Long Distance Trails in Germany
Three season, shorter distance thru-hiking in Germany is my favourite mid-year pastime. I use the DeWandelaar website to plan my hikes and share this information and GPX files. The map shows routes I have walked or am planning. Click an icon to see the name and a link to the trail page.
