Selected a #hiking route for tomorrow.
Just reminded myself to check the avalanche status... Selected another route...
Maybe overcautios - but my route would go over a larger alpine meadow. Even though I'd go via a south flank that is mentioned with less risk - when I'm going alone, I prefer zero risk.

My plans to hike the Tongariro Alpine Crossing were derailed by two days of rain and high winds, so we made a plan B: the Tama lakes track, which has somewhat less exposure but still gets up over 1400m. We’re lucky we didn’t try Tongariro given how tough the conditions were at Tama lakes – driving snow and winds on the ridge. But we were rewarded with good views and improving weather on the return trip. #hiking

Hello Stranger?
I took this photo recently on a hike on one of my local hills when I turned around and saw a stranger walking there.
I hardly ever have people in my photos, because I don't WANT people there. But this scene was so different.
The fog was just thick enough to see the person, yet I didn't feel like the person was "near". It all just felt so distant.
#hiking

A lone hiker ventures through a mystical winter landscape, where bare, gnarled trees stand like ancient sentinels in a veil of soft, drifting fog. The muted gray sky blends seamlessly with the mist, casting an ethereal glow over the frost-kissed meadow. Delicate snowflakes dust the ground, adding a quiet stillness to the scene. The skeletal branches of the towering trees create intricate silhouettes, their twisted forms adding a touch of wild beauty to the serene yet slightly mysterious atmosph…

Cool.
"When you are on trail, you realize that all the other people who are out there are out there for the same reasons that you are," she said.
"And maybe they might use the trail differently. So, for example, Greg is primarily a snowmobiler, but I'm mostly walking and hiking. But we both love the outdoors in the same way."

A majestic summit unfolds beneath a brilliant blue sky, where the sun shines brightly, casting a radiant glow over the landscape. At the peak, a wooden cross stands tall, serving as a focal point and symbol of achievement for those who reach this breathtaking viewpoint. The cross is surrounded by a small group of hikers, their figures silhouetted against the stunning backdrop of rolling hills and distant mountain ranges.

The panoramic view stretches out in layers of forested ridges and valleys…

First person video of me walking a narrow path along a ridge with steep drops on either side, but one side more open, providing vast views over the surrounding landscape (and esp. the foothills north of the Ammergau Alps). The beautiful warm autumn afternoon sun makes the dried grasses appear almost golden... Bright blue sky

A sea of soft, billowing clouds stretches out beneath a dramatic mountain landscape, their fluffy white peaks gently undulating like waves. The mountains rise majestically from the cloud cover, their rugged silhouettes softened by the misty atmosphere. Layer upon layer of forested ridges and peaks fade into the distance, creating a sense of depth and scale that feels almost infinite.

The scene is serene and ethereal, with the clouds obscuring the lower slopes and adding an air of mystery to th…

Two curious cows stand side by side on a gentle, grassy slope, their coats a mix of rich brown and white patches. Their eyes are bright and inquisitive, reflecting a sense of calm and gentle curiosity as they face the camera. The cows, adorned with yellow ear tags, seem at ease in their natural surroundings, their breath visible in the cool, crisp air.

The landscape around them is a blend of open pasture and rolling hills, dotted with a few scattered trees and framed by a dense forest in the b…

A breathtaking panoramic view unfolds under a vast, clear blue sky, where rolling hills and dense forests stretch out toward the horizon. The foreground is a gentle, sunlit slope covered in golden grass, leading the eye toward clusters of evergreen trees that dot the landscape.

Oh, almost forgot #silentsunday!
My last hike led me to this summit which is usually very well visited.
But given the weekday & weather, I was totally alone while I was up there. Noone around. No human made sound. Just me and nature. It felt so much like real freedom.

This image captures a breathtaking winter landscape from a high vantage point. The scene is dominated by a vast, snow-covered mountain range under a clear blue sky with scattered clouds. A serene lake lies nestled among the mountains, its icy surface reflecting the surrounding peaks and the sky above.

I really like to get back to frequent 10-mile fasting hikes/walks. I did 2-4/week in 2023-24; but very few in 2025 due to other interests and opportunities that are incompatible with that goal. If only I can do both.🤲

Content warning: no snow here, although the outdoor thermometer was reading -6.7 °C when we got up.

So of course it's a grand day for pulling on our warmest outdoor walking gear and heading over to the Peak District.
We're experienced enough winter hikers that we know our limits: we'll be staying well away from any moor tops or anywhere that the footpaths are completely obscured by snow. But we're hoping for some glorious winter scenery in the valleys and the lower hills.

But most importantly, I just enjoyed being out, had some friendly words with some hikers and had some fresh air.

This image captures a breathtaking winter landscape from a high vantage point. The foreground features a grassy hillside with patches of snow, indicating the transition between autumn and winter. Scattered bushes and leafless trees add texture and depth to the scene.

Beyond the hillside, a vast sea of clouds fills the middle ground, creating a soft, white blanket that stretches across the landscape. The cloud layer adds a sense of mystery and tranquility to the scene.

Half an hour wait for the next train? Why not walk to the viewing platform in front of #Kłodzko Fortress? You surely won't regret walking all the way up, on these grid gangways and grid fences that make you perfectly aware how high up you are, and with strong wind blowing onto you as soon as you pass the corner.

Sunday: 2°C outside (felt like -1) and figured it was a good time for a hike in the woods, hills, and fields of #Bavaria on a trail I've been eyeing for a couple of years now. Muddy trails for about half the distance but easily negotiated.🚶‍♂️🌲
Would've liked if the walk was longer but 10.7kms felt good, especially after a 2-month break in any such activity.

Nestled within a lush, evergreen embrace, this serene forest trail invites hikers into a tranquil wilderness. The narrow, winding path—strewn with small rocks and bordered by vibrant green grass—gently ascends through a dense canopy of towering pine and fir trees. Their rich, dark needles contrast beautifully with the bright greenery underfoot, creating a soothing palette of forest hues.

Sunlight filters softly through the overhead branches, casting dappled shadows on the trail and highlighti…

The thermometer says it's 1.3° out there so obviously this is a perfect time to go out walking on t'moors.
There's a hike we've been planning to do for a while now, not far from Blackburn, and although it's chilly the weather says it'll be dry and bright so we're about to wrap up and head out to the East Lancs hills.
No time to waste as at this time of year the sun will be setting by about 4pm.
