There are days that feel just perfect—made for an adventure that soothes the soul and warms the heart. Our hike above Goslar was exactly one of those days, filled with breathtaking views, unforgettable moments, and a delightful touch of Christmas magic. The Ascent to the Paragliding Meadow – Freedom Over Goslar Our journey begins with a gentle ascent through the
Ever heard of Harsleben? No? Me neither before now. Yet, it’s worth keeping this place in mind. Why? Well, that’s where the Thekenberg is. However, to be fair, there’s no beer on the Thekenberg. But if you keep hiking towards Halberstadt, then, yes, there are a few more highlights waiting for you: the Fünffingerfelsen (Five Finger Rock), the Klusfelsen, the
Since the last hikes were quite strenuous, partly due to the humid and warm weather, we want to take it a bit easier today. Today’s destinations are the Kragenalm and the Kundler Klamm. But, as is often the case in the mountains, even a seemingly short distance can be more challenging than expected. Comatose on the Reflection Trail We start
On our second-to-last hiking day, we experience another tour of superlatives. We use the Schatzberg cable car for the “ascent” up the mountain. Arriving at the parking lot, we are initially confused but pleasantly surprised: parking here is free of charge. We look around several times to be sure. But there’s no sign with parking fees to be seen anywhere.
It was one of those days when the mountain called us. Fresh and full of energy, we began our ascent at the mid-station of the Wiedersbergerhornbahn. With the Alpbachtal Card, we rode up to the mid-station for free. Here, our tour began. Towering above us, the majestic Wiedersbergerhorn reached into the sky. Even in the first few steps, we could
At the beginning of my vacation, I experienced an unforgettable adventure in the Kaiserklamm, one of the most picturesque gorges in Tyrol. My goal was a hike from the historic Kaiserhaus to the Erzherzog-Johann-Klause. A route that led me not only through breathtaking natural scenery but also through the fascinating history of the region. The Start: Kaiserhaus and the Path
About half an hour into our hike, it becomes clear once again: I’m spoiled. Finding new challenges or highlights is getting harder. But surprises do come unexpectedly. So it was on our hike along the Pisserbach. Yes, that’s really its name. Historically, the stream marked the boundary between the former Duchy of Brunswick and the Kingdom of Hanover. But after
After a long time, I’m visiting Bad Harzburg again. Alongside what was supposed to be a short hike, a concert at the Bad Harzburg Stud Farm in Bündheim is on the agenda. However, we only catch the closing credits of the musical event. The original 14.9-kilometer tour extends to over 20 kilometers. And the only thing to blame for that
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
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
