[https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/monschau-eifel-national-park-30may2026](https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/monschau-eifel-national-park-30may2026) **SPECIAL OFFER FOR NEW USERS** * 10% New User Discount using promo code: **MEETUP10** * Valid for this trip or any other trips available on our website. **WHY GO?** Fire, water, air and earth. Almost no other region in Germany is dominated by the elements as much as the Eifel uplands. The landscape reflects the geological development of millions of years in fast motion: valleys crossed by rivers, the cones of extinct volcanoes, dry maars which have become moorland, bizarre rock formations and layers of different hill ranges. The Eifel region was settled by Celts, Romans and Franconians amd the the products of their cultures are still there to be admired: romantic towns such as **Monschau also know as the "Pearl of the Eifel"**, with half-timbered houses dating from the Middle Ages, the fascinating remains of Roman structures and imposing castles such as “Burg Eltz”. The town is also surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a great base for hiking and outdoor activities. **WHAT ARE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS?** * **Exploring Monschau "Pearl of the Eifel":** Charming and picturesque village with preserved half-timber houses in the Eifel mountains on the Rur River Valley. Monschau exudes with history, architecture & romance. * **Hiking in the Eifel Region:** This region was shaped by volcanic activity and although the last volcano erupted about 10,000 years ago, evidence of the Eifel’s turbulent past can be seen in the crater lakes, called maars, that pepper the Vulkaneifel landscape. The region also boasts some of the loveliest fairy tale towns and medieval castles in the country. * **Short Guided tour of Aachen:** Aachen is known for its history and culture, as well as its thermal springs and spa. The city was the preferred residence of Charlemagne, and was the place where **31 Holy Roman Emperors** were crowned Kings of the Germans. It's also famous for **Aachen Cathedral**, a **UNESCO World Heritage Site**, which was built in the 8th century and is considered one of the most important examples of Carolingian architecture. * **Aachen Cathedral:** Aachen Cathedral was the very first site to be granted **UNESCO World Heritage** status in Germany, and with good reason: built in around 790 to 800, the cathedral is of world importance in terms of the history of art and architecture, and is one of the great examples of church architecture. The final resting place of Charlemagne, it was also where German emperors were crowned for 600 years. * **Aachen Thermal Baths (Optional):** In Aachen, water and wellness have a long tradition. While in former times, the Romans relaxed in the therapeutic waters of the Aachen mineral springs, today, the Carolus Thermen thermal pools offer the perfect escape from everyday life. Perfect way to finish the day. **TRIP DETAILS** **Start & End Date:** Saturday, 30 May **Meeting Location & Time:** * **Option A:** Dusseldorf Hbf at 7:00 am on Saturday morning. * **Option B:** Meet outside Aachen Hbf at 8:30 am on Saturday morning. * **Note:** Exact meeting location will be provided in the WhatsApp group for this trip. **Finishing Location & Time:** * **Option A:** Dusseldorf Hbf at 10:00 pm. * **Option B:** Aachen Hbf at 8 pm. **Hiking Distance:** 15 km – Hiking in the Eifel uplands & exploring Monschau - "Pearl of the Eifel" & Aachen. **Hiking Difficulty:** Easy to Intermediate – Hiking at relaxed pace on well-marked paths, moderate/low elevation, no experience required. **What is Included ?** * Community Guide & Leader for the entire trip. **Note:** English is the main language spoken in the trip. * All public transportation from the meeting location to the finishing location (Based on the ticket option selected). * Short guided tour of Aachen city. * Short guided tour of Monschau "Pearl of the Eifel". * Guided hike. * Access to a Google photos album dedicated to this trip, where you can share all your amazing pics & videos. * Access to a WhatsApp group only for the confirmed participants. **Where is Aachen located?** * One hour by train from: Dusseldorf & Cologne. * Two hours by train from: Brussels. * Three hours by train from: Amsterdam. **WHAT IS THE PLAN ?** 🕖 **7:00 AM – Meet at Düsseldorf Hbf** Meet your guide and fellow participants at Düsseldorf Central Station before departing towards Aachen. 🚆 **7:15 AM – Train to Aachen** Enjoy a relaxed morning train journey through western Germany. 🏛️ **8:45 AM – Arrival in Aachen** Meet the rest of the group joining from other locations before continuing together towards Monschau. 🚌 **9:15 AM – Bus Journey to Monschau** Scenic ride through the beautiful Eifel region. 🏡 **10:20 AM – Arrival in Monschau & Start Hiking** We begin our scenic 14 km hike through picturesque forests, river trails, and rolling hills surrounding Monschau. 🌲 **12:30 PM – Forest & Riverside Trails** Follow the beautiful Rur River through peaceful woodland paths and rocky landscapes. 🥪 **1:30 PM – Lunch Break with Scenic Views** Relax and enjoy a break surrounded by the beautiful Eifel countryside. ⛰️ **2:15 PM – Hilltop Viewpoints over Monschau** Climb to panoramic viewpoints overlooking Monschau’s famous half-timbered houses and valley landscapes. 🏘️ **4:00 PM – Free Time in Monschau** Explore the charming old town, cafés, bakeries, and the famous “Venice View” of Monschau. 🚌 **5:00 PM – Bus Back to Aachen** Return journey through the scenic Eifel countryside. 🏰 **6:30 PM – Aachen City Walk** Discover one of Germany’s oldest cities, once home to Emperor Charlemagne and the coronation site of Holy Roman Emperors. ♨️ **8:00 PM – Optional Thermal Bath Visit** Relax and unwind at Aachen’s famous thermal baths or enjoy free time in the city center. 🚆 **9:00 PM – Train Back to Düsseldorf** Begin the return journey home after a full day of hiking, history, and beautiful scenery. 🕙 **10:00 PM – Arrival at Düsseldorf Hbf** End of the trip. **FOR FUTURE TRIP UPDATES** Please do join our WhatsApp / Telegram channel for updates about our future trips including possible early bird discounts, contests etc. 1.

