#Wanderwege entstehen nicht von selbst.
Die #TranscaucasianTrailAssociation braucht unsere Hilfe!

Seit ich im Sommer 2022 in #Georgien eine Woche lang mit anpacken durfte, schaue ich ganz anders auf gut gepflegte #trails , weil ich nun weiß, wieviel Arbeit dahinter steckt.

Um so erschütternder ist es, lesen zu müssen, dass der Organisation im wunderschönen #Kaukasus dank der AmericaFirst-Politik die finanziellen Mittel komplett gestrichen wurden.

Seit gestern läuft deshalb bis zum Monatsende eine #Spendenaktion , die ich hiermit etwas promoten möchte.

Das Trail-Projekt wird von sehr engagierten und netten Menschen aus Amerika sowie vor Ort im Kaukasus vorangetrieben, anvisiert wird ein 3000Km Trail durch #Armenien , #Azerbaijan und #Georgien.
Ein Muss für jede Weitwandererin und Weitwanderer.

English:

#Hiking trails do not develop by themselves.
The TranscaucasianTrailAssociation needs our help!

Since I was able to help out for a week in #Georgia in the summer of 2022, I look at well-maintained trails in a completely different way because I now know how much work goes into them.

It is all the more shocking to read that the organization in the beautiful #Caucasus has had its funding completely cut thanks to the America First policy.

As a result, a fundraising campaign has been running since yesterday until the end of the month, which I would like to promote here.

The trail project is being driven forward by very committed and friendly people from America and locally in the Caucasus. The aim is to complete a 3000km trail through Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia.
A must for every long-distance hiker.

Thread: #Freudenthalweg Part 1

The hiking trail (153 km) runs from Hamburg to Verden and is marked with a white F. It is named after 2 brothers August and Friedrich Freudenthal. Both Born in the middle of 19th century and both Heidedichter (poets). The trail is one of the oldest in Germany and not so well known as others.

Awesome view from Oddagopoaivi in Sør-Varanger, Norway. Only slightly ruined by the empty beer bottle found at the peak.

Thread 3/3:
My favorite impressions of walking the streets of Verden /Aller.

And here are 2 more places to visit:
—> Wolfcenter in Dörverden /Barme (You can walk from the Dörverden train station (4 km) thru the forrest (passing the cemetery))
—> Pferdemuseum (in the former British barracks) Kavallerie Kaserne

Thread 2/3:

You are standing almost at the same spot (1/3) - on the levee, or the street that will cross the bottomland, over a bridge ending in the middle of town …
The river Aller has flooded the whole bottomland and the streets of Fischerviertel (January 2024).
