Hiking from Hohenlimburg to Dahl
May 4, 2025There was a huge personal achievement of mine last week: I ran a full marathon. I had tried it twice before, but every time I had to walk quite a significant amount of time. This time, I managed to run through, and even though I hadn’t really cared about the time, I managed to run under 4 hours. I’m very happy about it and also very proud of myself. In the meantime, the others had a hike with a huge group last week, as Davy organized one combined with wine tasting. This week, as there was no particular event and…
Hiking around Heimbach
It was already a few weeks ago that we started organizing this weekend’s hike. I was not particularly interested to organize one, but then it turned out that there were only Davy and me. I just knew that I was…
Tag der Steige – official hiking event of the city of Essen
Last year, there was this thing called Tag der Steige, which was the official inauguration of the Baldeneysteig, which is a hiking track that goes around the Baldeneysee. I was aware of this track, because someone had told me that…
Hiking around Altena

Hiking from Ennepetal to Hagen
Spring is coming, little by little. I didn’t know before, but there are also cherry trees in the Hofgarten in Düsseldorf, which started flourishing. The temperature goes up and down everyday, but that’s how it is in spring. It feels…
Weekend trip to Luxembourg
Luxemburg has been on my raider for quite some time. It’s a beautiful area that extends from a to somewhere north east of France. Basically it’s a massive forest where you should be able to hike really well. However, it…
Hiking around Arnhem
Now it’s finally so far: We have an official Instagram account. It is still not perfectly done, but I’m sure that we are going to use it more often in the future. Anyway, since the weather was starting to look…
Hiking around Herdecke
This week, Davy and Rahul were not here, and for Hilal Ramadan started. That was a good occasion for us to organize a rather simple hike. So, today Hilal put one in Herdecke. Again, it’s one of those hikes we…
Hiking from Niederdollendorf to Rhöndorf
And here comes Davy again, which means the hike is somewhere south of Bonn. This time it’s the good old Königswinter, although for some reason he didn’t include Drachenfels. Well we’ve been there so many times. The drama started in…
Hiking around Odenthal
There is this thing I really hate: bus. Fortunately, we can reach a lot of interesting places by train in North Rhine Westphalia, but I have to admit there are also many places that you can simply not reach by…
Weekend snow hike trip to Harz
There is a certain number of people who are apparently fascinated by the idea of hiking in the snow. So every now and then, I tried to organize a weekend trip in the mountainous areas in the hope of having…
