Awesome picture and a beautiful tour!
If you want to try this please make sure to be careful, have via ferrata equipment and a guide if you don't have experience with serious alpine via ferrata/fixed-rope routes.
That is no beginner tour and has multiple dangerous parts if you don't know what you are doing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08VRLeR5log (not my video)
That said, this is an awesome experience and there are guided tours available often including gear.
Have fun and stay safe.
(Edit) A similar Tour without the via ferrata parts is the Höllentalklamm -> Osterfelderkopf hike still very beautiful. In german https://www.outdooractive.com/de/bergtour/zugspitz-region/hammersbach-hoellentalklamm-osterfelderkopf/102714923/ Similar tour though a bit longer and descending instead of ascending in english https://www.outdooractive.com/en/mountain-hike/zugspitz-region/from-mount-kreuzeck-through-the-hoellental-hoellentalklamm-/1397829/
Hier findest du eine recht leichte Strecke, die dich durch ein paar wunderschöne Dörfer an der Weinstraße führt.
I initially thought it's was their photo, given the title, but turns out it's not
Outdooractive ist dein Freund.
Als völliger Anfänger würde ich mir mal Rundtouren unter 12 km und weniger als 200 Hm raussuchen. Dann hast du einen Bezugspunkt und weißt in etwa, wo du stehst.
Edit: Hm = positive Höhenmeter, also bergauf. Nimm unbedingt die doppelte Menge Wasser von dem mit, was du ursprünglich beabsichtigt hattest. Wenn du das Wandern nicht gewohnt und eher untrainiert bist, wirst du vermutlich saufen wie ein Pferd bei den aktuellen Temperaturen.
Germany! It's not that uncommon to have parks like that. I think there are at least two in my area that I know of. I'd link something informative, but it's in German.
Here are some photos of the area I had in mind and here some of the other. And here's one of the ponies I saw :-)
в Германии есть такие маршруты, чтобы и природой насладиться и напиться.
например - идёшь а там по дороге бутылки стоят. самообслуживание кстати - коробочка, куда евро-два кидаешь, стаканчики одноразовые в начале пути брали...
шнапс, конечно, на любителя... ликёры неплохие делают там.
Hey.
I lived in Vienna for a few years and went to slowakia to do some hiking in the tatras twice.
Are you going to the high tatra or the the low tatra?
Renting a car in slowakia can be as cheap as 60 Euro.
The low tatra is like the bavarian/venetian alps. Ďumbier is i think the highest point around 2000m asl and has numerous very accessible routes to its peaks with a nice view. we departed from Brezno. It took us 3.5 hours to arrive at the peak. Tour
The high tatra is a little bit more complicated. It has some dangerous tours and people underestimate those mountains. Outdoor active is a good website with an interactive map and suggestions for tours. (i already put the high tatra in)
When they suggest "difficult" as the level of the hike, it is, in fact, difficult.
I did the slavkovsky Stit. It was a nice and comfy hike for 5 hours and it had great view, thats why we did it.
I am from the italian alps and grew up running up and down those rigid mountains, so especially if you are going alone, please do not underestimate the Tatra. We did another tour and well, it was a little more difficult than we expected.
There is no phone reception what so ever. The mountain rescue exists but be aware that while in other parts of europe (austria, italy) it is basically free, in slovakia it's not (since 2006) and your insurance just might not cover it (read up, even the european health insurance isn't valid here, though disputable.)
If you're up for something longer, I can recommend the Turmwanderweg in Bad Freienwalde.
If you want closer, Müggelsee or Teufelsberg are popular: https://www.komoot.de/guide/65/wandern-rund-um-berlin (so many options!)
Personally I wouldn’t want to rely on electronics, you’re just asking for it to go to shit/run out of battery when you need it most. Can’t go wrong with a paper map.
£14.50, waterproof, covers the entire trail at 1:40000, which is a really nice scale - a great balance between 1:50k and 1:25k. Harvey maps use the same grid as OS do, but a slightly different legend - you’ll pick it up quickly though.
If you’re set on electronic, OutdoorActive has both OS and Harvey, as does ViewRanger, but they’ve been bought by OutdoorActive so I’m not sure if you can still sign up.
Not sure what’s going on with the OS app though, the play store link on their website is dead but the App Store one isn’t. Maybe email them and ask for a copy of it to sideload?
I would recommend you the Rax area! (on the wikipedia page you can see some hikes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rax)
I hiked there two months ago and did the "Törlweg" (https://www.outdooractive.com/en/hiking-trail/wiener-alpen/wanderung-zum-ottohaus-vom-knappenhof-/14467155/) with some friends which was absolutely beautiful and took us about 4 hours in total. But once you reach the "Ottohaus" on the top plateau you can hike to other huts and summits as well.
