2024A summer with many different faces.
Part 1: The road first lead to Germany with a visit of friends in Lutherstadt Wittenberg. With them we went to the national park Sachsische Schweiz (Elbsandsteingebirge) at the German-Czech border.
Part 2: From there I crossed Czechia and visited for 2 days the Bayrischer/Bohmischer Wald, another national park. Then to the Austrian-Slovenian Karawank mountains. Here I walked a large part of the Panoramaroute Southern Alps (panoramaweg sudalpen).
Part 3: The next part took me across the border into Italy, for a short visit of the nearby, Julian Alps (Friuli). My third time here. Still astonished by its beauty. In the Dolomites my car broke down more or less, after having fueled up with bad petrol! Be warned for Tamoil in Auronzo di Cadore!
After a last overnight at the nice lake aerea southwest of Munich, I drove back to Lent-NL.
Enjoy the photos!

2024Roundtrip starting near Chur in rainy Switserland, on to rainy and snowy Berninapass, down to drowsing Italy, then to the sun in Adamello national park and Brenta Dolomites. Finally to my actual destiny Cuneo province (Dronero, all the valleys west) where sun and rain playes with each other. Then to Valchiusella at Gran Paradiso (stopover campsite) and back to Switserland. Here rain started as soon as I left the Great St. Bernard tunnel and stopped in Basel. So diversion to the French sun in the Colmar region (Vosges/Alsace). And back home.

2023Almost 3 weeks on route in Scandinavia. With the minicamper Kangoo overland through Denmark and taking the boat from Hirthals to Kristansand. Then crisscross through southern Norway, camping wild and on campsites, walking short and longer trails with overnight camping in tent. Always pretty lucky with the weather, rain just had stopped or started while leaving an area.
Crossing the Swedish border to go to the province of Varmland to visit friends near the village of Sunne.
Then through southern Sweden, a few nature reserves and via the famous Bridge at Malmo to Rodby taking the ferry to German Puttgarden. Driving back home by car with many heavy showers and sunny spells. All together a long trip, approx. 5000 km.

There are much more photos to be seen, but I can not put them all online off course. 🙂
Here is the gallery. There is an extra bird gallery, from the puffin colony at Runde-Norway
