When Bavaria comes to Saxon Switzerland
After it didn’t work out two weeks ago, on this day a buddy from Bavaria, whom we visited in July to have a hike in the Alps, came to visit us, because he has never seen the Saxon Switzerland before.
Endurance test, third degree
Today was supposed to be a special day with a special challenge. A 22 km hike? No, that’s not a challenge anymore. Carrying about 6 kg on your back? I want to get used to it, with tendency to carry even a bit more. Over a thousand meters of altitude? That’s more like it. Keeping the heart rate below 160? That could be really difficult, or is good preparation everything?

In the rain through Saxon Switzerland
Since it is not worth driving very far in bad weather, we decided to take a walk through Saxon Switzerland.
Where the sun is rising
“You are crazy!”When getting up early at four, hiking through the dark forest in the rain and climbing rocks to watch a sunrise is crazy, I like it to be, because I was also rewarded for it!
