In the summer of 2020, I took a multi-day hike along the Rheinsteig, Germany. I hiked in picturesque scenery along various vineyards and the Loreley cliff. Unfortunately, the summer temperatures made the trip very sweaty.

In May 2023 I paddled 17 km / 10 mi down the Schwentine between Plön and Preetz in Germany. Besides windy lakes, there were also idyllic river arms with crystal clear water to discover.

In the summer of 2021 I was on a multi-day paddling trip with my packraft on the Ems river in northern Germany. Unfortunately, I had to break off the tour early, but I was still able to collect some impressions and would like to share them.

I started hiking the Rennsteig from Eisenach in April 2022. With tarp and small luggage, it went a few days through the Thuringian Forest, beautiful views, great experiences and nice acquaintances included.

In early November 2022, I tried to ascend the Zugspitze over the via ferrata “Stopselzieher”. Even though it didn’t work out and I had to turn back, it was a beautiful tour.

This time it goes leisurely with a rented packraft along the Gose and Dove Elbe near Hamburg, Germany.
