#MountainLovers

Temperature rose to 30 °C before midday on day eight of our crossing of the Alps and although the hike was not really challenging, we sweated a lot. After a long way down from Wangenitzseehütte to Iselsberg, we took the bus to Lienz, had a stroll though the city, boarded an ÖBB CityShuttle and finally reached our final destination for this day: Sillian near the Austrian-Italian border.

Duration: 6 hours (including breaks)
Length: 14.5 km
Elevation: 1120 m to 2620 m
Ascent/Descent: 150 m ↑ and 1550 m ↓

Sunrise at Wangenitzseehütte. The far mountains appear in a warm, orange glow.I stand on a small, wooden suspension bridge and spread my arms wide to signal joy. Behind me the Wangenitzsee can be seen. In the top left the Wangenitzseehütte rises above the lake.A hiking woman stops on a grassy path amidst rocky slope to embrace the stunning views. A valleay can be see seen far back.Panoramic shot of a mountain ridge: The left is covered with dark green trees while the right is rather stonegrey.
A woman with two sick kids (fever and coughing) had to sleep in our dorm at Lienzer Hütte, because she couldn't descent further, so our sleep wasn't too restorative. Nevertheless we continued our adventure "crossing of the Alps" on day seven. After a diverting hike to the Wangenitzseehütte (2508 m), the highest situated Alpine hut in the Schober group, we attempted the climb to the top of Petzeck (3283 m) to finally get our first three-thousand-metre mountain done. However, rather sooner than later our concentration was used up, so with a heavy heart we turned around at roughly 2900 m, descended back down to the hut and took a swim in the cold lake.

Duration: 2 hours and 45 minutes to Wangenitzseehütte and another 3 hours and 10 minutes up and down the Petzeck (both including breaks)
Length: 6 km to Wangenitzseehütte + 4 km up and down the Petzeck
Elevation: 1970 m to 2925 m
Ascent/Descent: 1000 m ↑ and 450 m ↓

Green valley in the morning near Lienzer Hütte. The sun rises and only the bottom part of mountain sides are located in the shadows.A very small lake in mountaineous grass landscape. The view to the far mountains is misted.View from Unter Seescharte to Wangenitzseehütte and two clear water lakes in between.My girlfriend crosses a tilted rock field.
Longest stage on day six of our crossing of the Alps. We hiked from Glorer Hütte (2651 m) via Peischlachtörl (2490 m), Gernot-Röhr-Biwak (2926 m), Elberfelder Hütte (2346 m) and Gößnitzscharte (2737 m) to Lienzer Hütte (1977 m) into the heart of the Schober group. As we knew beforehand that this day would be rather long, the discussion about climbing the Böses Weibl (3121 m) at the Gernot-Röhr-Biwak was settled quickly. We skipped it and the second chance to climb our first three-thousand-metre mountain went out the window. In hindsight this was not the wrong decision, because we then would have missed out on dinner at the Lienzer Hütte. We enjoyed watching different marmots along the way and even captured a decent photo of one.

Duration: 9 hours and 45 minutes (including various breaks)
Length: 15.6 km
Elevation: 1970 m to 2926 m
Ascent/Descent: 1050 m ↑ and 1725 m ↓

Early in the morning at the Glorer Hütte: Dense fog patches prevent the view into the valley.Sun rises beyond the mountain ridge and turns the landscape reddish around the Glorer Hütte.A lone hiking path in the a green-grey mountain landscape. The early morning mist starts to fade. The sky is clear blue.I cross a rocky ridge.
La photo animalière c'est surtout des rencontres.
Et ce brocard en est une extraordinaire.
Il est resté un long moment la nuit tombante à 10, 15m de moi. A m'observer, curieux et peu farouche, alors que j'étais debout sans filet ni réel camouflage (à la base venu voir un blaireau qui n'est jamais sorti), à lui chuchoter de faire attention à la chasse qui approche, entre 2 photos au 1/20ème de seconde.
Alors qu'il en soit ressorti quelques belles photos, c'est un plus qui immortalise cette rencontre unique.
