Hiking in Austria part 3

So the hike? it was to this restaurant. Which was open, according to the guide book we used, but unfortunately closed according to the rest of the world. This was sort of sad, because it was far, and it's high - 800 m above the lake - and the last 300 m are stairs. Which is a lot of stairs. And we were really excited about that beer with a view. But it's built on a fort which was constructed in 1248. And the views were TOTALLY worth it.



Obligatory head shot...
Because this area is between mountains, it is light from about 8 am to 4 pm, but only has direct sunlight from 10 to 2. The rest of the time is a looooong dawn and twilight. That's where we started, in the distance.


And Hallstadt is underneath us.
