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 beautiful DecSeptember day in Gschlöß valley
Today was a really cold day: Just above freezing in the morning in the "valley" (if you still want to consider Matrei in Osttirol at just under 1000 metres above sea level to be in the valley), and a bit below freezing at the start of my hiking point (some further 500 metres higher up). Fortunately, it was sunny for the first two to three hours, which made my hike into Gschlöß valley a delight. Continue reading A beautiful DecSeptember day in Gschlöß valley

From winter with love
Winter is not only coming, it has already arrived in the mountains around Matrei in Osttirol this night: After a rainy day yesterday, the rain apparently changed to snow overnight. Nonetheless, I went on two shorter hikes in Virgen valley today. Continue reading From winter with love

Water of a different kind
Originally, I had planned a lazy day today, as it was supposed to rain all day. However, the rain stopped already around noon. So, there was time for a short excursion, namely to Liechtensteinklamm. Continue reading Water of a different kind

Awed in Phong Nha
As I have heard a lot of good things about Phong Nha, I had high expectations — and even those were surpassed. The landscape alone is very beautiful, and the enormous caves in the area are just stunning. Continue reading Awed in Phong Nha
