My #FootpathFriday contribution... I wish I was there today to be honest..
This was part of a bike and hike where we returned in the rain. But as we were prepared for it, it was more fun than expected!

Weather forecast was about rain and maybe lightning ... so we just biked to your lokal mountain and did a quick loop in high humidity.

Oh almost missed #footpathFriday !
It's from 2 years ago .. but .. maybe we just go there tomorrow? 🤔

War ne ordentliche Tour heute:

I wanted to post mountain photos more regularly again! So here's one trail from last year where I started really early to avoid the heat.
It was a hike that I did alone and met just like ... 2 or 3 people. Oh and I was glad to have a water filter with me!
I spotted a spring on my way up and - knowing that I'd come pack to it later - I didn't have to use my water sparingly.
Enjoy!
For #mountainmonday I don't have a very new photo, but one that I just like very much!
Need to go there again, soon.
Enjoy!

We've been out #hiking today. Luckily it wasn't that warm as the sky was covered in clouds - at least sometimes. But to be honest we were surprised that we met just a few people.
But the drought is undeniable. Usually the grass should be quite green.
Anyways. We had a 4h loop and saw a lot of blackberries and even Belladonna. Not a lot of motives around - or maybe it was too w…
A clip that I found yesterday in my "unprocessed" folder. Just a couple of seconds #hiking in the #mountains.
Enjoy

Had a great #hiking day in the #mountains.
Didn't meet a lot of people, had a couple of beautiful views.
At the end, we had an ice café. We ordered a sandwich which turned out to be just a little burnt. I wouldn't even have noticed. The staff was worried if we'd take it. - I assured that it's really not a problem. But still we got an ice for free. 🤷
The day could have been worse 😉
Just back from a hike to one of our often-hiked mountains.

One more photo from the hike, I wrote about on my blog.
It's not the best photo, but - if I remember correctly - it was the first time I saw a black salamander in the wild. So it's more for my memories. But .. they don't seem to be very common, I just wanted to share it with you.

Thanks to the #hiking community here, we now (almost) always have a water filter with us and we hardly dehydrated on our #cycling tours since.
I can barely say how good it feels to return without being terrible thirsty. Next issue I really need to solve is eating regularly and enough. Even though I had enough cereal bars with me, I more than once noticed hunger biting my stomach - and with this, a considerable drop of my physical performance.
But it was a lot of fun and joy nonetheless.
Oh! almost missed #mountainMonday !
Then I share this photo from my blog post. IThat day I didn't plan to go that far, but it came one after the other and in the end I just thought: well, it's just about half an hour anyways, so I can just go there and see if I grab something to eat there.

One more photo of a chamois that I posted just on my recent blogpost.
I wouldn't have seen them if two hikers wouldn't have told me to go further than I had planned. I just wanted to go to a certain place when they showed up and told me to go there ... well. Thanks for the tip you unknown hikers!

ou man .. Looks like all the photos etc from our vacation won't be processed until next week :-(
But meanwhile: autumn is close: prepare your #hiking clothes. We just washed and re-impregnated our jackets.
I rember a visit at a JackWolfskin store where one of the guys said: "please think about washing the jacket"
Me: "we're washing, impregnating and activating them 2x a year when really dirty/sweated."
He looked at me for a couple of seconds:
"First client ever doing this"

I usually avoid hikes in the heat, but younger me wasn't so wise.
In 2011 I went up Mt Yishay from Ein Gedi on the Dead Sea. We walked it in reverse, so we only saw the sign when coming down. It was exceptionally hot, even for the region, and there was no water, no shrub and no tree for most of the hike. I had to hide in the shade of a rock crevice for 20min to not pass out 🙈
Also one of my only hikes from negative elevation (-380m − 160m and back).
A girl from the Netherlands who we met on the way insisted on joining us, although she was just wearing a bikini and flip-flops. I thought it was a little stupid, but in the end she did a lot better than me. Another lesson learned 😅

And I can FINALLY tick "writing about that day" off my list. Overambition delayed it ways too long. Also a lesson I learned... Perfectionism kills blog posts...

Impressions from our hike yesterday.
Luckily mostly in the shades, a gentle slope, great views and a bit of litter cleanup.
But all the little streams we crossed have gone dry again.
But it's been a great day, finished with an ice-coffee 😊
A couple started the hike shortly before us and one complained about one shoe falling apart "but maybe it still works". A few hundred meters later, it didn't...

Hey, for #footpathfriday I share another photo from a recent hike, which I blogged about:
#landscape #mountains #hiking #wandern #photography
One for the #footpathFriday just from yesterdays blogpost from my blog profile @…
My route for tomorrow is selected and this was a hot candidate. But my wife convinced me to go somewhere else as we had been on this path just recently.
keep fingers crossed that my north-side route won't be too chill tomorrow.

Oh, #mountainmonday !
Time to share another photo from my recent hike. Don't worry, this is the only part that's SO exposed. The rest is not so dramatic, but one shouldn't be afraid of heights. Otherwise it might not be too much fun.
I've written about the day here:

We definitely had a #silentsunday today.
Walking on small trails along the river #isar near #wolfratshausen. Even though I'm living in the area since ages, I've never been here before.
A nice long walk, mostly in the shades. Just the right trail for today.
Thanks to the Rother Wanderführer for this tour. #landscape #nature #hiking #wandern #bayern #bavaria
Today's view. I did a bike and hike. But oh wow did I feel my legs at the summit!
The bike part involved some steep incline (~20%). This obviously hammered my muscles a bit. But the overall walk was just wonderful.

Greetings today from #hiking in the #BayerischerWald to the #Lusen summit.
The peak was quite windy and I was well equipped, bringing a soft shell jacket and a beanie. 👍
On the way back I discovered this stone sculpture and it SO reminded me of the places of power in #witcher3.
I tried it, but it didn't work 😕
It's been a beautiful tour that I extended rather spontaneously. But I haven't been to such a frequented summit recently. But I wasn't surprised. So all cool.

We've been #hiking again today! We revisited a route that we did years ago. It was great again, especially as I forgot about a beautiful part of the trail: narrow, a bit exposed. At one part even with an iron rope.
And we were confirmed that it's definitely the time of the year to bring caps, headband and light jackets.
Once the sun is covered by a cloud, it can be pretty chill.
I practiced some new photography style.. Maybe I'll show the results later.
