Finding my Way on the Westweg – Hausach to Hinterzarten

Hiking from Hausach to Hinterzarten on the Westweg, I began to find my own rhythm hiking alone and with new friends.

Classic German Baking is a well-written, beautiful book containing precise recipes and detailed information about all things Kuchen.

The Westweg from Unterstmatt to Hausach is in an excellent section of the northern Black Forest, and marks the halfway point of the trail.

The Westweg is a 280 km long distance hike through the Black Forest. Join me on Germany’s oldest distance trail for a few days!

This fantastic river bike trail along the Werse River makes for a great day or weekend trip from Münster. A river, biking, castles, and ice cream!

The Schlaubetal is one of Brandenburg’s most beautiful hikes, but for me, it turned into a bit of a nightmare.

This hike in the Märkische Schweiz region not far from Berlin will blow you away. A Caribbean blue lake, healthy forest, and hills in Brandenburg!

Ever heard of Münster? Well you have got to go! This city has something for everyone: nature, art, architecture, castles, and more.

Do you love half-timbered houses, castles, and beautiful landscapes? Then take a ride on the north loop of the 100 Schlösser Route!

Looking for a ride through the idyllic Münsterland countryside? Then cycle the east route of the 100 Schlösser Route.
