Today was the second slightly overcast day of the holiday.
We had planned to catch the cable car to the top of the mountain but with the
mountain covered in cloud we had to change our plans. We followed a tourist
nature walk up the valley to Waldbackstrub Falls. We had planned to return down
the other side of the stream to Hallstatt until we saw a walk going up the
mountain to the salt mine with a sign saying for experienced walkers only. The
walk was amazing and went up a steep staircase hugging the side of the
mountain. Nowhere near as sketchy as some of the C-Z. Got to the salt mine and
walked back into Hallstatt coming home via the Catholic Church ossuary. We
arrived home just before the heavens opened. Walked for about 6hrs total.
Gill and I are getting worried about how fit you are - and we aren't... Though our swimming and spritz drinking skills are currently top range xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting day! Love Mum.
ReplyDeleteHave to agree with Ruth - a very interesting day! Looks like you are thriving on the challenge of it all. Just catching up with the second half of your walk and the rest of the blog after an internet free week in Mallacoota. We needed some beach time.
