Hohe Wand 25.11.2024
Dense fog over Winzendorf, but the prospect of sunshine higher up. I drive up Hohe Wand to the disused Almfrieden inn, now private property.
On the drive already some holes in the clouds, as here shortly before Stollhof.
First view over the mist at the uppermost hairpin bend od the Hohe Wand road.
... and this is the view to Northeast.
Near the Almfrieden.

I walk along the escarpment till the Skywalk ...
... and further on, crossing the whole Hohe Wand plateau to the Waldeggerhaus.
Panorama as seen from the Waldeggerhaus, far left is Schneeberg. Click here or into the picture for a larger display.
Clear view to the Ötscher which is about 61 km distant.

Back to Skywalk. The mist has dissolved, flex wings now on their way.
