Alpspitze has been on my list a long time because it looks pointy and I just love pointy mountains. Every time I took the train pass Garmisch Partenkirchen I got reminded of that I still had not been on top of top of it. BUT NOT ANYMORE! :D:D Now I can point to it and... Continue Reading →
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 →

For several years I have been thinking that I want to start with ski touring. For three years to e exact. This weekend we finally realized our dreams - well it was not quite according to what we had dreamed but at least we got out there. Picture by Štěpán Jirka So why ski touring?... Continue Reading →
Did you see the supermoon? From Jochberg (1565m) you could.

This weekend I will join a group of people for a hike. Most of these people I have never met before. We are supposed to be a group of ten. They do not know me and I do not know them. There are both positive and negative sides to hiking with a group of new... Continue Reading →
A hike with the view to the Neuschwanstein castle.
This weekend my Mom is visiting. Unfortunately she is really not into hiking. Therefore, instead of visiting some nice peaks in the alps, we are going to do the regular touristy stuff. One of the sights that are really worth to visit while in Bavaria is the Neuschwanstein castle and I have good news - you... Continue Reading →
Last hike for this season? Nahh..
The hiking season in Germany is much longer than in Norway. This is one of the things I love about living here. While it's already snowing in Norway and people are preparing their skis, here you can still climb a 2000 m high mountain in tights 😀 This weekend we hiked Kramerspitz (1985 m). Kramerspitz is in...
