19. March 2018 hikeminded2 Comments

In Eichhorst next to the lock we had a short meal with simple but very tasty fish variations at the Schorfheider Fischexpress. Also the take away smoked fish is very good. But please pass on the espresso, it’s made out of coffee powder. Yuck.

Location: Pechteichsee – around Grabowsee, eastern shore – (there is a little bushwhacking) – Rosenbeck – along Werbellinkanal – Eichhorst – back trough the forest and along the western shore of Grabowsee / Distance: 13 km / Public Transport: There is a bus from Eberswalde to Eichhorst, but from Berlin Center it’s rather complicated / from city center: 60 km / East / Weather: -3 °C, sunny / Camera: Nikon D90, 18-105 mm lens

Berlin Day Hike: Walking On Water At Teufelssee

Aside6. March 2018 hikeminded10 Comments

When winter becomes really cold we’ll get the pleasure to walk on the lakes we swim in in summer. Small Teufelssee in Grunewald was full with ice skaters and I was unhappy to have no skates. On the other hand: The bumps on the ice where rather big and I saw more than one skater […]

Berlin Day Hike: Crystal-Clear Air And Partially Frozen Lake At Stienitzsee

On the last picture you can see that the lake was frozen on the opposite side. We guess it has to do with stronger currents on the side we hiked. Location: Rüdersdorf, Strausberger Strasse – along Stienitzsee, western shore – (be careful: the way from the shore back to the path in the forest […]

The following is a guest post which I wrote and which was published on The Trek in 2016. It had around 1K shares and I think it’s still valid today. As I saw that the pictures have already disappeared and I don’t wanted it to disappear completely, I decided to post it here again. This is kind […]

Berlin Day Hike: Early Morning Sun At Werbellinsee

Gallery19. February 201819. February 2018 hikeminded7 Comments

Werbellinsee, one hour north of Berlin, is one of the clearest lakes I ever saw in the region. As we had a short stay at Schorfheide, we were able to have a 6km hike very early in the day. As I’m not a morning person, I always miss this perfect, pinkish, misty and still clear light […]

Berlin Day Hike: Frozen Landscapes At Liepnitzsee

Gallery15. February 2018 hikeminded11 Comments

They said there would be snow today and we already started with some expectations. Instead we had a very rainy hike around Liepnitzsee and some smaller lakes. It was beautiful anyway, like always, when strolling through the majestic beech forests near Wandlitz and the contrasts between the frozen and unfrozen parts of the lake made […]

Give Your Brain A Break: Natures Alphabet

Aside12. February 20185. March 2018 hikeminded9 Comments

As our brain is specialized in the recognition of patterns, and giving sense to things without sense is its specialty (which can also be quite annoying in everyday life), it is little wonder, that we see faces, figures and characters in nature. I even find a lot of boobs and other private parts, but that’s […]
