  • TenerifeTenerife – an impressive island Auf dem Gipfel des Sombrero Tenerife – the special Canary Island. Here you can find out more about the island, the life and its inhabitants, the Canarios. Hiking, climbing, bouldering We stayed for almost a year on the island. This offered numerous opportunities for hiking, climbing, bouldering and other adventures. The descriptions of the tours to the 10 highest peaks can be found in the Wanderführer Teneriffa. Living on the Canary Island In unserer Bar mit Antonio und Sombrero Our life in Tenerife was an impressive experience and the contacts to the Canarios always positive. The joy of life and the looseness of the population are then missing in Germany. As always, there are exceptions, but the majority are still more relaxed in the South. This is certainly due to the weather. Heartly welcome A reunion after the Christmas holidays in our village Villa de Arico was a warm welcome, completely spontaneous and honest. We are already looking forward to the next visit to our former native island of the time. If it is then again “Hola, que tal?” or “Como estas?” Merken Merken

  • ElsewhereElsewhere hiking, mountain climbing and adventure In the area Elsewhere there are numerous travel reports about adventures in other countries, detailed descriptions of different leisure activities and contributions to interesting experiences. Climb mountains elsewhere Anderswo in der Welt In the meantime I have seen some great places, but my “country list” is still very small. However, with each trip, the number of the highest mountains in a country increases as this is my kind of “main occupation” or my own focus. Since the ten highest summits of Tenerife, the ascents of the highest points of the country have become my passion. Each country, every summit is completely different and needs a different preparation and planning. One thing is becoming clearer. The height of a mountain does not necessarily mean anything about the difficulty. You choose your way to the summit itself, decide on the ascent and descent and are ultimately responsible for victory or defeat. Although the ascent of the Teide was only possible through consistent training and acclimatization, the chosen ascent of the Carrauntoohil to Ireland was, however, from the psyche, very demanding and no less exhausting. Despite its only around 1000 altitudes, the direct rise from initially almost…

    • ScotlandScotland = Highlands, scotch and tartan? Scotland belongs to Great Britain and occupies approximately the northern third of the large island. The total area of 78,772 km² includes several island groups. Since 1437, Edinburgh is the Scottish capital and the national currency is the British Pound. Scottish languages braun, grau, nass – Schottland The Scots speak English, “lowland scots” (scottish), but now they learn French in the elementary school (as I learned from nice, older ladies at the museum in Fort William). There is also a typical Scottish language spoken in the west of Scottish Highlands, Glasgow, and islands of the Inner and Outer Hebrides: Gälic. Gàidhlig is a Celtic language, related to Irish, and is spoken by about 70,000 of the 5 million inhabitants of Scotland, representing just over 1% of the population. From the 9th to 11th centuries Gaelic was spoken in most parts of Scotland. His reverted influence can now be found everywhere in Scotland by name and person names. In the 18 th and 19 th centuries, Gaelic was strictly forbidden as a result of the landlords and rulers of the country. Dominant colors in Scotland While in Ireland the color green is predominant, this is…
    • IrelandIreland, known as Green Island Hiking on Ireland, new country, new highest mountain … After I had been able to get to know a nice Irishman during my London trip, and spontaneously already spontaneously planed to travel to Ireland next, it was finally from 3 to 8 September 2015 so far. Irland von oben As so often, I decided for Ryanair and started from Memmingen to the adventure. The only thing planned in advance was the ascent of the highest mountain of the green island and overnight at Killarney International Hostel. To this I had to reach the bus directly after the landing or alternatively an hour later drive, but then the remaining piece from Killarney to the hostel to run. However, my reflections were neglected in the run-up after a look at the scoreboard. Instead of the departure time at 14:20 clocks appeared clearly and clearly Boarding 15:40 clock. Hmmm, what now? Plan B for Ireland I decide spontaneously for the tip of an acquaintance who took over the search for a hostel near the airport of arrival because Internet is scarce. Landing with over two hours delay and now so plan B. Let´s go to Ennis. A great…

Czech , Czech Republic or  Republic Czech?

Further information on interesting excursions, famous climbing areas, holidays and hiking in the Czech Republic (“Czech”).

General information about the Czech Republic

Czech Republic (Czech Česká republika) is a landlocked country in Central Europe with about 10.5 million inhabitants. It is bordered in the west by Germany, in the north by Poland, in the east by Slovakia and by the south by Austria. It is composed of the three historical countries of Bohemia (Čechy), Moravia (Czech Morava) and Silesia (Czech Slezsko).

The capital and largest city of the country is Prague.

Recommendations for the Czech Republic

The highest mountain  is the Schneekoppe. The border between Poland and the Czech Republic runs over its summit. On 1602 m you have -good visibility – a great and very wide view of the two countries.
Highly recommended are hikes in the Czech Switzerland. This impressive national park borders directly with the Saxonian Switzerland and the transition from Germany to the Czech Republic is in this case fluent.
Especially impressive is a tour to Prebischtor. This is the largest sandstone gate in Europe and attracts most visitors from near and far every year.

Tschechische Krone as currency

Although Czech belongs to the European Union, the euro was not introduced as a currency. You still have to pay with the Czech crown in the country.

Although the tourist-known places accept euro or other currencies, but the exchange is in so-called exchange offices.

However, it is advisable not to do this directly near the border, but rather a little further in the interior of the country. There you usually get significantly better exchange rates.

The prices are for the most part really cheap and therefore purchases of branded products are worthwhile. Purchases on the so-called “Fiji markets” are discouraged.
