Recap May 2024
May 2024 was filled with hikes, bike rides, and new photography opportunities. From unexpected village walks to mountain biking loops, each activity offered experiences and memorable moments. Here’s a recap of our month, covering our adventures, photography endeavors, and blog updates.

#Szczecinek. A town that's not easily reachable via railways but totally worth it. #Lake Trzesiecko is surrounded by paths, with many pedestrian and bike tracks.
Most of the east and north-east shore is covered by city park with a promenade. You can easily notice where it ends, since you are immediately surrounded by a cloud of mosquitoes. There's also a forest to the north-east where you can find the remains of Wał Pomorski fortifications. It's a place where you can run, since otherwise mosquitoes will bite you hard. To the east of it, there's a block of houses named after generals, with long names including their pseudonyms.
Curious enough, there are multiple dog parks along the way. Individuals parks are dedicated e.g. to "aggressive dogs" or "large dogs". There is also a lot of posters asking people to adopt dogs from the animal shelter. The shore features a lot of willows and other trees leaning above the water. There are also some piers, apparently dedicated to the "water tram".
The west shore is covered by houses — it's a place to walk around a road in the sun and forget about mosquitoes for a while. The Brzegowa street features a wooden bridge over a beautiful canal (see the second photo). The whole south shore is covered by forest. In the middle of it, there's a beach called Mysia Wyspa (= mouse island). There are some more fortifications in the forest, and of course mosquitoes.
You can also walk to the nearby Lake Wilczkowo. However, I only had enough time to walk through the short path along the north-east shore that's blocked by fell trees and full of mosquitoes.
The first photograph is from the north-east shore of Lake Trzesiecko. The second one is the aforementioned canal. Third is from a path along the lake, north of a bridge on Strumień Mulisty (= muddy stream). The fourth is from a pier — "Wieża Bismarcka" (= Bismarck's Tower) stop.
And no, I haven't seen much of the town.

Mieses Wetter aber dafür fast komplett alleine in den großen Wäldern umhergelaufen.

Hey friends!
I finished my video & blogpost for last week's #hiking day. I felt a bit sore if you remember. But it turned out to be a grand day!
I wrote about more context about the day. I'm slowly getting into writing longer texts.
And I'm getting more and more into #video

A serene scene of a trail winding through a mountainous landscape is captured in this image. The trail cuts through a forest of tall trees, with green leaves and a mixture of grass and rocks covering the ground. In the background, a clear blue sky with fluffy white clouds can be seen, adding a sense of tranquility to the rugged terrain. The dominant colors in the image are black and white, with accents of a deep blue hue. The image evokes a sense of adventure and exploration in a remote wildern…
In this image, we see a middle-aged man taking a selfie outdoors in a grassy field with a cloudy sky in the background. The man is wearing sunglasses and a backpack, indicating he may be hiking or backpacking. He is smiling and posing for the selfie, showcasing a happy expression on his face. The dominant colors in the image are grey, with the accent color being a dark green. The man's face is the main focus of the image. The overall scene suggests a sense of adventure and travel, capturing a m…

An Unexpected Full Loop
Despite sore legs from a mountain bike tour and my wife's preference to stay home due to illness, I embarked on a solo hike. What began as a tentative outing turned into a fulfilling full loop to the summit, with beautiful scenery and unexpected companionship along the way.

Spent this weekend in the Lüneburger Heide. It was a very strange light, but great conditions for a long walk. Not too hot, not too cold, with a light wind. Really, quite beautiful, even if the Heather was not in bloom.

View from the highest spot, the Wilseder Berg.
A herd of sheep and goats lines Heather meadow, with a large birch tree. The sky is strangely overcast but bright at the same time.
View over the Totengrund, the "ditch of the dead".

A series of short clips of animals seen among the bushes and dry grass of California's coastal interior range. Ducks swimming in a pond. Two different deer, with the first one eating some leaves, the second lying in some green vegetation. Lastly we see about 20 seconds of a small gray fox trotting around a trail and picnic area

The second part of voyages around #Szczecin: Szczecin Zdroje (= springs, as in the source of water).
We're going to find two highlights around there: Park Leśny Zdroje (= Springs Forest Park), and Puszcza Bukowa (= Beechwood), with Bukowe Zdroje (= Beech Springs) reserve. I'm going to focus on the first one today. As for Puszcza Bukowa, I'm going to say only that it's a huge forest with lots of hills, and it's kinda like going to the mountains. You can spend hours there.
As for Park Leśny Zdroje, it's got interesting landscape too. I've photographed its four most important highlights (in my opinion) for your viewing pleasure:
1. Jezioro Szmaragdowe (= Emerald Lake), named after its characteristic water color. There's a walking path across its southern and eastern shore, as well as on top of the surrounding hills. However, there's also a lot of mosquitoes there.
2. "Oko na Szczecin" (= Eye on Szczecin) overview. Unfortunately, it's been overgrown badly with surrounding shrubs. Hard not to think that "the world has moved on".
3. A #tunnel of old mine railroad. It's in a middle of a slightly overgrown path in the middle of a gully. No rails remain, though.
4. Czanowskie Wzgórze (= Chan Hill?). A nice overlook over a cliff. This one's not overgrown at all; also has no protective railings, and the ground is declining towards the cliff. Just saying, as an acrophobic person.

A black and white sketch of a tree standing tall in the snow-covered landscape. The tree, located towards the center of the image, has a thick trunk and many branches reaching outwards. The snow covers the ground around the tree, creating a serene winter scene. The background is also covered in snow, emphasizing the tree's stark contrast against the white backdrop. The image is a monochromatic illustration of a winter wonderland, with the tree as the focal point. The overall composition conveys…

We have a plan for today. Off to Sainsbury's very shortly, then after that we're going to grab our hiking boots and backpacks and go for a traipse around Errwood Reservoir and Foxlow Edge in the Peak District. Maybe up to Cats Tor or Shining Tor if we're feeling enthusiastic.

