Hiking to Lennep and Wuppertalsperre!
It’s not so useful to talk about VRR or VRS anymore, but if there’s one place where it’s somewhat pleasant to swim in VRR, that’s the river Wupper and Wuppertalsperre, where I guess the Wupper starts. We have also been…
Hiking from Wetter to Herdecke!
It’s been a few weeks now that there’s this extremely heatwave elsewhere around the northern hemisphere, while here in Germany it looks like summer is already over. It was already clear when I was organizing the hike at the beginning…
Hiking from Letmathe to Nachrodt
As I was staying in Essen from yesterday to today, I wanted to organize a hike somewhere in the north. At the same time, at the beginning of summer I kind of promised there would be always a possibility to…
Hiking from Solingen Schaberg to Schlossburg!
There’s this area around Solingen and Schlossburg that I visit very often. It’s because it’s fairly close from Düsseldorf, has beautiful nature and gives some tourist attractions, namely Schlossburg and the Müngsten bridge. I even chose it for the 100th…
Hiking around Remagen

Hiking from Hohenlimburg to Altena!
Recently, we had this hike around Lennep, which is just one station after the end of the VRR area, which had forced us to buy a ticket, just for one station. On the eastern edge of the VRR, I had…
Hiking around Blankenberg!
Finally we came back to the Cologne area! And we were very much welcomed by the German railway: We missed our connection this morning. Great So, to day we hiked around Blankenberg, and for the planning I used Komoot for…
Hiking from Leopoldstal to Detmold and Externsteine and Hermannsdenkmal!
Maybe I’m gonna start off with something personal: Last week, Jana, who was supposed to cycle with me in the Czech Republic this summer, fell off her bike last week and broke her leg. Now, she will stay in Hamburg…