Another great hike is the "Schneeberg", which is also located in the Rax area. I`ve never been there, but its on my to-do list. I heard that its really beautiful!
All in all i think these places are the best for hikes near Vienna, since they are not so far away. Ive never went there by public transport, but i guess it will take around 1-2 hours to get there.
The good news is that the restaurant behind them is still up and running and gets good reviews:
Innsbruck is amazing, but I'd also recommend Graz and the rest of Steiermark. There is plenty of hiking nearby, from Drachenhöhle near Bruck an der Mur to Thal near Graz, which has a beautiful little lake. (And the Arnold Schwarzenegger Museum apparently. That wasn't there when I was there last.)
Friends of mine found lots of Bärlauch on this Tour today. Must be in the small forest close to niederolm
na klar meist über Outdoor Active (teils kostenpflichtig), ansosten hab ich noch einen alten Skitourenführer, der Örtliche DAV und natürlich Freunde und Bekannte.
How far are you willing/wanting to go? If you take the Straßenbahn 4 or 9 to the end, you will be in Bad Dürkheim. From there you can find a lot of really nice hikes into or along the Pfalz.
In the other direction, you can take the Straßenbahn 5 to Weinheim or Schriesheim. From Weinheim I found this hike past two castles and some nice forests quite nice - I've done it a few times with visitors. From Schriesheim I like this hike by a castle ruin and over a mountain quarry with great views.
If you have access to a car and can go further away from public transport, I can suggest some other nice hikes in the Pfalz or Odenwald.

ETA: 5 Sterne Review "riecht nur manchmal nach Erbrochenen" XD
To add to the other comment, there is a guy that has documented over 700 user generated trails on the "Outdoor active" website.
Click the "Tours" tab and then there's an icon for a "Map" view. For each tour there is a terrain map and he specifically adds information for which parts are singletrack.
ride.ch is a good source for tour ideas and they will give you a rough tour description. For gps data you'll have to pay a bit of money.
I also wanted to add that there definitely are mtb-only trails. Flumserberg, Chur, Lenzerheide are a couple examples. However I agree with u/travel_ali that most of the trails are user-made and inofficial.
Oberbergischer Kreis maybe (https://www.outdooractive.com/de/wanderungen/oberbergischer-kreis/wanderungen-im-oberbergischen-kreis/1468312/) or the Sauerland even though that might be too far for a day trip
I was up there a week ago. Went in Big East Fork, up Old Butt and camped at Deep Gap the first night. The camp sights closer to Stairs Mountain are nicer but have no water. The Deep Gap water source is only a trickle a few hundred yards down towards the Boy Scout Camp. Weather conditions have gotten colder since then, but there were only a few points with frozen pools on the trail when I went. Those are dangerous and I recommend hiking poles. You might see more ice on trees... I really recommend Outdooractive. https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/en/. You can create your own tours and plan routes with drag and drop and it actually recognizes the trails. The GPS functions in airplane mode so you can see exactly where you are, how far you've gone and how much elevation change there is on your route.
You can start here: https://www.outdooractive.com/de/skitouren/engelberg/skitouren-in-engelberg/24525673/
I guarantee there’s a ton of free information out there on the web... if you’re willing to do a little translating via google.
German Here. Frankfurt is Not very known for its mountains but there are a few good routes around.
https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/de/wanderung/frankfurt-am-main-und-umgebung/steinheimer-grenzwanderung/7211637/ This is one example (warning: in german)
The area around Frankfurt Taunus is also pretty neat! (Altkönig)
Disclaimer: I dont live there but went hiking for a few times in that area.
I guess you are traveling by car?
The Harz was mentioned before and it's probably one of the best options since it's just a little detour of your route. Torfhaus/Oderbrück - Brocken and return is quite easy to do if you aren't in an abmysal shape. It's a modern trail, all sections which might be boggy are covered with footbridges, so normal sport shoes will do the job if it is not raining. On sunny weather bring sunscreen, you surpass the tree line. A short steep part is following old concrete plates which were used by the former GDR border patrol.
Another option futher to the west might be Sauerland southeast of Dortmund. The hills are a bit flatter compared to Harz, but also has some nice trails. Just have been there once around Brilon Wald, it was a really nice walk.
Some trails: https://www.outdooractive.com/de/wanderungen/sauerland/sauerland-wanderdoerfer/1471428/
Ich gehe eine etwas längere Version von dem hier.
