After a soaking-wet night we set off comparatively late and had a leisurely breakfast in the container. Not knowing what kind of day lay ahead of us, we did not let the somewhat subdued weather discourage us. We reached Trient almost dry and were even rewarded with a rainbow. The weather changed quickly, however: after…
Today was the sixth stage of our Tour du Mont Blanc. From our campsite, we set off on a 28-kilometre hike with an elevation gain of 1400 meters towards Col de la Forclaz. The first few kilometers took us through a picturesque Swiss landscape with green meadows and charming mountain villages. Despite the cloudy sky,…
Today it was time to sleep in again and have a leisurely breakfast in front of the tent. The first bus to take us back to the trail didn’t leave until 8 a.m., and the stage we had planned to La Fouly was just 14 km long. The bus was packed – not only were…
As breakfast was already included in the hotel room, we had a good excuse to start the day slowly. We met up at 8 a.m. and hit the buffet. Shortly afterwards, Maciek set off again as he had a somewhat tight schedule. I took my time to finish packing my things and did a bit…
Today our hiking group split up. Due to the bad weather and the ongoing thunderstorm warning, I wanted to get over the 2500 m high pass from France to Italy, which was still over 5 km away, as quickly as possible without missing a single meter of the trail. My parents, on the other hand,…
The rain lasted all night, but fortunately stopped when the call of nature drove me out of the tent to the toilet block. We had planned to start our day early and finish early at a campsite after just 13 km. The weather was set to deteriorate again – not only rain, but also thunderstorms…
On the first day, we headed to the starting point from the campsite where we had spent the night and where we wanted to park our car for the next eight days. This was a little frustrating, as we had already walked past here the evening before on our way to the supermarket. However, you…
A short walk from Heimburg. There are a few remains of walls, a Harzer Wandernadel stamp and a vantage point from which you can get a good view of Heimburg and the surrounding area. No more, but also no less. You can find more hikes that I did as part of #HWN2024 here.
I think “voyage of discovery” sums it up very well, because you rarely get to see so many impressive things in such a short distance. It’s not for nothing that the region here is well hiked. As always, my version of these three popular stamping points is a little overgrown, but rewards us with a…
Well, “hike” is perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, it’s more of a walk around the Elfenstein, but a very worthwhile one. The tour starts directly at the hiking parking lot and first leads slightly uphill along a wide forest path. Shortly afterwards, the path becomes a narrow, somewhat overgrown path, which is still very…
