Preparation is Hard Work

With months yet to come, I already commenced the preparation of 2018 Holidays. Aiming high, I start building solid conditions right now – trying my best to keep motivation up by documenting the main efforts on Travelhector.

So here we go with my head in the clouds and my feet on any kind of mountain path.

Kampenwand – great to be on top

The first round has been the weekend at the Tre Cime di Lavaredo with Barbara and additional company by Barney Geröllheimer. With 1,000 meters of altitude difference, 3 ½ hours for the way up + 2 ½ hours down, old snow and new impressions it was a wonderful start in the 2017 outdoor season.

The second approach leads to the Kampenwand. Close to Munich and thus perfect for a half-day-trip with known and unknown hiking buddies, it is famous for a gorgeous view and silly rhymes: “I gangat gern auf d’Kampenwand, wannst i mit meiner Wamp’n kannt.” The way up with 1,000 meters of altitude difference is supposed to take about 3 or 4 hours – well, the hiking sprint team of the day (yes, that’s us!) reached the peak after only 2 hours + 15 minutes. Great tour with neat climbing elements on top of the world.
