The smile stone challenge continues and now invites YOU to find this pretty smile and take it for YOU 😊...

The idea of depositing the pretty stone on the large Schierensee came to my mind quite quickly. But before that, of course, we should go for a walk around the small Schierensee. So today we went back to NP Westensee …

July 1, 2023,SH - Umrundung 🥾🥾 Kleiner und Großer Schierensee🌳💦🍃💦

The weather app stood me up today 🙆‍♀️. A reasonably dry phase was predicted between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., but instead it poured all day 💦. The path around the small and large Schierensee runs on beautiful, sometimes narrow paths almost exclusively through beech forest 🌳😍, the canopy 🌿🍃 so dense that almost not a drop reached me. Although …

Today we walked around the small and large Schierensee lakes. For the sake of the dog, we set off a little earlier than usual, but it was still quite hot today 🥵😅
The path is almost entirely shaded, and we took every opportunity to send Ylvi into the lake to cool off 🐕🥵😁💦
There are always beautiful views of the …

A wonderful tour through the shady forest, still fresh in the morning. Mostly small nature trails lead along the lakes. Every now and then there are small bays that invite you to take a look or swim with a clear view of the lakes. This morning nature is all ours and we enjoy the silence. Only at the end do …

December 30, 2025,🎆 Jahresabschluss-Runde: Schierensee-Revanche geglückt!

Three years ago, we had to abandon our hike around the Kleiner and Großer Schierensee lakes in frustration – the mosquitoes 🦟🦟🦟 practically drove us away. But today, on the penultimate day of the year, the conditions are perfect. No buzzing pests, just clear air and the absolute tranquility of the lake landscape. It's a great feeling to have finally …

Fantastically beautiful route, perfect for warm days as there are lots of trees and it's close to the water. Not suitable for strollers!
