Love cats and cycling
It's finally time for another camper van adventure that we kicked off with another stay with my former HP colleagues and their wives at Riederalp on 6th September 2019. We are on the road for the next 3 weeks with the goal to explore famous swiss mountain sides and where ever the weather and road... Continue Reading →
In June, we went for another longer hike in the Northern Black Forest. The route was once more retrieved via outdooractive.com. We took the camper van for a stormy night out on a parking lot in Unterstmatt where the route started. Unterstmatt is not a town but a group of houses along the Black Forest... Continue Reading →
While preparing for another longer hiking & cycling vacation in September, we did another beautiful hiking tour in the Nothern Black Forest in Bad Herrenalb. This time the GPS track from outdooractive.com worked perfectly fine. Bad Herrenalb can be reached by train (S-Bahn) or of course by car. It's located 15 km east of Baden-Baden, and 22 km...

For our first extended trip with the camper van we decided to visit the Vulkaneifel in the upper West of Germany.Wikipedia mentions that it is the least densely populated district in that state and the fourth most sparsely populated district in Germany, and yes Wikipedia, this is in deed a perceptible fact.

I spent quite some time working for an account located in Switzerland, this is where I met the... Continue Reading →
We left Finale Ligure on 13th September 2018 with the fabulous plan to drive to Livigno, sleep there, do another day riding the fancy bikepark there and then head home. Unfortunately the weather in the alps started to change from sunny to rainy on our way back, so we just had a quick stop in... Continue Reading →
The rest day yesterday was spent with walking 12 km, more serious tanning business that resulted in a bit of sunburn and of course eating ice cream. As today is the last day in Finale, there was no excuse not to climb up to the famous Nato base and ride some trails from there. We... Continue Reading →
After having spent one day with a run along the beachside and serious tanning approaches on the beach, we did another MTB trail tour yesterday. After the Kill Bill II experience, we checked for trails in the range up to S2 - I recommend trailforks for checking the skill requirements. The tour had two thankful... Continue Reading →
