Steps Together: ACOTEQ Takes Part in the Team Walk Tour in Aachen

At ACOTEQ GmbH, we believe that a strong team is built not only through the work we do together, but also through the moments we share outside the office. That is why we were glad to participate in the Team Walk Tour in Aachen, an outdoor event that brought together colleagues, friends and families for a day of walking, fresh air and good company. For us, it was a natural opportunity to step away from our daily routines and invest time in something equally important: the people behind our work.

The event started at the iconic Tivoli Stadium in Aachen, which served as both the starting point and the finish line for the day. From there, participants set off on an 8 to 10 km walking route through the surrounding landscape, designed to be enjoyed at a relaxed pace by participants of all fitness levels. Along the route, motivation stations and a refreshment stop kept the energy up, while the friendly atmosphere made it easy to connect with one another in a way that a regular workday just sometimes allows.

Crossing the finish line back at the stadium and receiving the finisher medal was a small but satisfying reward for the effort — and a good excuse to celebrate. Events like this remind us that wellbeing and human connection are not extras — they are part of what makes a workplace genuinely worth showing up to.

Encouraging our team to stay active and maintain a healthy balance between professional and personal life is something we consider important at ACOTEQ and participating in initiatives like the Team Walk Tour is one of the ways we put that commitment into practice. We are proud of the team that showed up, walked together and made the most of the day, and we look forward to many more shared experiences ahead.