Warum war sie eher nicht so der Brüller? Auf den Fotos sieht sie ganz schön aus.
Von Wien aus zum Semmering, entweder per RJ oder Regionalverkehr, nach Semmering und von dort zum 20-Schilling-Blick. Tagesausflug, an sich leicht zu gehen.
Still pretty crazy, but definitely secured. I think being clipped off to cables is kind of the point of a Ferrata isn’t it?
I spent weeks researching and planning the route. Double checking every resource etc. I plotted it out on a GPS tracker guiding me to the exact path. Looking at this every 10 to 15min because so easy to go on the wrong path. I attached a link of the path I did.
I didn't find any location as small as you described. But still it is daunting if you fall at certain parts you are gone.
Really recommend for experienced hikers/ climbers only. Also good weather is essential.
Glad you made it.
Also bones route
And since this is kayak camping... I'm building to a 4 day civilized adventure, about 100km along a lovely, inhabited river stretch. Lots of places to stop and wander, some museums to see, cafes, etc. But in between the villages there should be enough space to camp.
That's what I use mine for. I'll pack lunch, take the train and explore trails in Brandenburg. Last week I was on this leg of the 66-Seen-Wanderweg. It handled those bumpy trails just fine.
It's an all-purpose bike. It's not the fastest nor the lightest, but it will never dictate where you can and can't go. I'd rather pedal a little more than to turn around at the sight of dirt. If I didn't want to sweat or leave paved roads, I'd take my motorcycle.
I was looking at the Ortler Gotland as an upgrade/replacement for mine. I tried it at Fahrrad.de in Charlottenburg, and it was 550€. Hub gear, hub dynamo, non-hydraulic disk brakes, mud guards, good riding position, and slightly lighter. I decided to rejuvenate mine instead, but it was a solid contender.

Das Steile Ufer kennt eigentlich kaum jemand, ist aber eigentlich eines der Hidden Gems um Bad Harzburg und Goslar herum.
Es ist ein steiler Abhang nordwestlich von Harlingerode, zu dem man nach ein paar Kilometern Wandern kommt. Auf outdooractive findet sich eine Tour, die ans Steile Ufer heranführt: https://www.outdooractive.com/en/route/hiking-route/harz/kaltenfelder-tour-industrieflair-bei-harlingerode-am-harz/192588260/
Von hier aus hat man einen wunderbaren Rundumblick auf den Harz, Oker mit dem Sudmerberg und der ganzen Landschaft davor und dem Steinfeld im Nordosten.
> Sally in the woods
Second this. Head up to Brown's Folly if you can - easily one of the best views across the city.
If you wanted something closer to town then a walk up Landsdown to Beckfords Tower is always fantastic. Even better if you bring something to eat and drink along.. https://www.outdooractive.com/en/route/hiking-route/bath-and-north-east-somerset/-playing-the-picturesque-4/131906621/
Cheers, have a look at this Link, we did the same Tour, Just in opposite direction. Unfortunately Not in english https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/de/route/wanderung/allgaeuer-alpen/uebergang-prinz-luitpold-haus-zur-kemptner-huette/26789150/
I've recently done a Lose Hill, Mam Tor, Edale circular! Pretty good route, relatively easy underfoot! Here's the route I used:
I also looked at the TMB trail for this year. After much consideration, I am going to walk the GR54 with a tent. Walkable in 8-10 days.

It's a neat short hike, 2h to the peak if you chose a fast-ish paste. We started running slightly above the Gimpelhaus.
I guess this is what you are about to do: https://www.outdooractive.com/en/hiking-trail/bernese-oberland/tourenplanung-am-7.-august-2018/116460034/
You could also exit the Eiger Ultra Trail earlier and take a shorter route (you could go for Bussalp instead of heading towards First or decend towards Grindelwald at First instead of hiking all the way to Grosse Scheidegg).
As far as I know there is a Hotel on top of the Faulhorn.
Sorry, never been to Stuttgart, but I can recommend the website outdooractive. They also made an app for ios and android, but it's not cheap (~10€). But the benefit to contribute your own trails and have GPS navigation is worth it.
Oft findet man Touren z.B. aus Wanderführern auch im Internet wieder, mit genaueren Beschreibungen einzelner Stellen oder der Art und Beschaffenheit der Wege. Dann kann man sich eher etwas darunter vorstellen wie schwierig es ist. (z.B. für Rinnkendlsteig).
