Pferde, Baumarkt, Rhein und Gockelburg
Besuch der Przewalski-Pferde im Oberwald, Werkzeug kaufen für "meine" Baumscheibe.
Wegen der großen Hitze dann erst am nächsten Tag weiter über die Auen zum Rhein mit einem "Maxauer Halbe" in der Gockelburg.

der Zoologische Stadtgarten Karlsruhe und die Flucht vor der Hitze
Die dichte Bebauung einer Stadt stellt bei wolkenlosem Himmel und hohen Temperaturen zusätzliche Anforderungen an die Routenfindung.

The dense development in a city has many advantages. I don't mean the ecological and economic aspects here. In the city, for example, there are many quiet areas. An aspect that should not be neglected in the Upper Rhine Graben near Karlsruhe. I have often been annoyed by the noise of expressways and

Most of the time I was on the well-developed cycle path, which for the most part uses the infrastructure of the first Murgtalstraße from the 19th century, which is no longer needed since the construction of the new state road. This is also where the famous "Tour de Murg" from Freudenstadt to Rastatt

„Durch die Geschichte der Stolpersteine" - ADFC Karlsruhe
"Diese Tour ist mehr als eine Fahrradtour: Sie ist eine Einladung zum Innehalten, zum Erinnern und zum bewussten Wahrnehmen der Geschichte direkt vor unserer Haustür." schrieb der ADFC ganz zu Recht.
Eine professionell geplante Runde mit sorgfältig recherchierten und perfekt vorgetragenen Fakten. Mit Anfahrt zum ADFC-Büro in der Welfenstraße und…

🚴♀️Karlsruhe with stories: on the trail of the stumbling blocks
In Karlsruhe, places of remembrance lie on squares, in front of houses, and on everyday paths, which are easily overlooked. This bike tour leads us to selected stumbling blocks and makes the personal fates hidden behind them visible. The

I had carefully planned the tour. Here and there, however, I had to spontaneously deviate from the plan, and that was a good thing.
Once again, I found places that touched me deeply in part. An important point was that I was mostly alone there.
Furthermore, it had rained all night and there was water everywhere

One of the reasons to go to Mainz was that I hadn't been there yet.
The settlement dates back to the Romans and accordingly, a lot of history lurks everywhere.
In addition, there is a cathedral and the famous Gutenberg, who was born in Mainz and also died there in 1468.
I only touched upon an inland dune

When choosing our apartment many years ago, the connection to public transport also played a big role. And even there, I might have overdone it again, one could say. At Tullastraße is the largest railway depot of the KVV. Therefore, the S7 (to Achern) and S8 (to Freudenstadt or even to Bondorf) trains

Otherwise, you don't really need navigation. The round is excellently marked.

In August 2025, I had planned this route for a get-together with @Andi. We ended up choosing a different path then.
This year, May already has August-like characteristics. This is also why I optimized the route in the shade (thank God, because my original plan was insufficient in that regard).

Ina suggests I go to the market to do some shopping. While she prepares the shopping list I requested over breakfast, I make a plan to turn it into a walk. I decide to explore a few streets and paths I had never looked into before. Because I've found that a delightful sensation can lurk anywhere. A beautiful

First, I head for "my stairs" at the bridge of the former B10 over the railway tracks. They need to be thoroughly cleared again.
The old road, which was recently still busy with pedestrians and dog walkers, is increasingly being taken over by the grasses and bushes growing there. But my stairs lead at

# Horses
First, I read on tagesschau.de/wissen/tiere/renaturierung-pferde-auswilderung-100.html about the reintroduction project in Kazakhstan (where the horses were also settled in the Black Forest National Park). Since I know that the Karlsruhe Zoo is involved in breeding, I thought I could stop by
