Even though I have probably spent 2 full years of my life at Lago di Garda, there’s only very few hikes in the area that I have walked. I was never a big fan of hiking as a kid. I still remember the day my parents decided to take us up Monte Baldo and how… Continue reading Impressioni di Monte Castello di Gaino
Winters aren’t what they used to be. For the past few years, Munich has seen the most beautiful weather around christmas. Just not you classic winter wonderland type thing. More like 10°C to 20°C and mellow wintery sunshine. But really, that was the perfect weather for some beautiful, fun winter outings – as long as… Continue reading Dusk on Mühlegg

Two weeks ago I went on a day tour up Heimgarten with a bunch of friends from Toronto and despite the sweating and panting on the climb up it was a phenomenal… Continue reading Heimgarten + Herzogstand