Sonst hat /u/uanod auch sehr gute Tipps gegeben. Hier kannst du auch gerne fragen, es ist ja nicht so, dass deine Fragen, in der Flut von Posts hier, untergehen werden :)
Just a side note... You may want to stay away from the BIG venues... Not for any other reason than sometimes it's great to get "away" from it all... We were in Schlanders in South Tirol a little while ago and had the trails pretty much to ourselves... We camped in Schlanders and had the pick of a couple tasty bits of trail as well as some big alpine rides. And by "pretty much to our selves" I mean... In four rides, we bumped into ONE other group of riders on the trail down... Passed them, and never saw another person. Perhaps check out www.outdooractive.com toggle to english, and search the areas you want to ride. it has loads of trails and tours logged in the system. Their updated app is also boss for following along the route (like a navi) if you feel like it.
You can have a look through www.outdooractive.com as well. Toggle it to english (unless you speak German) and scan through the areas you want to ride. They have a good few rides recorded into the system as well as being able to plot your own rides. Might be worth having a look through before you set off... They have an app as well, which you can use as a navi...
Number one, EV9 doesn't really *cross* the Alps. See this elevation profile. One bad day where you have to go over a ridge at 1000m, that's it.
Second, other than Austria and southern CZ, it's an under-development project from what it sounds like in its Wikipedia description ("much riding will have to be on roads" in Poland/CZ and "the EV9 in [Slovenia/Croatia/Italy] is still under development: though the route may still be cycled, it may be on busy roads"). See also its map legend on its official page. Where it is a red dashed line ("Route under development" and "Route at the planning stage"), EV routes are often little more than a concept, or at best a GPX track file that links together some roads. So . . . probably not so much a concern weather-wise, but possibly challenging navigation- and traffic-wise. Those are not insurmountable challenges, but it is not an easy, signed route.
Concur with others that your bike sounds great. Make sure the maintenance is done, add a Gepäckträger, some Schwalbe Marathons 35mm, Ortlieb panniers, and Ergon grips (all the best bike touring stuff is German!), and it should be good.
Along the Rhein river is a nice trail. You can also select different stages. (And have a good wine in between as it’s partly vineyards).
Then if you want to take a longer train ride, the Black Forest is amazing.

There are tons of resources available for multi-day hikes in the Swiss alps, but unfortunately for you, most of them seem to be in German. Outdooractive.com has English information available, though! Here are their suggested Interlaken hikes. Maybe something in there could work for you?
plenty of Tours outside of Munich, easily accessible for American Standards. My trail knowledge is sort of limited, but about an hour and a half (three in bad traffic) you can get to the alps where there is plenty of pedaling + descending to be had. I can point out some downhill parks if that suffices, if not i can browse some german sites and deliver a couple of tours like this one which i really liked
Edit: a Google Search for "mountain biking in the bavarian alps" should net a bountiful harvest. Most of the Stuff, especially south of Munich, should be easily accessible.
Rental shops: absolutely no idea about that, please excuse me :(
Ja, die hat mich auch sehr gewundert - ich vermute, wie wollten möglichst von jedem Bundesland, und auch in wiennähe was dabei haben - aber für einen Tagesausflug von Wien, auf für Kinder geeignet finde ich die Myrafälle wesentlich spanender.
The link to the track. The Foto is about 5 km in, the Weißbachschlucht.
If you have the chance, don't go on weekends, the trail is pretty narrow and there are a lot of tourist with dogs and stuff.
Depends on what you want to do. As you said, its very different in the north and the south. In the south and up to about half of the country its usually pretty warm during the summer months but in the north you can get real mountain hiking. Sweden is kind of different with outdoor laws. You can hike where ever you like as long as you arent on someones lawn so you can litterly go to any lake you want.
https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/en/hikes/sweden/hiking-in-sweden/1433217/
Check this out. You can go almost everywhere with buss and train here so transport will most likley not be a big issue.
With a good pair of boots and a decent backpack you can walk between windbreaks with firewood and just carry water and food. Just google around and you can find most things out.
No big trek. Took the cable car from Locarno to Cardada and walked the rest. Next day we descended to Valle Verzasca, but it was steep as fuck. Felt my legs for days. But Ticino is generally a lot of up and down walking.
Would surely be nice to walk further the Via Alta Vallemaggia and maybe descend to Valle Verzasca through the Osura valley after maybe having stayed in the Rifugio Sambuco. Check out the whole Via Alta Valle Maggia here: https://www.outdooractive.com/en/mountain-hike/tessin/via-alta-vallemaggia/21929614/#dm=1.
