Leaving civilization...
(October 2025)
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography

The last few meters of a farming path leading through a group of trees and bushes, before it ends in a high alpine terrain with snow capped mountains in the background. All the vegetation is in autumn colors, rich yellows and browns. Clear, gray sky.

It's #footpathfriday and it is #winter ... So I searched for a photo that would show exactly that. -- a couple of years ago I went to a nearby mountain after some fresh snowfall.
The trail usually clearly visible was sometimes barely visible directly, but the landscape just showed th…

A winter wonderland unfolds in this ethereal forest scene, where tall evergreens stand sentinel over a pristine blanket of snow. Delicate mist weaves between the trees, softening the landscape into a dreamlike haze, while pale sunlight filters through the branches, casting a gentle glow on the untouched path ahead. The trail, barely visible beneath the snow, invites exploration

Höllental ❤️
(Named after the hellish canyon section at the bottom of this most amazing valley, a section with tunnels and waterfalls which made the valley impassible during winter months (even still now) and the only way in & out is via a very narrow path along the rocks higher up...)
#FootpathFriday

Square format high contrast B&W photo of a large and very deep high alpine valley, looking down from a mountain pass around 800 meters above the valley floor. A small footpath with switchbacks through some forest is visible near the bottom. The opposite side of the valley is formed by a single massive rock face with jagged peaks & ridge line...

For #footpathfriday I'm sharing this one again. It's really one of our most liked trails.
Even though it doesn't gain a lot of elevation, the path along the shore of the lake is all I like:
narrow, pretty nature like, absolutely great views, bends along the shores so that you don't see too far, and mountains all around ... what else would you need 🙂

A breathtaking lakeside trail scene unfolds in this image, capturing the serene beauty of a rugged coastal path. The foreground features a narrow, rocky trail that winds along the edge of a steep cliff. The trail, bordered by patches of grass and shrubs, invites exploration and promises stunning views. To the left of the trail, a calm lake stretches out, its tranquil waters reflecting the sunlight. The lake is nestled amidst the cliffs and trees, adding a sense of peaceful solitude to the scen…

For #FootpathFriday I chose this one.
It's been a nice walk around this hill with the little church on top.
I'm missing this right now. White snow would be nice, or green grass. Yet we are currently stuck in the season in between.
But for such cases, we have photos. Photos to revive memories, to make us smile, to make us dream. Dream of the experience.

A peaceful countryside scene unfolds in this idyllic landscape, where a lush green meadow stretches out beneath a soft, overcast sky. The meadow, dotted with wildflowers and framed by a rustic wooden fence, gently slopes upward toward a cluster of tall, leafy trees. Their vibrant green foliage stands out against the muted tones of the sky, creating a sense of harmony and tranquility. Nestled among the trees is a quaint, small building with a red-tiled roof, adding a touch of rustic charm to th…

Do(n't) look down...
(View down into Oytal from a precarious section of the ridge path near Laufbacher Eck & Schneck, late October 2021)
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography

View of the upper section of Oytal and surrounding majestic mountains, as seen from a narrow hiking path near the ridge, a 1000 meters above the valley. Super steep grassy cliffs and slopes (in autumn colors) dropping down directly next to the path. Another small path winding up in the valley to the cirque in the distance. Some of these mountains there already dusted with snow.

#footPathFriday por la calzada de los borbones, en Cercedilla

Se ve un camino recto de tierra bordeado por altísimos pinos y vegetación baja de tipo arbustos. El cielo está un poco gris.

In The Garden Of Eden.
(From one of my favorite hikes last year, October 2025... a place of absolute solitude, harmony, peace and positive vibes, a feast for the eyes)
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography

The upper part of a high alpine glacial valley in the most beautiful autumn colors with golden yellow grasses, small bushes with orange leaves, red patches of heather and blueberries, and small swiss pines dotted here and there. A small waterfall emerges between some of the rock cliffs. The snow capped peaks of large mountain in the hazy background. Clear blue sky with a single small white cloud

For #footpathfriday I'm using this photo!
We went out on a very cloudy day, assumig that we'd also get into rain.
But we didn't want to hold ourselfes back and hike into the clouds. of course, we didn't have epic vistas - but the mood up there was just unique. The limited visibility, the lack of sounds, the dim light.
I really enjoyed that day!

A tranquil and atmospheric rural scene unfolds in this image, capturing the quiet beauty of a frosty morning. The foreground features a field blanketed in a light layer of frost, its grassy surface glistening under the soft light of the rising sun. The frost adds a delicate sparkle, enhancing the peaceful and crisp atmosphere of the scene. In the background, a cluster of quaint houses nestles at the foot of a rolling hill, their rooftops also touched by frost. The houses, with their rustic cha…

Just returned from a wonderful 11km Friday afternoon walk along the boundary between the seasons...
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography

View of a mountain landscape from above a small lake with green/blue water, surrounded by forest and meadows. Snow capped larger mountains in the background.
View across a still half-frozen lake towards the other side basking in warm afternoon light. The grasses and reeds are completely dry and golden. Some trees scattered and the forest edge in the background.
Cute close up of a narrow path in the afternoon sunlight with heather (in bloom) growing on both sides. An old tree stump semi-overgrown with moss.
Close up of some heather near the 50m drop off toward the lake in the background. Beautiful blue water surface.

My today's #footpathFriday is one from the archives. I was really bad prepared that day, but luckily everything turned out well -- and I got this fantastic, dramatic shot!
more about that day:

A dramatic and breathtaking mountain landscape unfolds in this image, capturing the raw beauty and grandeur of nature. The scene is dominated by rolling green hills and rugged mountain peaks, their slopes covered in lush, vibrant grass and patches of rocky terrain. The hills create a natural amphitheater, leading the eye toward the towering mountain in the center. The mountain itself rises majestically, its steep and rocky face adding a sense of scale and drama to the scene. The peak is partia…

Crossing over, near Rossgundscharte.
(Picture from June 2025. Ahead lies the upper end of Rappenalptal, Germany's southernmost valley, and the Lechtal Alps in Tyrol further in the distance)
#FootpathFriday #LandscapePhotography

Black and white wide-format view of a narrow footpath near a mountain pass, going past a steep craggy cliff, before dropping a few hundred meters down (out of view). Far views into the mountains on the opposite side of the valley and beyond. An ancient gigantic side moraine on the opposite side of the valley... Semi cloudy sky.
