Hiking 1:30:00 [1] ** 6.27 km (14:21 / km) +60m 13:42 / km

Got up early to a great view over the valley, with some misty clouds over the meadows. Cold night, around 4 degrees.

Descended down into the valley on a bit different route than we imagined because trails that were on the map weren't there in reality. Really quiet and sunny morning, lovely atmosphere.

Route
9 AM

Hiking 1:20:00 [1] ** 6.11 km (13:06 / km) +150m 11:40 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus 12

Got a ride to the parking close to Homert (656m). Hiked up from there and enjoyed the +30km views :)

Noticed the temperature slowly increased while walking down to Niedersalwey.

Route
2 PM

Hiking 1:20:00 [1] ** 5.3 km (15:06 / km) +100m 13:48 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus 12

Hitched to the Hennesee where we noticed for the first time that it got quite warm. Took a great break there, cooking soup and putting feet in the lake. After about an hour decided it was time to leave and walked to the highway exit north of Meschede.
Nice walk for the first part, but then a quite boring uphill road for the last 2k.

Trip back was much much faster; started at 15:00 and at 21:30 we were back in Deventer.

Hiking 2:00:00 [1] * 7.49 km (16:01 / km) +40m 15:36 / km
slept:6.5 shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus 12

Spending the weekend hitchhiking to and in the Sauerland (original plan was the Edersee, but with our bad luck on Friday that proved too far) with Natalia. Wore my running shoes for the whole trip, to check the difference with my hiking shoes and decide what's better for holidays in August.

First part: Hike from Raststätte Lichtendorf to a better hitchhiking spot at the end of Schwerte. Got a bit lost in the city because navigating on a 1:650.000 map isn't that easy ;)

Route
6 PM

Hiking 2:50:00 [1] ** 11.74 km (14:29 / km) +360m 12:33 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus 12

Made it to the Sorpesee, and after a small break we hiked a nice route through the forest and fields to Stockum. Camped on a small flat part on top of a hill just outside the village. Great sunset while pitching the tent :)

Still a bit chilly and cloudy today, but at least it was dry.
