As a traveler and hiker, I am naturally heavily influenced by the English language, and since it sounds cooler, the headline is in English today. Yes.

Sammy will be on his own from today onwards. He is taking a different path, so our ways are separating. I really enjoyed the time with him as a companion on the road. See you around.

However, for today's stage, I'm in good company again. Both Johanna and Christoph, as well as Cornelia, arrived at the same accommodation the night before. Like most people, they also want to hike the Peaks of the Balkans. Johanna and Christoph are from Hamburg. They are both super nice and likable. They are actually traveling with a van.

Cornelia is from Denmark. The 27-year-old veterinarian is well equipped and sleeps in her tent. Even the heavy rain and thunderstorms don't deter her. Pretty tough. I immediately get along with her as well. There are few people with whom I can have such detailed conversations about outdoor equipment. She works at an outdoor shop in Copenhagen.

After breakfast, we start together as a newly formed group of four.

Pretty cloudy or changeable weather. Sweating, freezing, putting on jackets and taking them off.

As always, steep climbs.

Along the way, Christoph unpacks his drone. With the beautiful surroundings, you naturally get magnificent shots.

Great atmosphere to be on the road with the group. And this despite the excessively muddy and worn-out paths. Actually cow paths. We weren't on the right path anymore. At some point, it starts raining too. That's exactly what was missing on such paths.

During a cozy break, a whole gang of young cows suddenly approaches. Close together, driven by their curiosity or maybe hunger, they get closer and closer to our picnic table. A funny scenario.

In Milishevc, Johanna and Christoph go to a guesthouse. Cornelia and I had originally planned to camp, but then we spontaneously find an empty hut. This time without cow dung, but with a beautiful wooden balcony and an priceless view of the meadows and mountains. A truly perfect place for an overnight stay.