A frosty and chill day - but I went there alone as I wanted to focus more on #photography than just #hiking the summit.

So the "bad weather conditions" yesterday apparently caused a major railway control fault today. All my potentials plans were ripped apart, and I've ended up in #Konin, for no other reason than the train happened to be going there.
This was originally posted as a riddle for my Polish readers; here's a repost with English alt-text. The name "Konin" refers to "koń", or a horse. So they put it in on top of a fountain.

About 4 weeks ago I decided to hike at least 3 times a week, to prepare for the golf season. My exercise tracker tells me I've only been out 5 times since then. But 10.5°C and sunny weather got Harley and I out this morning for 3km. On the way home we cross a large open pasture and a couple of turkey vultures were following us. Do I look that out of shape?

What came to my mind yesterday: On those 9h hike, I talked to almost no one.
I didn't listen to music or anything else beyond just ... nature. The wind, myself breathing, my steps, the water, ...
And it never felt boring.
You might call it a full day meditation.

This Photo was taken in January when I went out to try some foreground. Right there I had to pull myself back because I wanted to reach the summit and almost forgot about the photo opportunity.
I put down my rucksack, went town on my knees and started taking photos instead. And I am very happy that I did so! I just wonder if I should remove the tiny tree right under the cross 🤔

#Chociwel. A town over a lake, and I don't think there's much more to say. The road around the lake is a bit muddy but walkable (you just have to be careful not to stray from the road marked on OSM). Mosquitoes were present as well.
It's reachable via 5 AM set of trains from Poznań (with leg-stretching in Krzyż and Stargard), 9 AM there. Then a quick round round the lake, 10.13 return train, short change in Stargard and back in Poznań at 1 PM.

Yesterday I came across a page with tips about "what to do in case your #hiking boots/shoes stink". And I remember having seen such tips in the past.
Lots of interesting tips there. But I NEVER read "just wash them once in a while". Is there a reason for that??
I mean, even on the official Lowa website I read that shoes CAN be washed gently (which I do).

Today photos from my recent #hiking over the north-west part of #Szczecin.
I've started at Jasne Błonia plaza. Its sides feature rows of plane trees. Next, Jan Kasprowicz Park, and on the other side of the road, dendrological garden. Next, Różanka (= rose garden) park and then Syrenie Stawy (= mermaid ponds), followed by Arkona Forest.
I've first went north-west, passing by Goplana #Lake, Wędkarski (= fishing) Pond (I've taken the mallard photo there), and Głębokie (= deep) Lake (second and third photos are from its eastern shore). Next, I went east over Siedmiu Młynów (= 7 mills) way. And then, towards Arkona hill, on top of which there are magnificent #ruins of Quistorp Tower (the fourth photo is from its second floor).
I wholeheartedly recommend visiting Szczecin, with mgorny quality mark. If you catch a local train towards Krzyż from Poznań at 5 AM, and then grab Regio towards Szczecin there, you can reach the main station at 8.30.

I was soaked wet, cold, but I bring you this photo. An unnamed pond in Roszkowo, near Skoki in Greater Poland.

#Drawiny — #NoweDrezdenko again today. Once again, another EMU was attached to us in Krzyż but it was managed in 10 minutes — nevertheless, I don't recommend travelling on Sundays.

Jan Metzig plaza, in #Leszno. The #oak below is called "Bolek" (diminutive of Bolesław).
I was waiting for a train change. I wanted to publish the photo of this fountain earlier, but my photo turned out bad. Then someone commented that it looks like a pile of excrements, so I've figured I must take a better photo.

April is a good time to visit the #BotanicalGarden in #Poznań. And it's free entry (with free toilets, if you wondered).
There's also Lake Rusałka, a nice park on Sołacz and Dendrological Garden (that I finally have to visit) nearby.

Today, I have some photos from #GórkiNoteckie, that I've been meaning to publish for over a month now.
The track is a path east of Santoczna #river, in Buki Zdroiskie im. prof. Lucjana Agapowa Reserve (two first photos), then Wełminko #Lake (third photo) and Lake Duże Wełmino (fourth photo). Linguistic curiosity: "Wełminko" is a diminutive of "Wełmino", and "duże" means "large". Both lakes feature a waterside path on the east shore, though it's a bit overgrown (back then, with wet grass that I didn't have the right shoes for) on the bit between the lakes. The road on the western side goes a little away from the lake, so it's not as scenic.

Today's #hiking was from #Jastrzębsko Stare (Jastrzębsko station) to Stara #Tuchorza (Tuchorza station).
First, I went southeast, through hills near Jastrzębsko, next to towns of Grubsko and Szarki. Afterwards, I went south, using the east shore of #wetlands and of the Kuźnickie #Lake. At this point, I should note that due to the spills, it's impossible to follow the shore from the north. Instead, you may use the road marked on OSM to get to the central point of the east shore, and follow the shore south from there. Then further south through more hills, and turn west towards Tuchorza.

I have praised the Kuźnik Reserve, north of #Piła already, I will praise it again. This time I will focus on a path along the small #river Ruda. The paths starts south of Czaple Stawy (= "Heron Ponds"), and ends close to Rudnickie Lake. In the middle of it, there's a nice steep climb onto a hill. The kind that features a rope to cling to, except that it's broken and only actually starts at 3/4 of the height, so below you have to walk zig-zag across the slope.
