Up there on the summit, all alone at dawn – just enough cell signal to finally call home. Matthias Klima spent 6 weeks off the grid—on one of the toughest, wildest, and at the same time least known long-distance hiking trails in the world: the Rim of Africa. In this episode of Schlafsackgeflüster, the deuter podcast for great mountain stories, he shares how to prepare food for 40 days, why perseverance is more important than muscle strength, and what remains in the end.
