On my last “true” vacation day, I just had to go out into nature again. I chose the Logar Valley, which is considered to be one of the most beautiful glacial valleys in the country. Given my small sample size, I cannot confirm that with certainty – but I can say that it is very picturesque indeed. Continue reading A Log(ar)ical vacation end

Off to Bohinj!
I spent the last two days in an accommodation near Lake Bohinj. Since this region was so beautiful, I limited myself to exploring the immediate surroundings. Why seek far afield when waterfall, lake and gorge are all within walking distance? Continue reading Off to Bohinj!

From waterdrip to waterfall
Today was dedicated to the Kozjak river. My first accommodation in Slovenia is on the way up to the mountain where the river originates. So, I was able to hike to a waterfall both in the upper reaches of the river, and a little further down. Continue reading From waterdrip to waterfall

All good lakes do come in threes
I spent the last day of my vacation in Lower Austria: After staying overnight in Göstling an der Ybbs, I went on a hike in the area of Lunz am See, visiting three lakes in total. Continue reading All good lakes do come in threes

Books always make a room better
Slowly, it is time to think about returning home. So, I drove East today. My first stop was at Admont Abbey to visit the impressive Admont Abbey Library. In the afternoon, I went hiking in Waterhole Gorge. Continue reading Books always make a room better

Krimml Waterfalls
I already wanted to visit the Krimml Waterfalls during my trip through Austria last year. However, one and a half hours of driving each way was too much for me. So, I planned my route this year to include a visit. Therefore, on my way from Tyrol to Salzburg, I stopped over in Krimml today for a closer look at the (very impressive) waterfalls. Continue reading Krimml Waterfalls

Exploring a lake on foot
As the weather was supposed to be changeable today, I decided to stay down below, and explored Achen Lake – but also from a hiking trail: On the Western side of the lake, there is a narrow footpath hugging the mountain, with gorgeous views of the lake below.

Sticking to in Ötz valley
Originally, I had looked up hikes in (almost) all of Western Tyrol for my stay in Ötz valley. However, I liked the view from my accommation (see title image) too much. So, I decided to stick to Ötz valley itself. In the end, I spent three days hiking there: around Piburg Lake, at Stuibenfall, and at Hochoetz. Continue reading Sticking to in Ötz valley

Plan B in Bürs and Brand
Due to the bad weather, my initially planned hike to two summits near Bludenz was not really possible. Besides, I was not sure whether I had a third day with 1000 metres elevation gain in me. So, I tried to squeeze in two rather short hikes along the Alvier creek near Bürs: Bürs canyon and Kessel waterfall. Continue reading Plan B in Bürs and Brand

A trip down memory lane gorge
After two days of exploring tourist destinations that I was not yet familiar with, it was time again for a trip down memory lane: with a visit to <span>Tscheppaschlucht gorge. Continue reading A trip down memory lane gorge
