At the start of May 2024 we travelled to the Achensee by train and bus for some hiking days. Sadly, my girlfriend fell ill on the day after arrival, so the hiking part of this holiday was cut massively.
Instead I had some time to enjoy the steam train ride from Jenbach to the lake.

The Achensee as seen from our balcony in the setting sun. Patches of orange light are reflected on the surface of the water. Snow-sprinkled mountains rise on the sides of the lake.

Green trees cover the mountain's slope beneath the hiking path. The water of the lake appears dark blue. Snow-sprinkled mountains rise on the other side of the lake.

A waterfall emerges between the rocks high above our heads.. The water eventually flows down into the Achensee.

Around Easter 2024 I visited my parents and took them and my sister on a hike.

The Menzenschwander Geißenpfad trail led us past several old Black Forest farms. We enjoyed the views and fantastic perspectives opened up onto the surrounding valleys and the village. Even the highest peak of the Black Forest (Feldberg) and its tower could be seen. The sound of goat bells accompanied us on our way.

Duration: 3.5 hours (including smaller pauses)
Length: 11 km
Elevation: 880 m to 1055 m
Ascent/Descent: 315 m ↑ and 315 m ↓

After our crossing of the Alps ended in September 2023 we didn't went home immediately, but had some relaxing days off in the Ötztal.
On the final day we had some energy left for one last hike this holiday. Starting point was in Obergurgl at the end of the valley via Langtalereckhütte, Langtal, Piccard bridge and Ramolweg back to Obergurgl. The next day we headed back to Germany in the way we started our adventure approximately two weeks before: by bus and train.

Duration: 7 hours (including lunch break and three smaller pauses)
Length: 18 km
Elevation: 1892 m to 2688 m
Ascent/Descent: 1111 m ↑ and 1111 m ↓

All things must come to an end and so did our crossing of the Alps in 2023 with stage 11. On our way from Talschlusshütte to Dreizinnenhütte we didn't talk much as we soaked it all in and were both lost in thought about the past few days. Once we were getting closer to the Tre Cime di Lavaredo it got more and more crowded and we were a bit overwhelmed. After a pause at the hut - much longer than we anticipated, because it was so full - we left for the last part and the final destination. We crossed the imaginary finish line at Rifugio Auronzo and were received by our beloved ones.

It's been our greatest adventure yet and we absorbed so many unforgettable impressions.
Thank you for taking part in this little throwback over the last few weeks!

Everything is quiet at Talschlusshütte at 8 o'clock in the morning and the sun is still behind the mountains.

I walk upon a gravel path. There is a wooded section in front me. Far rising Dolomites on the left. A small and upper part of the mountains glows in the sunlight.

The sun slowly sun emerges from behind the stark outline of the Pale Mountains. A stream of water flows below.

The Dreizinnenhütte sits in a vast and open are in front of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. People can be seen around the hut. The sky is clear blue.

Remember my post about day seven of our crossing of the Alps? Turns out, I probably became infected on Lienzer Hütte. My body temperature rose during the evening and I had to leave dinner early to change to an empty basement room at Sillianer Hütte. The night was hellish with little sleep. I felt a bit better the next morning, but still pretty weak. Fortunately, nearly all we had to do on stage 10 was descending to Italy during another warm day until we reached the Talschlusshütte in Fischlein valley at the edge of the Sexten Dolomites and I finally could recover a bit. Some wistfulness settled in this evening as the penultimate day of this amazing journey came to an end.

Duration: 5 hours and 45 minutes (including various breaks)
Length: 13 km
Elevation: 1330 m to 2447 m
Ascent/Descent: 230 m ↑ and 1150 m ↓

In the morning at Sillianer Hütte: The Sexten Dolomites are illuminated by the rising sun. The Valley still lies in the shadows.

I stand in the middle of a forest path and smile - a bit forced - into the camera. The Sexten Dolomites rise in the back.

A pristine alpine lake in the Sierra Nevada reflects a central yellow-streaked boulder and rugged granite terrain under a cobalt blue sky. The composition emphasizes symmetry, elemental forms, and meditative stillness—echoing a minimalist landscape style.

Here is a friendly reminder to condition your #hiking boots and shoes for the #autumn and #winter #hikes

Ninth day of our crossing of the Alps and simultaneously the start of a little extension to the classical Berchtesgaden-Lienz route: From Sillian the only way was up till we reached Sillianer Hütte, which is situated exactly at the Austrian-Italian border. At the beginning we followed a forestry track. After we worked through roughly two thirds of this day's march we had lunch at Leckfeldalm where we were belted by many cows. There was also a change in scenery at Leckfeldalm. We left the woods behind us and continued on gravel through an area more open and rocky than before. We had some leisure time at the hut before I felt something happening in my body...but more on that next week when it's time for another ThrowbackThursday post.
