From Sønderhav to Brunsnæs The second stage of the Gendarmstien leads from Sønderhav to Brunsnæs – around 20 kilometres, most of which run right along the beach. There are repeated options to detour inland, for example through Kelstrup forest or past old carp pond dams, but we almost always stuck to the original route. Even…
From Padborg to Sønderhav Our hike on the Gendarmstien began at the train station in Padborg. No sooner had we left the town than the trail led us into a surprisingly hilly and varied landscape. Old patches of woodland, narrow valleys and gentle “ridges” set the scene – a lovely start that immediately made us…
The Gendarmstien is a long-distance hiking trail in the south of Denmark that is around 84 kilometers long and runs directly along the German-Danish border. It follows in the footsteps of the Danish border guards who once patrolled here and today offers hikers a varied mix of history, nature and coastal panoramas. From Padborg on…
The second stage of the Harzer Försterstieg (Harz Forester’s Trail) starts either in Wolfshagen or at the Lageswarte, depending on where you finished the first stage. If you start in Wolfshagen, you have a good deal more distance ahead of you, while the Lageswarte, as a viewpoint and stamp point, is an ideal starting base…
The first stage of the Harzer Försterstieg (Harz Forester’s Trail) starts in the historic imperial town of Goslar. Past the Imperial Palace and picturesque half-timbered houses, the route follows a small, almost forgotten forest path to the Frankenberger Teich pond – an idyllic introduction to the nature of the Harz. After that the trail first…
Today’s stage of the Kyffhäuser Trail is much shorter at 14 km and takes us past the Panorama Hotel, through Bad Frankenhausen (which is officially the starting point of the trail), along the Barbarossa Caves before heading back across the fields to our car in Steinthaleben. Along the way, you can not only see some…
At around 27 km, this stage is the longest part of the trail and ends for us at the Hornungshöhe refuge, where we watched the stars for a long time. If you prefer to sleep in a hotel bed, you should add a few more kilometers – then you reach Bad Frankenhausen, where you are…
The day began like many before it: pack your rucksack, gather your things, briefly enjoy the view of the huge wind turbines. Our goal: to reach the road and take the bus to Tehachapi from there. But after just a few kilometers, our hike was turned upside down. Suddenly, three cute, trusting dogs appeared –…
After one of the most memorable nights on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), under a starry sky that took our breath away, we continued our hike. The morning began with breathtaking views and the knowledge that our next destination – a water cache – was only a few kilometers away. But as is often the…
After an incredibly restful night, we continued towards the next water cache. Unfortunately, I can’t show you this location as one of the local residents has a problem with it. You also have to find out the exact location via a Facebook group. Our route then led us through a wind farm. A rather dangerous…
