoy the sightseeing of the historic old

She had done the tour in 11/25. When I saw it with her, it was clear to me that it was worth hiking. I was not disappointed. Even though the route as a whole is great, I liked the sections along the Landerbach and Ölbach, which despite the misleading name carries

Originally, the route was only planned up to the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Denkmal. After I discovered yesterday that there is more to discover

I'm often out and about in this area and thought I knew all the highlights. So I was all the more surprised last week when I saw the former Bundeswehr shooting range on another Komoot user's tour.

Of course, it was immediately planned into my own route, which was on the agenda today, because after the
