I only started to realize how I missed travelling once the landscape started to change and we were driving on the Brenner highway. Destination for our 5 days trip with the camper van was South Tyrol again, Völs am Schlern. First trip after a long long time, not only because the van has been in…

Parco Nationale Gran Paradiso – Valnontey
We wanted to use the last day without snow for a long hike in the national park Gran Paradiso which is known for its wildlife with ibex, marmot and eagles. We parked the camper van on the public parking space in Valnontey where we slept 2 nights. The campsite was already closed when we arrived,…
On our way to Sulden or how to survive narrow pass roads
The weather starts to change and rain is forecasted almost all over Europe. We were looking for the next place to stop by and decided to head to Sulden to conquer an easy 3000+ summit. The weather forecast was not great but okay. We decided to take scenic routes to reach Sulden from Levico Terme…
Enjoying a week at Lago di Levico
2020 has been a different year for everybody so far. While we took social distancing very serious we also did not go on vacation, even not on road trips, whilst this would have been a safe thing to do. Thus we decided to start our 3 weeks roadtrip at the end of the summer holidays…

Extended weekend at Dockweiler (Vulkaneifel)

The chosen campsite…
Finale Ligure – Camping Tahiti – Day 5 // Nato base uphill, Crestino and Super Groppo lower trail
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…
Finale Ligure – Camping Tahiti – Day 3 // Rugetta original & Briga Trail
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…
Finale Ligure – Camping Tahiti – Day 1 // A thrill with Kill Bill II
Unbelievable but true – we are at the mediterranean sea, with mountains, and trails. I had to go for swim almost immediately yesterday after we arrived in the late afternoon. The water is warm like in a bathtub, not refreshing but nice! Today we planned a trail tour with + 1000 meters of height, but…
Schlanders – Camping Vogelsang – Day 3 // One hot hike, no bike
For today the WiFi connection is annoying me so much that I am just going to share some pics of the hike today. The route I created is available on outdooractive.com, if you are ever visiting Schlanders and are up to gaining some meters of height by foot. It was very warm again today, we…