English is below In kurz & authentisch & unseriöser Künstler:) inneres und dann äußeres Fotoauge trainieren und Spaß dran haben. Wahrnehmung, Fotografie, Streetfood, Walk & beste U-Bahn :) Dazwischen Berlin in urban, lebendig, divers, dreckig, wunderschön, direkt im Kiezleben, mind. 1 Späti-Getränk, viele Reize und immer wieder ein Fokus. Dein Fokus. Wirst ihn immer wieder neu, anders, vertiefend für dich kennen lernen. Zwischen Ostkreuz bis Markthalle 9 wird unser Spielplatz sein. Ich freu mich darauf :) ausführlich, seriös: Dieser Street Walk verbindet urbane Erfahrung, Wahrnehmung und Fotografie in Berlin. Wir bewegen uns bewusst abseits klassischer Touristenrouten durch Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg und die Übergänge dazwischen. Straßenleben, Menschen, Bewegung und Streetfood gehören dabei genauso dazu wie das Fotografieren selbst. Dieses Format versteht sich weniger als klassische Fototour und mehr als urbane Erfahrung zwischen Wahrnehmung, Stadtgefühl und Fotografie. Die Kamera dient dabei nicht nur zum Festhalten von Motiven, sondern als Werkzeug, um bewusster zu sehen und Momente anders wahrzunehmen. Wer Lust hat auf schnelle Touristenbilder oder reine Technikvermittlung, wird hier wahrscheinlich nicht ganz glücklich. Wer dagegen neugierig darauf ist, wie stark Wahrnehmung, Aufmerksamkeit und Atmosphäre beeinflussen, welche Bilder entstehen und welche Erinnerungen bleiben, dürfte hier genau richtig sein. Das Format richtet sich an fotointeressierte Menschen, an Menschen ausm Kiez genauso wie auch Touris, die Berlin mal anders erleben wollen. Nicht als klassische Tour, sondern näher dran. Manche kommen fürs Fotoauge, manche für die Atmosphäre, manche einfach, um die Stadt (wieder) bewusster wahrzunehmen. Ich komme aus der Wahrnehmungspsychologie mit meiner Leidenschaft für Fotografie und verbinde diesen Blick mit urbanem Erleben. Und klar, auch der Gang zum Späti darf dabei nicht fehlen. Die ersten Walks sind Teil einer Beta Phase, in der ich gemeinsame Street Experiences auch ausserhalb von Teamevents ausprobieren möchte. Damit dieses Format in dieser Form möglich bleibt und sich entwickeln kann, liegt die Spendenempfehlung ab 20€. Bring Neugier, Kamera und/oder Smartphone für deine Wahrnehmung mit. Der Rest passiert unterwegs. Ich freue mich auf euch und auf die ersten gemeinsamen Walks diesen Sommer. This street walk combines urban exploration, perception and photography in Berlin. We make a conscious effort to stay away from the usual tourist routes, exploring Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg and the areas in between. Street life, people, movement and street food are just as much a part of the experience as the photography itself. This format is less of a traditional photography tour and more of an urban experience that blends perception, a sense of the city and photography. The camera serves not only to capture subjects, but as a tool to see more consciously and perceive moments differently. Those looking for quick tourist snaps or purely technical instruction are unlikely to be entirely satisfied here. On the other hand, anyone curious about how strongly perception, attention and atmosphere influence which images are created and which memories remain is likely to be in exactly the right place here. The format is aimed at people interested in photography, at Berliners from the neighbourhood as well as those who want to experience Berlin in a different way. Not as a traditional tour, but something more intimate. Some come for the photographic eye, some for the atmosphere, and some simply to perceive the city more consciously again. I come from a background in perceptual psychology with a passion for photography, and I combine this perspective with urban experiences. The first walks are part of a beta phase, during which I’d like to try out shared street experiences outside of team events as well. To ensure this format can continue in its current form, the suggested donation is from €20. Bring along your curiosity, a camera or a smartphone to capture your experiences. The rest will happen as we go. I look forward to seeing you all and to our first walks together this summer. Pierre

