Love cats and cycling
The weather in Zermatt was not optimal so we decided to take an interim break at Interlaken to have a rest day. We stayed one night at TCS Camping Interlaken directly next to the river Aare. And once more directly next to the railway and in addition to that next to the mooring point for... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →

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... Continue Reading →
Around 30°C with a burning sun today but we were telling ourselves today or never - uphill Sonnenberg, downhill Monte Sole (Sunny Benny) and Tschilli trail. We tried that already in 2013, on that very first bike vacation still riding hardtails, and I remember that we had to push our bikes and were not able... Continue Reading →
Yesterday we had another transfer day, while travelling to Schlanders / Vinschgau we made a quick stop at the Salewa concept store in Bozen, which is really nicely built with a climbing wall outside of the building and a well organized shop inside. Once arrived in Schlanders on Camping Vogelsang, we managed to set up... Continue Reading →
Yesterday was rest day, people who know me may wonder what a restless me does on rest days. I had a ton of great ideas what could be done on rest days - climbing on the climbing tower on the campsite for example, or take the bus and visit the town of Sexten, go for... Continue Reading →
