March 6, 2025,NRW Naturpark Hohe Mark: LandStreifer "Haard an der Grenze" (06.03.2025)

We started our short vacation with this LandStreifer - 2 days in the Hohe Mark Nature Park.
A beautiful, unspectacular forest tour. Mostly on natural paths, but in between someone has also tipped gravel onto the path - it looks like it was drawn with a ruler (picture 16+17) ... you don't even need it 😒.
When the world is …

On a beautiful sunny day, my next LandStreifer went right through the Haard. I've already walked parts of the route, but not the original LandStreifer "Haard an der Grenze". But I got some great new impressions along the way and captured some of them in photos. I liked it and would love to do it again sometime.

🐻A beautiful mixed forest, frequent changes of direction on different surfaces, narrow and wide paths and above all: enjoy the peace of the forest... a recommended circular route and at the end of the tour: a stop at "Mother Wehner"! 😋👍

The next Landstreifer. I've been in this area many times, but it's always different and beautiful there. The signage with the purple Landstreifer signs is complete, the tour is short but offers a lot of forest floor under your soles.🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🌞⚒️

November 22, 2025,Oer-Erkenschwick, LandStreifer "Haard an der Grenze"

With this fantastic weather, we're off on another country stroll today to enjoy the beautiful landscape between the Ruhr area and Münsterland.

Sometimes with leaves, sometimes with pine needles underfoot – sometimes on narrow, root-strewn paths, sometimes on wide, roughly gravelled tracks – we make our way through endless, beautiful, light-filled forests. In the Brinksknapp nature reserve, we particularly enjoy …

On election Sunday, I chose the Haard. As expected, it was full, but away from the main paths it was also nice and quiet. It was wonderful to be able to walk without a jacket again.

After a long absence, it was finally time for a delicious waffle at Mother Wehner's again. So we set off and hiked the Haard country trail along the border.

Everything went perfectly; it was a peaceful and beautiful hike.

As always in the Haard. And to top it all off, the waffle at Mother Wehner's – absolutely perfect! 🥾🥾⚒️
