Weekend Getaways

**After Work Pilgrims: Walk with intention.** Berlin is demanding, and the day was long. And somewhere between finishing work and the night, there's a moment where we just need to breathe. That's what After Work Pilgrims is for. We walk together through the city – through parks in the middle of all the concrete – with intention. Just a few kilometres on foot: with silence, a short reflection, and good company. It's more than a walk. But it doesn't feel like it. Duration: approx\. 2 hours \| Distance: 4–7 km \| Free No experience needed. Comfortable shoes recommended. Come as you are. *** 📅 Wed, June 10, 6:00 PM 📍 Volkspark Friedrichshain (Meeting point: Märchenbrunnen, [https://maps.app.goo.gl/2wjNfWTYjCEnWS3c8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/2wjNfWTYjCEnWS3c8)) 📩 You’re welcome to join our [WhatsApp group](https://www.alexander-steinfeldt.de/hikes/berlin-pilgrims/) for updates and connection before the hike. 🧭 Pilgrim Guide Alex (Mail alexander.steinfeldt@outlook.com or WhatsApp +49 157 57652601)

Hi everyone. We'll meet and play a relaxed game of ultimate in Volkspark Rehberge if the weather cooperates. Our games focus on having great team play, where the teams work together to advance the disk down the field. It's more important to work well together as a team than have a few star players get a point with lucky shots. For this reason, players of all skill levels (especially those who have never played) are welcome to join Bring plenty of water, shoes you can run in and comfortable clothing that can get a bit dirty. Although we're an established group, newcomers are always welcome. After the game we try to spend some time together and have fun. Finding us: We meet in this big grassy area, it's a short bike ride from the subway stop Rehberge on the U6 or Amrumer Strasse on the U9. It can be a bit tricky to find the first time, so we've got a few methods to help out (don't trust the meetup map pin, it often shows some point in the park, not the exact spot where we are) 1.

**Berlin can be a tough nut to crack.** Sometimes you have your "one person" and you’re stuck in a bubble; other times, you’re the new kid on the block looking for your crew. This night is designed to break those bubbles and bridge the gap. "Bringing a friend? **Amazing.** Coming solo? **Also great.** \> Whether you’re rolling with your crew or flying solo\, you’re in the right place\. Our mission is to help you meet like-minded people and turn 'strangers' into 'Berlin besties.' **Friendly reminder**. Change ur attendance status if you cannot attend!

This trip costs 289€ including - * Travel with ICE (to and from) * 4D/3N Accommodation * Rodelbahn tickets * Entry to select attractions as per itinerary * Guided Hikes Check memories from our past trips here - https://tripstotales.com/memories Some weekends are meant to disconnect — this is one of them. The Black Forest is where nature slows everything down. Think dense forests, quiet lakes, flowing waterfalls, and roads that lead you deeper into calm, scenic landscapes. Over these 4 days, the experience is built around enjoying this rhythm — from peaceful walks through forest trails to discovering hidden waterfalls and soaking in views that feel untouched and timeless. There’s also a fun side to it — like the Rodelbahn ride, adding a bit of thrill to the otherwise slow-paced escape. And in between, you’ll explore charming towns like Freiburg and Staufen, where cobbled streets and local cafés bring a different kind of experience. This trip is not about rushing from one place to another. It’s about taking a step back, breathing in fresh air, and enjoying a long weekend that feels calm, scenic, and easy. If you’re looking for a nature-filled getaway with a mix of relaxation, light adventure, and beautiful landscapes, this is exactly that. Why travel with TripstoTales? At TripstoTales, we focus on curated small-group trips that are thoughtfully designed from start to finish. We handle the planning, routes, and logistics so that the experience feels smooth and stress-free. Our trips are built for people who want more than just visiting places. With a smaller group size, everything feels more personal, more relaxed, and far from the typical rushed group travel experience. For this trip, that means a well-paced long weekend where you can fully enjoy the Black Forest — without worrying about planning, transport, or missing out on the best spots. If you’re looking for an easy, scenic escape with great company and everything taken care of, TripstoTales is the right way to do it.

Let's do another **two day hike** through the Harz mountains! **Important info - please read it now:** * This is a non-commercial event. You are responsible by yourself to research and book your accommodation in the area. You are bearing the complete risk (bad weather, etc). * After signing up for this event, please immediately research accommodation and book it. When you have booked accommodation, please send me a private message containing the place where you are staying. If I do not get a message within 36 hours of signing up, I need to presume that you are not coming. I will then need to remove you from the participants to make room for other interested people. * We will stay at the village **Schierke.** At the moment, there are still a number of accomodation options, but accomodation is limited. * For transportation, having a Deutschlandticket is certainly the most recommendable and most economical option. * **This is an advanced hike. You should wear proper hiking shoes and have a certain surefootedness. On day 1, we will walk between 15 and 20 km and have to manage an elevation gain of 820 meters. On day 2, we will walk between 21 and 24 km and have to manage an elevation gain of 750 meters. Expect that you need to climb over fallen trees and rocks. At some points, you might need to use your hands to stabilize your steps.** **Itinerary** **Day 1: Saturday, June, 13th** * 07:05 Departure with HBX train from Berlin Hauptbahnhof station (stops also at Ostbahnhof, Alexanderplatz, Friedrichstraße, Hauptbahnhof, Zoo, Wannsee, Potsdam) * 10:17 Arrival at Wernigerode * 10:40 Historic steam train from Wernigerode to Steinerne Renne * 10:58 Start of our hike. We will see the Renneklippen, the Steinerne Renne waterfall, the Waldgasthaus Steinerne Renne, the Ottofels, the Leistenklippe and the Eulenstieg on that day. Optionally, at the end of our hike, if we did not already reach our personal Elendstal (valley of misery), we can walk through the geographical one. * We will arrive at Schierke between 16:00 and 18:00. **Day 2: Sunday, June, 14th** * 9:30 Start of our hike at Schierke. We will walk up the Eckerlochstieg to the peak of the Brocken. At 1141 meters, this is the highest elevation in northern Germany. From there, we will descend north-wards. We will come by the small but many Ilse waterfalls. * After around 21 km, we will reach Ilsenburg, where we can refresh and have dinner. * Depending on our speed or mood, we will take the train back to Berlin at 18:30, 19:30 or 20:30. The train ride back to Berlin takes roughly 3.5 hours. **Accomodation** I cannot give any recommendations on good places to stay. Yet, to facilitate your research, here are a couple of possible places in Schierke: * [Pension zum Hexenstieg](https://www.booking.com/Share-6Tj1KTs) * [Pension Schmidt](https://www.booking.com/Share-seX3l0) * [Gasthaus Brockenhexe](https://www.booking.com/Share-soFsVwa) * [Hotel Brockenscheideck](https://www.booking.com/Share-9nn0BE) There are certainly also more options which are not listed on Booking.com. Feel free to use the comments to search for fellow hikers which might want to share apartments with you. However do not wait too long with booking, as options might go away.

Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease. This walk is a simple reset. We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment. No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening. If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk. ✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):** * A short arrival and orientation * A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation) * One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress * Optional reflection in pairs or small groups * A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life 🚶**Who this is for:** * Professionals, creatives, and people in transition. * People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance. * Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical. * Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation. 🔔 **Practical notes:** * Duration: 60-90 minutes * Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing * No prior experience needed * Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused 🧭 **Facilitator:** My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction. 🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?** Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense. Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world. The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it. 🌿 **Possible effects:** A calmer nervous system. Clearer attention. A felt sense of being more present in your body. Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions. A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city. **Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