Most descriptions on this website are in German, however it might give you an idea about feasable climbs: https://www.outdooractive.com/en/tours/#area=*&cat=Alpine%20Tour&wt=Wilder%20Kaiser%20(6655%20Kaisers%20Austria)&zc=7,11.8927,48.04871
A really scenic ride is the tour around the "Bavarian Sea" aka the Chiemsee. The lake is located about 50 km south-east of Munich and the "round course" of the Chiemsee is about 60 km. Here is an exemplary description: https://www.outdooractive.com/en/bicycle-ride/chiemsee-alpenland/chiemseerundweg-genussradtour/1516297/ If you need any support while in the Munich area, feel free to contact me!
Just got off of work for my spring break so I can take my first backpacking trip that isn’t right in my backyard…
(I live in the Southeast US and have only really backpacked in sections in that part of the country)
Guadalupe Mountains National Park here I come! I’m so excited I just didn’t have anyone to tell thanks all
Here is my perspective itinerary
Anyone who has been here before, how does this seem?
My personal to-do list: in the morning, take the bus to Kaltenbronn tourist center and from there hike through the forest and high moor via the Grünhütte (restaurant and beer garden) to the Sommerberg, the mountain above Bad Wildbad. If that was enough walking for one day, take the funicular down. If you want more, or want to plan a second day, you can also do the treetop path and the fairy tale path there.
In the valley, you can enjoy a stroll through the Kurpark, do some light shopping and explore the local gastronomy.
There are also two spas available, Palais Thermal and Vitaltherme. The local water is supposed to have healing qualities, as evidenced by the story behind the town's name: During a hunt, a nobleman shot a boar, but the beast escaped. Later it was tracked to a spring, where it bathed its wound. (I assume that the almost deadly wound caused by the very precise shot of the nobleman had healed to a small scratch by the almost magical healing water)
Not helping you choose amongst your two options, but I would strongly consider crossing Portugal from North to South, inland, on the "estrada nacional Dois" (EN-2) Scenic Route (700+ km)
I did it last summer as part of a longer trip around the Iberian peninsula and loved it! budget-wise, probably the cheapest area to biketour in western Europe, great cheap food and cheap sleeps, if you want to make it longer, finish in Seville via Cádiz, and start in Galícia, for example.
Whatever you end up doing, enjoy your adventure!
For DACH region alps I would suggest Bergfex App or outdoor active
If you prefer paper maps the best Ressource are probably the maps from the Alpenverein Map Pages - sadly only In German printed by Freytag & Berndt
Das S‘Schustagangl ist ein schöner Klettersteig mit einem relativ kurzem Zustieg. Er ist sehr steil, aber nicht all zu schwierig. Weitere infos:
My boats are on the coast of Espoo and usually there is ice until mid-May so I don't even think about paddling between November and May!
In theory we should have similar conditions, but I have the worst luck and only get out when there is high wind and waves. When the weather is nice there is too much boat traffic for it to be enjoyable. I'll do day trips to the islands off Espoo, but it's only "ok" paddling. Mostly I explore lakes because they're less stressful and often have no motor boat traffic.
What I really like doing are river trips. There are quite many passable rivers. Last year I did the Lappenranta to Kouvola route at a speed of about 27km/day in hard headwinds. Not too bad, lots of great camping places. (https://www.outdooractive.com/en/route/canoeing/lakeland/vaelivaeylae-canoeing-route-lappeenranta-kouvola/39500145/#dmlb=1).
This year I would like to do either Loimijoki (https://www.outdooractive.com/en/route/canoeing/kanta-haeme/loimijoki-canoeing-route-103-km/19342078/) or the Vanajavesi (https://www.outdooractive.com/en/route/canoeing/paeijaet-haeme/vanajavesi-paddling-route/41639356/).
Which hike did you do? We would like to go again.
I did this 6,5 hour hike for my birthday last year and loved it! It’s beautiful.
This is in the Clywydian range, around Moel Famau! Here's my route
Snowdon is meant to be a 10/10; be sure to check the times though, there's an agreement for bikes to stay off the summit paths at certain times of the year!
I love Wales though, even when it's busy it's really easy to get away from the crowds; the bike parks are all next level too!
By the way, there are some hiking trails that you can do with inline skates. Maybe this is also interesting for you.
Es ist auf dem Weg von Malbun zum Galinakopf an der Grenze zwischen Liechtenstein und Österreich. Hier ein Link zu der Tour.
