October 5, 2025,Neyetalsperre und drumherum 💦💦
@Ulrike Wischmann invited me on today's hike. The drive from Dortmund took 50 minutes, but the hike was worth it. Even in the area of the Neyetalsperre, we spent a lot of time through the forest 🌳. The rain didn't start until halfway through the hike 💦💦. Since we were hiking the entire way through the forest, we were able …

Led by @Ulrike Wischmann, our hiking group YG (Young Generation) set off today with a total of nine hikers to circumnavigate the Neyetalsperre reservoir. Brilliant sunshine ☀️ and a cold wind 💨 accompanied us. At times, we trudged along snow-covered paths. The forest floor was frozen and covered with leaves 🍂🍁. It crunched so nicely underfoot, but caution was advised.

Today, after a long time, I went hiking with "Young Generation" (YG) again – at the invitation of @Ulrike 🦊. It was a beautiful hike in crisp, cold weather and sunshine. The ground was frozen; otherwise, it would have been quite a muddy mess 😉. After the hike, we stopped at the Wigger Inn – the waffles are excellent 😋. …

A lovely walk in the sunshine at the Neyetalsperre reservoir. The frosty ground was much better than mud 😃. I got home safely despite the snow flurries. 🌨️❄️ Many thanks to @Ulrike for the ride. 🌹

Today's YoungGeneration hike took nine of us (including guests) to Wipperfürth, the oldest town in the Bergisches Land region. Led by Ulrike W., we hiked around the Neyetalsperre reservoir and stopped at the Wigger restaurant, where most of us treated ourselves to Bergische waffles. The weather was cold, windy, sunny, and dry – everything was perfect for the hike. Then, …

A small and cozy loop in the shade around the Neyetalsperre. It is one of my favorite dams, beautifully green, quiet and with light gravel or forest floor instead of asphalt.
