The historic center of Linn is particularly recommended in summer. Then some restaurants are open where you can sit outside. Always good for a break.

May 22, 2022,Burg Linn – Histor. Ortskern Linn Runde von Krefeld-Linn
Today I wanted to take advantage of the predicted sunny weather and explore the area around Linn Castle in Krefeld.
In wonderful hiking weather, we actually started directly from the Linn train station (there is also parking) with a tour through the park at Linn Castle. Really a great start, as the many photos show. I don't know why it …

A very varied hike for every season on non-asphalted paths. In Linn you can take a break in various restaurants.

Joint final tour for the ❤ Project 2025, which benefited the Stups children's hospice in Krefeld, initiated by @markusSupertramp. It was great to meet and get to know old and new people from the community again.
Thanks to Markus for organizing!

What a beautiful, wonderful, and emotional day it was today....

Today, several of my KM sponsors and #Selbstläufer (self-runners) came together for the final ride for the Stups children's hospice.

In beautiful weather, we cycled through the Latumer Bruch and to Linn Castle. A diverse group, almost everyone previously only knew each other through KOMOOT, yet all with the same …

Today was finally the day: a group hike with the KM hikers to benefit the children's hospice in Krefeld.
The tour, planned by @markusSupertramp, started on Kurkölner Straße and led us toward the Latumer Bruch nature reserve. In perfect weather—as announced—we first took a leisurely stroll through a small wooded area and past wide fields.

This Saturday at 12 o'clock I started in Lank-Latum.
Along the Latumer See and some fields we went towards Linn. The weather was wonderfully sunny, although the wind was still cold. Shortly before Linn Castle there was a wonderful little path through the landscape conservation area. ☀️
I took a break on the first bench at the moat by the …

From the parking lot to Latumer See, continue between Im Herrenbusch and Im Zappenbruch. Past a farm and between Auf dem Rott and Auf dem Pesch in the Lank-Latum Nord district. …

February 2, 2025,Latumer See - Burg Linn
In beautiful weather from Lake Latum along the Latumer Bruch to Linn Castle. Then a quick walk through Linn, but everything was still closed 😒. Through the Greiffenhorst Park and along the "In der Elt" nature reserve back to Lake Latum.