I refer you to the first word of my previous answer to your question about whether you can camp without a car. Nobody has to walk or cycle 50 miles unless they want to. Although I do ACTUALLY RECOMMEND getting on a bike. It massively extends how far you can travel and what routes you can take. Although going off road will take a bit more of a bike packing setup. Scotland has legal wild camping and Dartmoor has also if you want to travel south. Wild camping while technically you need the landowners permission is tolerated on many of the more popular routes especially if you operate under the leave no trace principles.The biggest obstacle to camping is fear, fear of exercise and fear of the wild. The practical considerations are not so hard to overcome. YouTube has thousands of channels about camping. If you can't be bothered to search for any here is one of my favourites. https://youtu.be/wlA5-GT3zkU. Not for the faint of heart. If you're scared of getting on a bike or walking with a backpack there is plenty of public transport to get you closer. Campgrounds are plentiful with many options to start with. I recommend finding one that allows a camp fire. Here is a list of routes near you surely there is a campsite near one of them https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/en/hiking-routes/newcastle-upon-tyne/hiking-in-newcastle-upon-tyne/118422849/
So to be clear it is absolutely possible to camp without a car.
>biovacs
The correct spelling is
Bivouacs
They are free camping spots across NL and BE, and some/most even have a wood gazebo where you can set up your tent which is very nice in winter since they are very wet countries.
https://www.outdooractive.com/en/bivouacs/netherlands/bivouacs-in-the-netherlands/25076277/
I personally don't think there's a better walk within 90 minutes of Belfast than this one.
https://www.outdooractive.com/en/route/hiking-route/bushmills-to-ballintoy/42812033/
You could extend it by starting in Portrush and heading along the beach to White Rocks, then up to Bushmills around the coastal path. There's also no need to stop in Ballintoy, crack on to Ballycastle via Kinbane Castle. Portrush to Ballycastle isn't realistic in one day, especially with little light.
There is a train station in Brebu from where you could either go to Resita or to Caransebes. From Caransebes you could go to Baile Herculane if you have the time and maybe spend a night in Herculane and get the train back by morning. Do have in mind that the train schedules are not very friendly and there might be only two/three trains a day. You can find more information on trains here. If you end up in Resita, here you can find a small hiking trail.
Unfortunately, there's not much you could do on that part of the county. If you could get access to a car you could go visit other places like: Cheile Caras National Park or Cheile Nerei-Beusnita National Park.
E5 map The best I could find. The page is in German but there is a map included. There a lot of commercial tour operators that offer versions of this route with a certified guide. Definitely recommended if you are not a hiking pro as some parts of the trail are a bit tricky (but overall doable for everyone who is in good physical condition)
You can literally start anywhere in the belt. There are lots of interconnections to public transport all around the city, whenever the green belt finds its way to cross a tram line or subway (u-bahn) or suburban train (S-Bahn).
It should be possible to pick up a map (yes, a physical one) at the TraffiQ-Mobilitätszentrale at Hauptwache (that's the local traffic information center right in the middle of the place). Unfortunately tomorrow it is supposed to be closed (?). An alternative might be the tourist information at Hauptbahnhof (central station) or Römer (both saturday/sunday 9:30 till 16), but no guarantees that they actually offe the map. However, that might be your best shot.
Anyway, maybe this one can help you to get started:
Have fun, it's nice out there! :-) I can recommend the eastern part (Lohrberg/Bergen-Enkheim) as well as the south (Stadtwald). At the Nidda is flat and okay/nice, but might get crowded - you'll find more remoteness in the other parts (saying that, Lohrberg is a popular place, but it's actually nice and offers quite a view!).
I don't think there are any you have to pay to view. Maybe pay to create a premium account, but that would be way beyond your needs to just look at route suggestions.

Eher keine gemütliche Wanderung aber definitiv ein Tip abseits der großen Maßenwanderungen sind die Klafferkessel in den Schladminger Tauern. Aufgeteilt auf zwei Tage mit Übernachtung (Gollinger oder Preintalerhütte) wird ein Wochenende daraus. https://www.wildewasser.at/de/wasserwege/details/klafferkesselrunde.php
Eher gemütlich aber auch sehr schön sind Bodensee+Hüttensee+Obersee gleich ums Eck. (Unbedingt raufgehen!) https://www.outdooractive.com/de/route/wanderung/schladming-dachstein/tal-der-stuerzenden-wasser-3-seen-tour-steirischer-bodensee-/1554805/
We went to one in Switzerland in the early '80s it was the bluest blue you could imagine. It was Rhone Glacier that was being drawn uphill by the heavier side already over the mountain pass.
I'm American but based in Holland. My girlfriend and I are headed for a long weekend to do the Kesch trek (near Davos).