***Discover the mystical sunken birch forest, the valley and its unspoilt nature while hiking along river Briese.*** **HOW DO I JOIN THIS EVENT?** Click on link below to get complete info and to sign up for this event by getting your ticket. [https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/briesetal-fairytale-forest-30may2026](https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/briesetal-fairytale-forest-30may2026) **SPECIAL OFFER FOR NEW USERS** * 10% New User Discount using promo code: **MEETUP10** * Valid for this trip or any other trips available on our website. **WHY GO?** The Briesetal is one of Brandenburgs most scenic valleys, formed by river Briese. The quiet nature preservation area is home to mischievous beavers whose dams created a sunken birch forest. The valley is still dominated by unspoilt nature, seemingly untouched by humans. It's only a 40 minute train ride north of Berlin, making it the perfect day trip getaway from the city's hustling. Following the meandering river we traverse the mystical forest, walk on wooden planks through moors and marshes and explore natural habitats and endemic wildlife. On this hike, immerse yourself into nature’s wonder! Have you ever observed the tiny details of the outdoors? Such as the intricate veins on the back of a leaf? Or the delicate edges of flowers’ petals? Or the movement of a cheeky squirrel? On this walk, you will have the chance to truly connect with the natural world around you. No experience or preparation is needed, just your curiosity. You will be guided through every step of the way. **TRIP DETAILS** **Meeting Location and Time:** * **Option A:** Meeting in Gesundbrunnen Train Station[ ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/iY2oByrR3WkwoNQJ7 "https://maps.app.goo.gl/iY2oByrR3WkwoNQJ7")at 9:30 am * **Option B:** Meeting outside Zühlsdorf Train Station at 11:00 am **Finishing Location and Time:** Borgsdorf Train Station (S-Bahn) at 5:30pm **Hiking Distance:** 13 km walking, 7 hours from start to closing, multiple break times **Hiking Difficulty:** Easy – Walking on marked paths / dirt roads, mostly flat terrain, relaxed pace **Kid Friendly:** Yes **Pet Friendly:** Yes **What is included?** * Community Leader and Guide for the entire duration. * Guided hike. * Access to Google photos album dedicated for this trip for sharing all your amazing pictures and videos from the trip. * Access to a WhatsApp group for the confirmed participants. **Note:** Please contact us immediately if you do not have WhatsApp and we can make alternate arrangements from our end to ensure you do not miss out on any communication. **FOR FUTURE TRIP UPDATES:** Please do join our WhatsApp / Telegram channel for updates about our future trips including possible early bird discounts, contests etc. 1.

