  • Hartmut’s Bench

    On 30th December 2016 I went for a hike to Tegernsee. The weather was beautiful, I planed to go for one of the favorite short tracks, have a walk of about 1 hour and enjoy a Weißbeer on the Neureuth Terrace. When I arrived there, it was crowded like hell, so I decided to walk…

  • Kramerplateau Addition

    I went again to the Kramerplateau trail and realized that we missed the one or the other bench in the last post. First of all, there was a new bench build. A dedication to Erika with some wisdom of Winnie the Pooh.   Then I also realized that there were a couple of bird houses which were…

  • Walkers Benches

    Walkers Benches

    I did more research about benches in the NET. I was successfull again. Slowly I am getting concerned, that our “Benchmark” is merely a little mark on a big paper as I could find “Walkers Benches”, which is  another website dedicated to benches around the world. http://www.walkersbenches.com

  • Breckenridge dedications

    As hoped and expected Annette provided two other benches from Colorado 😉 The first one is from Breckenridge, which is an old gold mining city within the ski arena of  Vail. I guess todays gold is the snow. The bench is dedicated to Michael Thomas Davidson. The second bench is also a dedication bench, dedicated to Ben Clark. A quite…

  • Colorado, Vail – Korst Family

    We crossed the Atlantic. Seems my talk in the office about benches was fruitful. Annette, one of my colleagues is currently in Colorado, Vail on vacation. And she donated a dedication bench to this blog.  I am still curious about the view from that bench. I could not yet find anything about the Korst Family…

  • Helmut 2008

    A walk in the park on a sunny Sunday afternoon. We were taking the tour from St. Emmerams Mill to Schwabing crossing the northern part of the English Garden in Munich. Beautiful weather, sunshine, 28 C. When we wanted to enjoy a bit the park life and rest on a bench we picked one accidently. Well, as…

  • Alpe de Siusi X – Yoshiatsu Nagatani

    Finally, the last bench of the Alpe di Siusi bench series. It is another bench dedicated to a person. Also this one is pretty close to the cable car station in Compatsch on Alpe di Siusi. A nice wooden bench with a traditional wooden crox behind. The thing which made me really curious was the name…

  • Alpe de Siusi IX – Kathy Reno

    It is not unusual that names are officially graved in benches. Very often it is that someone donates or “buys” a bench and his name is then mentioned on the bench. Or someone else dedicates a bench for you. At the end of one of our hikes on Alpe di Siusi, not far away from the…