Mont Blanc is awesome, you should definitely do it. I've spent quite some time up there for both snowboarding and trail running, but have yet to do the full tour.
We only have a long weekend and opted to drive instead of fly (seems safer, but gives us even less time), so that's how we landed on this guy. I also think it will be much less busy. I need some topography or I'm going to go crazy. :)
Sportliche Aktivitäten? Wie wäre es mit einem zweitägigen Aufstieg auf die Zugspitze?
We did a tour from (almost) Stuttgart to Friedrichshafen a few years ago, our route was more or less the following: Filstal/Göppingen -> Geislingen, climb the Alb -> Ulm -> Biberach on the first day, then Biberach -> Ravensburg -> Friedrichshafen.
It's pretty urban until after Geislingen, after that you're basically on cycle routes all the time. There's the Donau-Bodensee-Radweg from Ulm all the way to Friedrichshafen, which was great.
I'm sure there are more scenic routes, though. Especially the first part isn't that beautiful, and also Friedrichshafen was quite disappointing. But if you plan to cycle three days, I can recommend this route. Here is some more info.
You can check out the "Siebenmühlental" it's not that much altitude but pretty nice
Link, but you can also just search it in google
I personally have not been but it's very high on my list! Several of my coworkers have (it's pretty cheap and accessible from Frankfurt) and absolutely loved it. Compared to other European beach destinations it is not yet overrun by tourists. This link is one of many articles I found on hiking in Malta - and I'm definitely saving this for future trips!
​
Zoom in to the region between Salzburg, Liechtenstein and Bozen. This part of the Alps has a very high density of huts which gives you great flexibility when hiking.
Here's one possibility in Austria on the Dachstein Glacier.
https://www.outdooractive.com/de/ has tons of inspiration. You can search by area, difficulty, type of trail etc. and even download GPX files if you create a free account.
I had a series of guidebooks I found on Amazon because it was hard find this info online when I lived in Italy.
Lovely trail in Pfronten, Germany.
I started running at 6am and after a combined 1000m climb i got this gorgeous view into the adjacent valley.
German here. Weather in Germany is unfortunately VERY volatile. End of September you could have 25°C and the bluest sky or 5°C and rain.
The area bordering Munich to the south is very beautiful, though and there are plenty of hikes around those glacial lakes like Tegernsee, Starnberger See, Schliersee etc.

There's spots where you're allowed to camp but can be done hut to hut too.
As others have said, Rome is really great for traditional sightseeing, especially if you're interested in the Roman Empire (or "old stones" as my wife used to say). You can spend weeks there. My suggestions would be you visit the known attractions: Vatican city including St. Peter's Basilica, Castel Sant'Angelo, Colloseum, Forum Romanum, catacombs
So you're going along the famous Via Aurelia. That should give you some hints on where to stop.
Some obvious spots:
- The White Beach Rosignano (make sure to check why it is white before)
- Volterra (if you're ok with a detour of ~40km into the beautiful Tuscany hinterlands; perhaps visit a vineyard somewhere there)
- Pisa with the leaning tower (the city itself imho is quite beatiful too and without many tourists)
- Viareggio/Forte dei Marmi for some sandy beaches
- Cararra, the city of white marble (it's not built in white marble but all the quarries are there)
- Cinque Terre (5 beatiful small cities; the banner of this subreddit shows Cinque Terre I think; difficult by car though)
- The Italian Riviera (it's imho the most beautiful coastal region of Italy as there are mountains directly at the coast; some small towns still have beautiful medieval city center without cars, like Pietra Ligure, Finale Ligure, San Remo; also there are beautiful mountain village in the hinterlands like Apricale)
I'm not Italian but I've spent multiple holidays in Rome, Tuscany and Italian Rivera. I'm sure though there are still spots that I missed myself.
I don't know how you can arrive from Munich but I can give you this link as a documentation. I used it as well.
Tons of options. A couple of well-known long-distance trails are the Höhenweg 2 and Höhenweg 9 (Höhenweg aka Alta Via for the Italophones).
I'd look into combining Höhenweg 9 with the Drei Zinnen Tour. The section known as Innerkofler or Paternkofel has some excellent Via Ferrata.
I usually plan my hikes on: https://www.outdooractive.com
Their map-feature is great (it took me some time to understand it though). https://www.outdooractive.com/en/tours/#bm=osm%3Asummer&filter=r-fullyTranslatedLangus-5863001,sb-sortedBy-0
You can filter by activity, region, difficulty and much more.
