June 15, 2025,66-Seen-Rundweg - Tour 11 - Von Leibsch nach Märkisch Buchholz

Crazy! I was really afraid of a heat battle today. It turned out to be one, but I enjoyed it! Apart from the "fully exposed to the sun" and the "fighting squadrons of mosquitoes in the shade" sections, today was totally varied. First, we went through the meadows along the Dahme flood canal, which I rarely saw because of the …

2nd day of the hiking weekend from Wendisch Rietz to Halbe:

After a restful night, refreshed and refreshed, we went back to the 66-Seen-Weg at 9 a.m. to tackle the next 25km to Halbe. We might run into a handful of people throughout the day.
The section around the Heideseen near Köthen was particularly beautiful. Everything was just like in …

After Frank Meyer's wonderful idea to organize a relay hike for the 25th anniversary of the 66 Lakes Trail, my conscience started nagging me. I still have a few gaps to fill on my route. So, without further ado, let's go!

In cloudy weather, we took stage 13 of the 66SW under our feet. This time it went from Halbe Bhf to Leibsch via the Köthen lakes and the tower on the Wehlaberg. Experienced a lot of nature on this tour, such as very loud woodpeckers, and also saw and heard some cranes. The heron was very shy and a cheeky …

January 16, 2024,19. Tour 66 Seenwanderung Köthen nach Halbe

Today we walked a wonderful section of the 66 hike in the most wonderful winter weather. Deserted paths, the dog was able to run freely for the most part. In Märkisch Buchholz you can get coffee to go behind the church in Mein Markt for a euro that still tastes good. It's easy to get away from Halbe, even if …

... I absolutely had to get out.. I had been trying for 1 1/2 days to install my printer on the new notebook.. it just didn't work. My head was spinning and there was no end in sight, so off into the woods and run away from the IT gibberish.

June 4, 2023,66 Seen-Wanderweg: Etappe Leibsch nach Halbe

Today it went from Leibsch to Halbe via the Köthen lake landscape, in the south-east of Berlin.
The path to Köthen is a concrete slab path that is beautifully embedded in a flower meadow. This path led along a river. You soon reach the Köthener See and after a few more kilometers you are already in Köthen, where there is …
