CURVES Vol. 18 – Germany – Bavaria/Thuringia/Saxony

Bilingual Edition (English & German)

Soulful Driving from Bavaria to Saxony

Here’s roughly how the logbook of the CURVES trip described here reads: tracing the green border of Eastern Germany from Bavaria to Saxony, passing from Free State to Free State through the Bavarian Forest and Thuringia, through the Fichtelgebirge and Erzgebirge regions, from the Isar to the Elbe.

For a long time the purpose of the next trip was unclear. Should it be billed as a journey to Germany’s borderlands? A ride through the largely unknown mountain regions of Eastern Germany? A journey from west to east or south to north? – Somehow no label really fits. That’s exactly why CURVES doesn’t spend too much time on where the journey is going, but rather on how. Discover the unknown for the first time and rediscover the well-known all over again. The beauty of this journey lies not in an action-packed plot, but above all in the details and the forward movement fueled by childlike curiosity. Enjoy the moment. With CURVES. Soulful driving.

The CURVES magazine is the special guide for car drivers, bikers and caravan fans. Stefan Bogner documented his round trip through Eastern Germany too as a fascinating melange of illustrated book and travel report. In puristic photos, Bogner’s trademark, he shows the most beautiful curves from overwhelming perspectives. Between deep green forests and picturesque cities you can almost forget where you are: in Germany.
