Hej! Auf diesem Spaziergang unterhalten wir uns auf schwedisch. Vi möts vid hållplatsen Glienicker Lake och går längs stranden mot Pfaueninsel. På vägen kommer vi förbi Krughorn och Moorlake och njuter av de fantastiska utsikter mot Sacrow Slott och Heilandskirche. Vi tar färjan och går runt ön ett varv. Tillbaka på fastlandet kan vi spontant bestämma att luncha ihop på restaurangen Wirtshaus zur Pfaueninsel. Kolla vädret i förväg och klä dig efter det. Wir treffen uns an der Bushaltestelle Glienicker Lake und laufen am Ufer entlang bis zur Pfaueninsel, die wir einmal umrunden. Unterwegs genießen wir die schönen Ausblicke. Wenn wir wollen können wir nach dem Spaziergang noch im Wirtshaus zur Pfaueninsel essen gehen.

This hike follows sandy woodland trails and quiet paths along the Havel River, gradually climbing through the forest to reach some of Berlin’s best vantage points. We’ll climb the steps of the historic Grunewaldturm before stopping for a relaxed break at Kaisergarten am Grunewaldturm, a traditional beer garden overlooking the river. From there, we continue through the forest and up to the summit of Drachenberg, where wide views open out across the Grunewald and the distant Berlin skyline. It’s a chance to leave the busy streets behind, enjoy some fresh forest air, and spend the day exploring one of Berlin’s most beautiful landscapes with a group of curious explorers. **WHAT ARE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS?** **Grunewald:** Berlin’s largest forest, filled with sandy trails, glacial hills, and quiet lakes. A favourite escape for those looking for nature just outside the city. **Havel River:** One of the major rivers of the Berlin-Brandenburg region. Here the river widens into large lakes and peaceful bays surrounded by forest. **Grunewaldturm:** Built in 1899, this historic observation tower rises above the forest overlooking the Havel. Climb the steps to enjoy wide views over the lakes, woodland, and the distant Berlin skyline. **Kaisergarten am Grunewaldturm:** A classic German beer garden beside the tower. With views across the river, it’s the perfect place for a relaxed break, a drink, or a snack. **Drachenberg:** One of Berlin’s best viewpoints. From the top you’ll see a sweeping panorama across the Grunewald, Teufelsberg, and the Berlin skyline. We’ll aim to reach the summit in the early evening, with the chance of catching sunset — a memorable way to finish the hike. **WHAT IS THE PLAN?** * **10:00 AM-Option A: Meeting in Alexanderplatz S Bahn Station:** Meet at Alexanderplatz station and take the S Bahn to Nikolassee Station. * **11:30 AM-Option B: Meeting in Nikolassee S Bahn Station**: Arrive at Nikolassee station and kick-off with brief introductions before starting our hike into Grunewald Forest * **12:30 PM-Scenic Hike Along the Havel:** Continue hiking the hilly forest trails along the Havel, taking breaks as desired at any of the numerous benches with beautiful lake views. * **03:30 PM-Lunch Break at Grunewaldturm Biergarten:** Arrive at the Kaisergarten am Grunewaldturm Biergarten for a well-deserved lunch and climb the Grunewaldturm * **05:00 PM-Hike Towards Teufelsberg & Drachenberg:** Continue hiking through the peaceful Grunewald Forest and over Teufelsberg towards Drachenberg * **07:15 PM-Sunset Views from Drachenberg:** Reach the top of Drachenberg and take a break to soak up the panoramic views and sunset **WHAT IS INCLUDED?** * Community leader & guide for the entire duration * Access to Google photos album dedicated for this trip for sharing all your amazing pics & videos from the trip. * Access to a WhatsApp group for confirmed participants. **OPTIONAL ADD-ONS:** * Entry to the Grunewaldturm viewing platform is optional.

Together we wander through a UNESCO heritage forest sitting on top of dramatic chalk cliffs that plunge into the emerald waters of the Baltic Sea. The cherry on top of our nature adventure is our visit to one of the most **Disney-like castles in Germany – Schloss Schwerin** and our stay in the charming Hanseatic harbour town of Rostock. **WHAT IS THE DETAILED PLAN?** **Day 1:** We catch a train to the picturesque castle of Schwerin. Schwerin castle sits on an island surrounded by lakes & forests, which all contributes to give it that stunning appearance. We meet our local guide outside the train station and then proceed getting enthralled by his stories about this magical castle town with the tour finishing right by the castle. Post the guided tour, we grab a bite / drink and admire the Castle gardens before heading to Rostock, where we would be staying in for the next 2 nights. **Day 2:** Post breakfast, we are off to briefly explore the Hanseatic town of Rostock. We then take a train to the seaside town of Sassnitz to discover Rügen island and hike in UNESCO listed national park Jasmund along stunning white chalk cliffs that reach up to 100 meters while surrounded by beech forests. We hike almost the entire Jasmund National park, finishing back at Sassnitz and grabbing a bite / drink before heading back to Rostock. **Day 3:** Post breakfast & checkout, we take a mix of train & bus to get to the beautiful seaside resort town of Nienhagen (hike starting point), where we would be hiking between Nienhagen beach & Warnemunde beach, one of Germany’s most beautiful beaches. We’ll say hello to an iconic lighthouse and walk 500m into the Baltic sea on a pier in Warnemunde where we grab a bite / drink before heading back to Rostock and then back home.

Join Losing Weight in Columbus for a late morning walk at the Scioto Park! We'll meet up by the climbing wall at 12:30 and go for a moderately paced walk. We will aim to go for an hour, but can cut it shorter if needed. This will be a casual, but active walk where we chat with each other, discuss goals, and have some friendly banter along the way!

This trail is a meandering path through the woods. There will be some overlooks and a couple stops at the creek as well as time along a waterway. It will not be a fast paced hike. There is some elevation change and uneven terrain. I will be using poles just to be safe! Will aim to get in about three miles. Optional lunch after if there is an interest.
