Säuling (2047m) – A mountain that has been on my list since I moved to Germany.
I remember the very first time I went to Füssen and to Schloss Neuschwanstein. It was back in 2015 and we had just moved to Germany. We were standing on Marienbrücke when I saw Säuling, as a big pyramid in the sunset. I remember telling Elias that we need to find out what that mountain... Continue Reading →
When you end up on the wrong peak because you spotted a shortcut.
You stand on the feet of the mountains and you spot an awesome peak. You are sure that this is the one you have planned to hike. After all, it matches with the descriptions or at least you make it match, because it looks so awesome and it is in the right direction 😀 Happy and... Continue Reading →
Winter hiking and why I need to buy crampons.
March as been very busy for me and there has been almost no time for hiking, except for couple of weeks back when we went for a small winter hike. The only requirement this time was to find a hike with an open hut. Kampenwand 1669m was perfect. Ascent: 1100 hm Time: ca. 3h up and... Continue Reading →
Sledging in Germany – a serious sport.

I had seen Germans walking around with their sledges before, both in the city and in the mountains so I knew that this was an established sport here and not only an activity for kinds. I did not quite understand it thought, and it did... Continue Reading →

Originally I had a different hike planned but then life happened. I discovered that I... Continue Reading →
Hoher Fricken and why you should not stay in the valley.
Last weekend we did a very nice hike to Hoher Fricken 1940m. For me it is still so strange that here in Germany you can go hiking in the end on November and not meet any snow! Sometimes I miss the snow, especially when seeing all the nice skiing pictures from Norway 😉 but in the... Continue Reading →
Did you see the supermoon? From Jochberg (1565m) you could.
So on Monday everybody were exited about the "supermoon". Apparently the moon did appear larger than it has since the 1940s. It was supposed to be the whole 14% bigger and 30% brighter compared with the smallest full moons. Pay attention to that last fact "compared with the smallest full moons." In other words it was...

Don’t let others crush your hiking dreams!
On Fridays a typical conversation I have goes like this: X: So what are your plans for the weekend? Me: Actually I will go hiking. X: (Rolling eyes) off course you are. People don't always understand why somebody would climb 1500 meters to the top of a mountain just to walk down again (and I... Continue Reading →
