Easy Walk & Talk to Schloss Solitude (22.02.2026)

Hello everyone!

Ready for a new adventure in Stuttgart? On Sunday, the 22nd of February 2026, we'll share the experience of a new walk together in the city of Stuttgart: this time we'll meet after lunch somewhere in Stuttgart-Weilimdorf and the walk will lead us up to Schloss Solitude. From Schloss Solitude some participants will probably leave taking a bus, while others will enjoy a further walk through the park to go back to Weilimdorf.

Easy Walk & Talk to Schloss Solitude
(Sunday, 22.02.2026)
https://www.meetup.com/around-stuttgart-together/events/313292428/

With this event we’re introducing a new format in our group activities: supporter-only meetups.
After two years of organizing regular Walk & Talk events, it has become necessary to share the organizational costs more fairly (Meetup subscription, planning time, online coordination, logistics).
For this reason, some events will now be reserved for members who acknowledge such existing costs and actively support the group with a small annual contribution (as low as €5).
This helps to keep the group visible on Meetup, and able to offer social and cultural activities over time.

🥾 Today's Walk
We’ll enjoy an easy Walk & Talk in Stuttgart, gradually heading up towards Schloss Solitude, one of the city’s nicest and most symbolic viewpoints.
As always, the walk is not about speed or performance, but about having a good time while chatting and sharing the experience.

📅 Event Details
Date: Sunday, February 22, 2026
Meeting Time: around early afternoon (some time between 13:00 and 15:00)
Meeting Location: neighborhoods of some train station in Stuttgart-Weilimdorf
Walk Distance: approximately from 6 to 12 Km, depending on when you decide to leave.
Our Main Destination: Schloss Solitude
👉 Exact meeting time and place will be shared privately with confirmed group supporters who express the wish to join.

🔐 How supporter-only events work
Are you interested in joining the meetup? Simple, to take part in this event you just have to send the organizer Ģǐøvąņʼnȋ MCMLXIX a brief message, where you confirm either that
(1) you have already supported group activities within the last year, or that
(2) you are going to send a minimum € 5 donation via PayPal ( https://paypal.me/Salvarani/5 selecting Family and Friends) before the day of the event, or that
(3) you will hand € 5 in cash to the organizer on the day of the event.
Message template: if you plan to donate € 5 in cash, you could concisely write "Hi G. (3) to join the walk on Sunday". That's all!
Once that’s done, you’ll receive a message with the exact meeting point and time. Beware that it won't be possible to join the event last-minute on the the day when it takes place: you have time to join only until the midnight of the day before. Of course, if you are already among the group supporters and aren't sure whether you can join the meetup, the recommendation is to join anyway, and then simply cancel your participation, if later you realize that you can't do it on that day.

This approach allows us to ensure long-term sustainability without restricting the Meetup group to mandatory memberships or introducing platform paywalls.

🌱 The Spirit of Our Walks & Talks
We don’t walk only to see places —
we walk to connect with the world around us.
Please be ready to:

• introduce yourself briefly,
• engage in friendly, respectful conversations,
• contribute to a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere.

ℹ️ Practical Notes

• Participation is at your own responsibility.
• Bring comfortable shoes, water, snacks, and weather-appropriate clothing.
• Last-minute updates will be shared via Telegram ( https://t.me/Stuttgart_together ) and WhatsApp ( https://chat.whatsapp.com/GJ18X19AM697ADKwkK4bLl ).
• Events may be canceled in case of bad weather or unforeseen circumstances.

🙏 A final note
There will still be completely free events in the schedule of our group activities, and the Telegram ( https://t.me/Stuttgart_together ) and WhatsApp ( https://chat.whatsapp.com/GJ18X19AM697ADKwkK4bLl ) group chats remain open to everyone to suggest social and cultural activities anytime.
Supporter-only events are simply an additional format, for those who feel that contributing a small amount once a year is a fair way to support something they enjoy and benefit from.

Thank you for your understanding — and for helping to keep this community alive, either with your small financial contribution or with your time and energy 🌿💪

Looking forward to walk with you in Stuttgart!