Nein, du Flachlandtiroler. Du kannst nicht 18 km für € 200 einzäunen. Die Pinnisalm (also das "Wirtshaus" wie du es genannt hast) ist mit einem Elektrozaun mit dem Matrialwert € 200 eingezäunt worden. So einen Zaun auf 18 km im harten, steinigen Almböden zu installieren ist etwas anderes.
Ich finde das richtig so. So eine Stadt lebt von Touristen, die Fotos machen, dementsprechend ist es im Interesse aller, dass die Fotogenität der Stadt gewahrt bleibt. Da jetzt ein Gebäude reinzupflanzen, welches sich stark mit den umliegenden Gebäuden beißt, ob jetzt ein grauer Betonklotz oder ein Weeb-Tempel, ist problematisch.
Bei uns im Ort wurde vor Jahrzehnten schon ein hässlicher Klotz hingesetzt, allerdings hatten die nur die Erlaubnis bekommen, weil er vom Hauptfotopunkt aus nicht zu sehen ist. Letztes Jahr hatte einer der Besitzer der Häuser am linken Rand des Stadtkerns die Idee, hinter seinem Haus ein mehrstöckiges Gebäude mit Eigentumswohnungen zu bauen. Der Stadtrat hat das aber abgelehnt, eben weil es den Fotoblick zerstören würde.
There are of course tons of options to choose from. Many huts won't be staffed by the end of January though, so expect to carry all your food and sleeping gear. Some suggestions: one classical tour would be a in the Silvretta on the border between Austria and Switzerland. Or the Venter Runde in the Ötztal.
There are quite a lot of hiking trails that are completely doable in mediocre weather (i.e. anything that's not snow or a thunderstorm) without special equipment. OP, check out this. I'm sure you'll find something.
Just saw your post. If you're still planning on going check out: https://www.outdooractive.com/de/mountainbike/schwarzwald/t6-hirschkopf-trailtour-abkuerzung-rosshaldepfad-dornstetter-weg/19716660/
About an hours drive from Offenburg.
Did this trail last weekend and, even though it rained for a good hour or so, had an absolute blast! Would recommend a fully with all the roots, but I saw a local on a hardtail slaying it as well.
Hey, I used to be in the area often and found rellay nice spots. Check out https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/en/hiking-trail/romantic-rhine/panoramic-trail-st.-goar/9703202/
For example and then go from there. Really beautiful
I believe we hike this trail. It was tough for me but I weighed 250+ at the time. https://www.outdooractive.com/mobile/en/hiking-trail/zugspitz-region/via-kochelbergalm-and-the-bayernhaus-hut-to-mount-hausberg/1397827/
Normally hiking trails are everywhere. We love hiking so almost every forest is full with well developed hiking trails.
Here is a site about hiking trails and their difficulty:
https://www.outdooractive.com/en/hikes/hanau/hiking-in-hanau/1435828/
Obviously there is the limes nearby. There is also a "Brothers Grimm" hiking trail. Sounds interesting.
Joa, übermässig Zeit muss man da nicht verbringen.
Eine schöne Wanderung ist aber z.B. dieser Klassiker hier:
Mit der Bahn:
Mit der S1 bis Rathen fahren, mit der Fähre übersetzen, anschließend zur Bastei hoch und durch die Schwedenlöcher zurück, am Amselsee vorbei und wieder zur Fähre.
Mit dem Auto:
Oben an der Bastei gibt es einen Parkplatz, von da zur Bastei, Abstieg durch die Schwedenlöcher und dann weiter den Rundkurs zurück.
Classic route is from schliersee to tegernsee https://www.outdooractive.com/en/hiking-trail/tegernsee-schliersee/vom-schliersee-zum-tegernsee/104724203/
you can take the train to schliersee and then back from tegernsee to munich.
Beer & co can be drunk in the "tegernseebrauhaus". Take a bathing suit with you and take a nice swim there.
OK, now lets say I have a custom .js file that is NOT on my computer, but is an API of a third party service. I have the URL to the file. How should I act? I have already tried the page you suggested, but it doesn't seem to work when i add it to my "mytheme.libraries.yml" file.
This is what I have added:
outdooractive: remote: https://www.outdooractive.com/alpportal header: true js: https://www.outdooractive.com/alpportal/oax_head.js?proj=api-outdoors&key=BL3NXIHF-EMWGKN4K&lang=en&leaflet_gshim=1: { type: external}
I also added - 'mysubtheme/outdooractive' to mytheme.info.yml
EDIT: As soon as I add any dependencies to the file my page cannot load. I am using a custom theme based on Bootstrap 3 theme.
