β Sportive Hike: Brocken (26km, 900m β¬β¬)
Ilsenburg Bhf, Karl-Marx-StraΓe 1, Ilsenburg, DEπΆ 5 euro fee (payable on site, in cash) to cover Meetup fees & a little extra for the organisers. Thank you π
π If you have to cancel, please do so by 6 p.m. the evening before (or write to me explaining why you are cancelling β just like friends do). I will consider later cancellations as no-shows. Thank you π
π€ Confirmations are possible until shortly before the start.
----------
βππ₯Ά It's going to be cold. It's going to be exhausting. It's going to be an adventure.
π¨π±π€― This tour is for experienced hikers with good equipment.
π§ You can find the route on Komoot.
π Getting there: HBX from Berlin to Ilsenburg β arrival in Ilsenburg at 10:29 a.m. I will be boarding at Berlin Alexanderplatz. According to my information, you can take the train with the Deutschlandticket.
Please check your train connection the day before again, because German Railway Company is doing some minor changes on the track caused by a damage on the track.
π Return journey: HBX from Ilsenburg to Berlin β departure from Ilsenburg at 5:31 p.m. There are later alternatives if you miss the train.
π³ Description
- We will hike from Ilsenburg (240 m) to Brocken (1,140 m) and back: 26 km, 900 m elevation gain, 900 m elevation loss.
- It will be strenuous! Muscle soreness is very likely.
- On the Brocken, it will (probably) be cold, windy and snow-covered; in the valley, it will be warmer and without (?) snow.
- We will only take short breaks to eat or drink something. We will stay on the Brocken for about 15 minutes, then it will get too cold.
- Our pace is about 4 km/h β that's comparable to a pace of 5.5 to 6 km/h on flat ground.
If you don't catch the train back in time, there are other trains back. However, they are more inconvenient.
Besides, it's really about the athletic aspect of the tour β even if the snow, the forest and the view are really beautiful! You have 2 minutes to look around and take photos.
- Recommendations:
- Bring sufficient water (2-3 litres), food, and hot tea or coffee if desired. There are no refreshments available along the way.
- The restaurant at Brocken is crowded with tourists arriving by train. We will not have time to stop there.
- Therefore: Bring plenty of water! Bring plenty of food!
- Bring cash: 5 EUR for the organisation plus some for any expenses along the way. In Germany, cash is king.
- Clothing β layer up: Wear multiple layers, lots of thin layers with merino wool. A down jacket is worth bringing for the summit, but it will be too warm on the ascent.
- Rain gear (just in case)!
- Magnesium, electrolytes.
- Blister plasters, if necessary.
- Waterproof hiking boots!
- Spikes, if necessary, in case it is slippery.
- Hiking sticks / Trecking poles.

----------
People with good friends live longer, happier, more succesful and healthier. Big plus: good friends are fun to be around.
Hence, we offer this friendship workshop.
Some people say, βIt's hard to find close friends in Berlin.β
Berlin, the city of a thousand possibilities... I know what you mean... I feel you.
.
.
π Let's do a workshop on real friendships!
- Up to 40 people
- An easy-going facilitator guides through the evening
- You get to know each other
- latest research about real friendships
- Those who want: meet again. Simple.
.
Be surprised, how familiar you will feel after three hours.
.
.
β° The door opens at 6:45 p.m. Be punctual, be on time. Germany ;).
- Hang up your coat, go to the bathroom, get a tea, chat a bit, find a seat, and then get started.
- No entrance after 6:59 pm, because workshop has started by then. No exceptions.
.
.
π± 4 years of work - 1 workshop
For four years, I have researched and experimented on how people become friends.
This evening is the result.
You'll get the latest bites of friendship theory, plus practical tools that are easy to implement.
Above all, you'll try things out together. It's fun.
- Once, a participant said to me: βGeorg, this stuff works magically!β
- What shall I say? βYes! I hope so! That's what we are here for.β
Imagine: a room full of pleasant people who are looking for real friendships.
.
.
π Do you know the Mere Exposure Effect?
It says: The more often you meet, the more familiar you will get.
On the workshop, I will tell you why your nervous system is like this. It is particularly relevant for shy, anxious or introverted people.
.
Hence, friendship grows on pleasant reunions, connection, reliability, and emotional depth.
.
To support this, we offer a wide range of activities: hikes, excursions, walks, women's evenings, men's evenings, and workshops on personal development, social skills and communication.
.
Until you are connected with the right friends and click with them.
.
That is the goal! π€