Hi everyone! Hiking season is already in full swing, and with the end of May likely to be quite warm, I thought it would be a good idea to head into the forest. This time, we’ll be hiking in Teufelsbruch, near Hennigsdorf in Brandenburg, north of Berlin. We’ll meet on Sunday, May 31st, at 10:00 am at Friedrichstraße station, on the lower platform for the S1, S2, and S25 lines. From there, we’ll take the S25 towards Hennigsdorf, change to a bus, and continue to Nieder Neuendorf. The journey should take around 45 minutes, and that’s where our hike will begin. Our route will follow the banks of the Havel River until we reach Bürgerablage, a public beach area (though we won’t be swimming). From there, we’ll head into the forest and continue towards Teufelsbruch, a beautiful moorland area. We can visit a tower of the former Berlin Wall. We’ll then make our way towards Rohpfuhl, another moor, walk roughly around it, and finally return to Nieder Neuendorf. From there, we’ll take the bus back to Hennigsdorf and then the train back to Berlin. The hike is a bit longer than usual — around 16 km — and will take approximately 4 hours. Please make sure you have an ABC ticket for public transport, and remember to bring enough water, snacks, and food. We’ll make a short break along the way to eat and rest. I’ll be wearing a pink cap, so look out for a tall man in a pink cap standing near the escalators. This is a straight-friendly event, so everyone is welcome. Check out our IG: @queerhikesberlin

The trail runs mostly along the shores of Lake Bötzsee and Lake Fängersee, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding nature. Along the way, we’ll encounter old, sometimes dilapidated, mills that tell tales of bygone eras. Idyllic bathing spots invite you to take a break – and perhaps it will even be warm enough for a first dip in the lake. Since places to stop for refreshments along the way are not guaranteed, please remember to bring sufficient provisions and something to drink – better safe than sorry! **What’s Village Outdoor?** Village outdoor Events are monthly meetups for the we are village community and their friends to enjoy outdoor activities in and around Berlin. Activities include forest hikes, bike tours, swimming in lakes, sightseeing, and kayaking.

Da Einkehrmöglichkeiten unterwegs nicht garantiert sind, denkt bitte an ausreichend Proviant und etwas zu trinken – sicher ist sicher! **Was ist Village Outdoor?** Village Outdoor Events sind monatliche Treffen der we are village-Community und ihrer Freunde, um Outdoor-Aktivitäten in und um Berlin zu genießen.

Villa Jacobs is one of the more hidden and special places in Potsdam. Located close to the Jungfernsee, it is surrounded by a historic park designed by Peter Joseph Lenné, which is today part of the UNESCO World Heritage area. On this weekend, the park of Villa Jacobs opens its gates for the [Weinfest im Park der Villa Jacobs](https://www.potsdam.de/de/veranstaltung/weinfest-im-park-der-villa-jacobs-open-air). There will be wine from the Villa Jacobs vineyard, Mosel wines, small snacks, and the possibility to enjoy the park, the orchard, the linden grove and the view towards the Jungfernsee. So, let's use this opportunity and hike there from Wannsee! We'll meet in front of Bahnhof Wannsee at 10:45. From there, we will start walking along the Teltowkanal and continue towards Griebnitzsee. We will then walk through the area around Glienicke and cross the famous Glienicker Brücke, the historic bridge connecting Berlin and Potsdam. From there, we continue towards Villa Jacobs, where we should arrive around 15:00. After the hike, you will have the optional possibility to visit the Weinfest in the park of Villa Jacobs. The entrance is free. Important things to note: * Be prepared. Expect muddy grounds, a lot of sun, mosquitoes, businesses accepting cash only. * You are all responsible for yourself. None of us is mountain guide or something like that.

Update 29th May: Blossoms are in full splendor! Die Blüten stehn in voller Pracht. Exit U7 Blaschkoallee by lift, on the left-hand side there is a tiny park with elderflower bushes. Aus dem Bahnhof mit dem Fahrstuhl, dann nach links! A simple outside cook meetup to make and take home ready made elderflower syrup. In the tiny park near Blaschkoallee grow some wild elderflower bushes and we make syrup directly from the blossom. Holunderblütensirup selber kochen ist ganz einfach - ich zeige euch die Blüten und wie man daraus haltbaren Sirup herstellt :) Im Park an der Blaschkoallee wachsen einige wilde Holunderblütensträucher und wir machen Sirup direkt aus der Blüte.
