Mountain experience close to the city - with swimming in the Traunsee as the crowning glory!

The rain from the morning kindly stopped at noon, so we could still get out. Again with the bikes to the east bank of the Traunsee, then the small round Kaltenbachwildnis with many steep rocks, a waterfall and views of the lake. Beautifully laid out paths.

Once again we are doing this little hike, which leads us to the beautiful viewpoint at the foot of the Traunstein. Although we often walk in the shade of the forest, it feels like being in the tropics. We gladly leave our bikes at the Gasthof Hoisn, to which we have cycled from Altmünster.

Today I took advantage of the fact that our hotel is right next to the Kaltenbachwildnis and went this little round before sunrise. A few hikers were already on the way. However, they are right up there on the Traunstein. So I had the gorge to myself.
