For 24 days we travelled from Cape Town through four African countries and back to South Africa again in Johannesburg. Here is the first part of this journey.
Countries
2023 Travel Year
2023 has come to an end and we look back at what we did last year.
Finding a Mine Unexplored Since WWII
About a year ago we travelled to a remote valley in Norway, where we found two mines at the bottom of a steep mountain side. After doing some research we discovered that there is a path going all the way up to the top of the mountain, an impressive 715 […]
Railway Biking Along the Flekkefjord Line
As a child you were probably told not to ride your bike on the railway tracks. Ooops, here’s 34 km of just that…
Hiking Norway’s Longest Log Flume in Vennesla
A log flume stretching over 4 kilometres is well maintained and can be visited in Southern Norway. We obviously needed to check this out and brought along our hammocks and some chocolate to investigate

2020 Travel Year
2020 is coming to an end and we look back at what we have done this year.
Flørli: The Longest Wooden Stairs In The World
10 hours in the mountains, stormy weather, 32 km to hike, 4444 steps up a staircase and more than 1200 meters of elevation. The day trip up the world’s longest wooden stairs became a rather unusual hike.
Hiking to the highest point in Norway – Galdhøpiggen
This summer we decided to summit the highest mountain in Norway, namely Galdhøpiggen. The weather, however, was not going to be on our side.
Fjord Cruise to the Pulpit Rock
After having hiked to the Pulpit Rock many times it was about time to have a look at it from a different perspective, trying out a fjord cruise to Lysefjorden.
