About This Web Site

Following a slight cardiac scare in early 2004 I started hiking again: and with my love of Germany decided to see if I could manage to hike up into the Bavarian mountains. So far so good! Now well into 2006 I am surprised at what I have achieved, and have hopes for many more summits. My hiking interest in Germany has rapidly become "4 Seasons", and three winter trips early in 2006 have seen progress with snowshoe hiking, an area I am very determined to develop in the future! All of my hiking trips are arranged in "trip order" on this site, as this web log, (blog), is primarily my record of each trip. But there is also a summit list on the Index page for anyone who wants those.

I thank those visitors who have E Mailed me about this web site.

My other main, (and very long term), hobby is German Steam Railway Locomotives: So please visit my germansteam.co.uk web site if that subject interests you as well. Bryan Benn, Kent , England, July 2006
