Walk Near Winzendorf 8.12.2006

Still it is unusually warm regarding the season, 13 C. Bright sunshine, so we start for a walk from Winzendorf to Weikersdorf and further on through vineyards back to Winzendorf.

Frauen beck shortly downstream of Winzendorf

Winzendorf with the disused limestone quarry and Hohe Wand behind the Prosset gorge

Only low amounts of snow ...

 ... on Schneeberg ...

 ... (as much as in April usually)

Silver birches along Frauen beck

Sheila can´t stop bathing ...

Frauen beck and Winzendorf´s last houses

Still berries on rowan trees in Weikerdorf.

View to Winzendorf´s disused limestone quarry. The view through the Prosset gorge shows Hohe Wand; the steep escarpments to the left are indicating the place where Eicherthütte is situated.

Prossetbach is interesting for Sheila...

Fischauer Vorberge are coming closer, so there is only a glimpse left on Hohe Wand. To the right in the fields an "umbrella pine" ...

 ... here zooming in

Seeds of wild clematis ...

 ... are shining in the sunlight.
