• Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance this week and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

Hi Thorsten,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

I am one of the OB Ambassadors in Europe. Your nearest Local Experts are @NotGumby and @XC70_OVERLANDER

Look around here in the forums and you will find plenty of good information around overlanding. For beginners the Beginner Q&A is helpful and all the other Q&As also.

There are quite some members in Europe. We did plenty of meetups this year and there are more to come. Have a look at the Rally Points, there you can filter by OB regions, Germany belongs to MidEurope Region. And if you have fun organizing an event yourself, go for it, we are always happy about it.

Also check out the Europe subforums. There you will find a lot about overlanding in Europe and some active members from Europe. You can also have a look at the OB Map, we have already collected many POIs for Europe and there are more and more.

If you have any questions or need help, please get in touch, our Local Experts as mentioned above and I'm happy to help.

I will sent you also the link to join our local WA group, run by members for members.

Enjoy your trip to Sardegna,

Bjoern

I picked this up a few months ago and have been busy modding ever since. Too many to list here but I can do a build thread if anyone would be interested.
Im new to overlanding but not new to the offroad scene. I started out young loving to play in the mud then gradually moved into trails then to the rock crawling scene. I’ve had mini monster trucks and full blown tube chassis Rock bouncers and everything in between. I currently live in NM and I have this and a RZR.

Hello All; I am entirely new to Overlanding and look forward to learning all I can. I recently purchased a newer truck, a 2023 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X, and I absolutely love it. I would like to kit this truck out for overlanding and would appreciate suggestions and ideas. I would also welcome meeting up with other people in my area (central Alabama) and learning from them. I attached a pic of my truck. Are there any other people on the forum who have a 2022-2025 Nissan Frontier setup for overlanding? I would love to get some ideas. Thanks.
