April 11, 2022,2022-04-11 Runde von Sassnitz zum Königstuhl und zurück

Nice round, on the steep coast to the Königstuhl. Unfortunately, the stairs to the beach are no longer there, so we had to walk back up most of the way. The first opportunity to go to the beach was at the Kieler Bach.

By bus to Sassnitz, looked around the harbor a little and then to Wedding (not recorded). Here begins the Hochuferweg, which is one of the most beautiful hiking trails on the Baltic Sea, with its magnificent views of the sea and the chalk cliffs. The beautiful beech forests are part of the Unesco World Heritage.
Unfortunately, the Wissow handles that …

January 1, 2022,Von Sassnitz nach Königsstuhl / Nationalpark Jasmund (Insel Rügen) 🥰👑🪑

At the beginning of the year I start with a classic hiking tour: the high bank path on the island of Rügen. This approximately twelve kilometer long hiking trail connects the port cities of Lohme and Sassnitz on the Jasmund peninsula. His path runs right along the eastern high bank. You also pass the world-famous Königsstuhl.

... this painting by Caspar David Friedrich already fascinated me in my youth that I looked at it over and over again. I remembered that today when I stood at the Wissower Klinken and looked down at the chalk cliffs.

A not quite strenuous but beautiful tour. The high shore path on Rügen's cliffs offers spectacular views. The path is a good 12 km long and leads along the high shore above the Baltic Sea along the chalk coast. It is certainly one of the most beautiful and spectacular hiking trails on the Baltic Sea. Guaranteed a tour without boredom, …

Nice easy hike through the Unesco World Heritage beech forest / Jasmunder National Park on a wide and well-marked hiking trail. Some places a bit muddy after rain. The steeper passages are defused by stable wooden stairs.

June 17, 2022,Wanderung Königsstuhl - Wedding

You can make the tour relatively relaxed by taking bus no. 23 up to the Königsstuhl and then walking the blue/white hiking trail in the direction of Viktoriasicht.
More than 95% of the route is in the forest and is great to walk with good shoes, as it is mostly downhill.
