Hohe Wand 27.2.2014
High fog over Winzendorf. Today, I have only short time, so I drive up Hohe Wand to see a bit of the sunshine.

I pound some of the favourite views.

Near Kohlröserlhaus


Grassland near the road junktion

Near the Almfrieden inn.


Near the Postl inn. Here, Völlerin - route ends.

Hazel nuts in bloom.

View from the Skywalk to Southwest ...

... and to Northeast.

Friendly walking the grass, I bump into ...

Hans Jürgen Pietsch. United husbands making their wives work in the morning while walking in the sunshine ... (As an excuse, I worked afterwards on that day, from 2 to 7 p.m.)

I squire Hans Jürgen for a short leg heading for the Almfrieden inn, where he has parked his car.


Hans-Jürgen first discovered this herd of capricorns standing close to the escarpment.

About 8-10 animals, predominantly younger ones.


A pup is also among them.


"What do you do here?"

"Should I go and look for news inside the forest?"

After me coming a bit too close, the capricorns stroll down a bit down the escarpment, ...

... like us strolling through the living room. They don´t seem to have much stress.

A last detour to the Waldeggerhaus, ...

... to admire Schneeberg.
