Germany’s Red Rock Canyon

However, you must first fight yourself through the Palatinate Forest to get to this colorful group of red sandstone rock. For a particularly intense color experience, you should visit in the spring, because then there is no foliage in the path of the sun and the rocks look beautiful and illuminated.

Crystal clear lakes awaits you near Berchtesgaden

A couple years back we drove through the Berchtesgadener Land, and before we arrived at the Königsee, we saw a “Zimmer frei” sign of an open vacancy at an B&B of those villages. We discovered the impressive natural scenery around the most famous mountain lake of Bavaria. We decided to take the boat – and […]

Germany also has a Great Wall

In some places only a few rocks rise steeply, on others, for example in Neinstedt, the compact wall looks like it was created by supernatural powers.

Impressive Rock formation in the Saxon-Switzerland

I saw this impressive Rock formation from a distance when looking afar from the Königstein castle in Saxony. If you want to go there off the beaten track through the Saxon- Switzerland, then you should choose the path through the “Höllenschlund” gorge. Off the marked trail, an old path leads down to rock steps into […]

Bavarian and Austrian Traditions, the Dirndl and Lederhosen

Born and raised in North Bavaria, it was natural for us to wear the traditional costumes or “Tracht” at least once a year to a festival.

What is a Winewalk or Weinwanderung?

In my hometown in Lower Franconia, wine cooperatives and winegrowers, wineries and regional restaurants organize so-called wine tours or wine hiking days from May to October. I have been at some of these Winewalks, and I truly enjoy it. The “Weinschlendern” as they also call it, started at the Restaurant Sonnenschein at the Main River […]

Did German Monks discover the Bier?

We regularly consume beer, know that Germans are involved in global Bier production and can distinguish beer types. Hardly anyone really knows since when the first beer was developed. Many people would answer to this question that it was invented by monks Unfortunately, that’s not quite true, monks started brewing beer long ago (1100’s), and […]
