In Taubergießen, one of the largest nature reserves along the Rhine, you can book boat tours. So for a change we get to see some nature without any effort… 😉
Tag: Hiking
From Locarno to the Cardada Cimetta
Recently I was traveling across Switzerland and and made a little detour to Locarno. In April 2019 an unexpected cold front brought half a meter of fresh to the mountains, and so everything turned into a bit of a snow hike…;)
To the Osterfelderkopf via the Bernadeinsteig
Today I’m writing about the third and last hiking suggestion from our vacation in Bavaria. We take the Bernadein path to the mountain station of the Alpspitzbahn and the AlpspiX viewing platform! 🙂
Around the Eibsee and to the Zugspitze
Today I have a simple and very nice hiking suggestion: we are going to hike around the Eibsee lake and then go the top of the Zugspitze using the ropeway or the rack railway! 🙂
To the Graseck through the Partnachklamm
Not far from Garmisch-Partenkirchen lies one of the most famous gorges in the entire Alpine region. For thousands of years, the turquoise-colored Partnach has eaten its way deep into the soft rock, leaving behind a narrow valley with spectacular views of steep rock faces.
Through the Nuuksio National Park on the Korpinkierros Trail
You’re in Helsinki and want to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city for a day, but a trip to Porvoo also sounds too stressful? No problem 🙂 Several national parks can be reached within an hour by car 🙂
To hell and back in Helvetinjaerven National Park
Hell is somewhere in Finland, at least if you believe in Finnish folklore. About 60 kilometres north of Tampere and 15 kilometres from Ruovesi lies the Iso Helvetinjaervi (Great Hell Lake), which together with some other lakes forms the Helvetinjaerven kansallispuisto (Hell Lake National Park).
Hiking in the Murg Valley: From the Rudolf Fettweis Hydro Plant to the Schwarzenbach Dam
There’s no shortage of hiking trails in the Black Forest, and on some you can walk in the footsteps of history. Twelve kilometers and 750 meters in altitude bring us closer to the history of hydroelectric power in Baden-Württemberg 🙂
Gyeongju: Of (Grave-)Hills and Mountains
Gyeongju was the capital of the Korean Peninsula for several hundred years. It is a small city, but very popular among Koreans due to its historical significance.
