This Thursday was Fathers Day here in Germany. As it is usual in my Family, we went on a little Family Walk. This Time around, it was just me and my Mom, but it was still great. We had decided to go and find the Sandhöhlen, or Sand Caves, near Blankenburg in the Ostharz. Obviously,… Continue reading A beautiful Hike

Boardwalks in the Harz
Hiking through the Harz is always awesome. There are just so many Paths to Explore the Area. A lot of Trails lead Hikers from A to B. Overall, there are probably hundreds, if not thousands of kilometres of Hiking Infrastructure scattered about the Place. Some are narrow, and some are wide. Sometimes though, like when… Continue reading Boardwalks in the Harz
Narrow Trails
I really love it to Hike around in the Harz exploring the Area. These past few Days, that was no real possibility though. It was stormy, and I also did not have that much Time to spare. When I am out in Nature, I tend to follow some rather strict Principles. I do not litter,… Continue reading Narrow Trails
Wanderlust
There are several German Words that can describe a desire to Travel. All those Words are uniquely beautiful, yet they mean all the same. I myself would definitely see me as a Fernwehmensch. I absolutely love it to Travel and Explore new Places. When I stay at one Place for all too long without a… Continue reading Wanderlust
Respect Nature: #LeaveNoTrace
This Week, I got to get out and Explore in the Harz quite a bit. It really enjoyed it to spend some Time in Nature. Doing Photography there was also a lot of Fun. I also, to my dismay, found some Trash again. Mind you, it was not as much as there was in the… Continue reading Respect Nature: #LeaveNoTrace
Almost getting that Stempel
A while ago, I went to the Sösetalsperre to get a Sonderstempel there. Back then, I was thwarted by some Forestry Operations. So I decided to try again this Afternoon. There Weather was nicely Mediocre. It was a little Windy, there was some minor Snowfall, and it was a little Cold. But I kinda liked… Continue reading Almost getting that Stempel
Not getting a Stempel
Ever since I got that Sonderstempel for the Harzer Wandernadel here in Osterode yesterday, my Interest in collecting those flared up once again. And so, after finding out the Location of yet another Sonderstempel at the Sösetalsperre, I was on my Way to grab that after work today. Things did not turn out as planned.… Continue reading Not getting a Stempel
The Hexenstieg
Starting in Osterode, the Harzer Hexenstieg is just under 100 kilometres long in its entirety. While it is a ‘short’ Trail in the grand Scheme of Things, it is the longest official Path in the Harz. One Time, I actually walked the first Stage of the Hexenstieg in Reverse from Buntenbock to Osterode with my… Continue reading The Hexenstieg
In the Bremketal.
Today was a really beautiful Day. The Weather was nice, and I got to go on a little Hike in the Bremketal with my Mom. It was awesome. Hiking is always a nice Thing to do. Hiking with your Family is even better though. And do not worry, all current Rules were followed. A Tree… Continue reading In the Bremketal.
Höhlen & Burgen [HWN 101 & 151]
After a while of not collecting any Wandernadel Stempel, I decided to go out to Scharzfeld today. There, I actually earned two new Stempel. I arrived in Scharzfeld around 2pm. It took me quite a while to find the appropriate Parking Lot, but I did, and after Parking the Car, I only had to Walk… Continue reading Höhlen & Burgen [HWN 101 & 151]
