December 28, 2024,Spaziergang 🚶🏻🌳im Hohnsteder Holz-Riedesperrwerk

Small tour of Hohnstedter Holz 🌳🪵 in the neighboring town of Mörse. It was only a small round trip because it was already 3:00 p.m. but I still wanted to do something useful with the daylight.

In any case, it's better than having to struggle through Braunschweig with Saturday traffic 🙄 , I actually wanted to go to SFU to …

November 20, 2024,Wie schnell kann ich eigentlich gehen?

So today I did a performance test on my home route. Just walking 5 km without jogging. And what can I say, I didn't think it would …

Light fog, light drizzle and a strong forest aroma as well as lots of animals around.
Snails, snails everywhere...
and then the …

January 5, 2025,❄️❄️❄️Schneegestöber vorm 🥶⛸️🌧️Eisregen 5,4km

A walk with the dog in the snow flurry before the freezing rain sets in. Got back in time before the snow turned to rain shortly after 3 p.m.
As Komoot switched itself off without me noticing, I traced it with BRouter (interesting for altitude information). The lowest point in the Riedetal should be at 77m and the highest point …
