Hey! It’s autumn! Let’s enjoy the best season in one of the best known landmarks of the area! This time I’m proposing a hike from Bonn-Oberkassel to Königswinter, where we’re gonna visit Schloss Drachenfels!

So the plan is quite simple: we’re gonna see each other in front of Köln Hbf at 10:15am. Then:

  1. Dep: 10:38 Köln Hbf – Platform 4 (RB 10617)
  2. Arr: 11:14 Bonn-Oberkassel – Platform 202

Then we start hiking. Easy, isn’t it? If you come from a different city, feel free to join us wherever you want on the way! It’s within the VRS region so if you have a VRS ticket, you can travel there for free. Even if you don’t it’s very likely that someone can take you for free so just be there in time!

Then we’ll walk according to this map (in kml-format) or this map (in gpx-format). The total distance is something like 16.5 km. We’ll have a break at Klosterstube (and maybe also in other places). It would be helpful if you’d bring something to eat and a picnic blanket.

Regardless of the weather, I will NOT cancel the event, so please check it out yourselves and decide whether to come or not yourselves.

This event is also organized on Facebook and Meetup. Check it out from this page!

Hope to see you there!
