My hikes – walked myself, documented with care
Looking for inspiration for your next hike? Then you are in the right place. On this page you will find carefully chosen routes that I have walked myself – not a collection of other people’s routes, not AI-generated tracks, but first-hand experience.
Every one of my hikes comes with real photographs, personal tips and an embedded Komoot link so you can plan onwards or walk the route yourself straight away.

New routes appear automatically
I keep adding to the collection. New routes appear in this overview automatically once I have written them up and published them. So do look in from time to time, or follow the new posts on social media.
Linked directly to Komoot
All my routes are available through my Komoot account. There you can save routes as favourites, use them for GPS or leave a comment. If you use Komoot yourself, follow me – then every new route reaches you automatically.

The Itzenplitzer Pingenpfad leads through old mining craters, dense deciduous forest and right along a reservoir with a tower you can barely believe. Right in the middle of the former coalfield, between mineshaft, forest and still water, lies one of the most surprising trails I have walked recently. The Itzenplitzer Pingenpfad near Schiffweiler in the… - Boundary stones at dawn: hiking on the historische Grenzweg Oberthal
Low-hanging sun, tree silhouettes in golden red, ancient boundary stones in the fallen leaves – the historische Grenzweg Oberthal delivers everything at once. When the forest is on fire – and the sun has only just risen There are hikes where you pull out your phone within the first few minutes and never put it… - Rheinufer, Schelmenturm and floodplains: a city walk in Monheim am Rhein
A city walk in Monheim am Rhein combining Rhine panorama, medieval Altstadt and wide floodplains over 3.4 km. When the evening light sweeps low across the Rheinauen and the wind turbines on the opposite bank stand as silhouettes in the haze, you are in exactly the right place on the Entdeckerschleife Monheimer Altstadtrunde. The loop…
