Simply walking out the front door without time pressure and appointments, this had been Walter Wärthl's dream for many years. After 47 years of work, he got the opportunity to "timely" exit the professional life through partial retirement. This gave him the freedom to finally realize this long-cherished dream, and so in the winter of 2013, he came up with the idea that Paris would be an attractive destination. Distance approximately 1,000 km.
He studied maps and planned his rough route. On 11.08.2014, he started in front of his front door in Velden and after 32 days, 1,084 km, many experiences, encounters but also many doubts and hardships, he reached his goal, the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The world-famous monument became his personal triumph filled with many emotions.
