Nature encounter
./../img/photos/transalp/033_100726_capricorn.jpgAt the very beginning of our tour, we were lucky and after a bend the beast suddenly stood right before us. Yes, that's the way to start a tour!
Riss
./../img/photos/transalp/050_100727_riss.jpgThe weather sucks nearly the whole tour.
Karwendelhouse
./../img/photos/transalp/074_100728_karwendelhaus.jpgWhat a brilliant place to establishment a hiking hut!
Karwendel
./../img/photos/transalp/091_100728_karwendel.jpgFinally no more rain and therefore a brilliant view.
Schlauchkarsattel
./../img/photos/transalp/101_100728_karwendel_schlauchkarsattel.jpgClaudia is working her way up the Schlauchkarsattel.
Steinkasernalm
./../img/photos/transalp/136_100730_steinkasernalm.jpgActually a great refreshment. But it rained again. And the taste of a ice cold drink is not really that great.
Junssee
./../img/photos/transalp/163_100731_geierjoch_junssee.jpgJunssee.
High Riffler in magic light
./../img/photos/transalp/202_100731_hoherrifler.jpgJust before the blue hour, we had a clear sky and the colours began to shine magically.
Snow walker
./../img/photos/transalp/228_100801_friesenbergscharte.jpgWell, not a real glacier crossing yet.
Olperer hut
./../img/photos/transalp/242_100801_zillertaleralps_olpererhut.jpgActually, a brilliant rest site. But given the large number of day visitors, it was noisy and crowded. But the great view rewarded us and a nice "Radler" is a welcomed refreshment anyway.
Gliederschartl
./../img/photos/transalp/257_100802_gliederschartl.jpgGliederschartl
Peitlerkofel
./../img/photos/transalp/266_100804_peitlerkofel.jpgView at the Peitlerkofel
Looking up and wonder
./../img/photos/transalp/287_100804_peitlerkofel2schlueterhuette.jpgWith such a view, you can freeze just in awe.
Back to our "standard" weather.
./../img/photos/transalp/314_100805_towardsgroedner.jpgRain. Fog. That's how large parts of the tour were. And it was late July or early August.
Groedner Joch
./../img/photos/transalp/318_100806_groednerjoch.jpgThe Groedner Joch is a high mountain pass with a proper street. Therefore, it is normally really crowded. But in the pouring rain, we were almost alone. Also in the dormitory.
The Dolomites are hard work
./../img/photos/transalp/325_100806_groednerjoch2rifugiopisciadu.jpgHart. But good fun.
Dolomites at its best.
./../img/photos/transalp/334_100806_groednerjoch2rifugiopisciadu.jpgJust before the Rifugio Pisciadu
Winter is back
./../img/photos/transalp/366_100806_rifugiopisciadu2rifugioboe.jpgThe weather was good for a surprise.
Environmental sin
./../img/photos/transalp/388_100806_rifugioboe.jpgAs nice as the outlying huts are (in this case the Rifugio Boe). Ecologically, they are certainly to be classified as doubtful, since everything must be delivered by helicopter. And especially in the high season many flights are needed.
Marmots also enjoy sunbathing.
./../img/photos/transalp/426_100807_marmot.jpgAn almost handsome marmot.
Cason Di Col Rean
./../img/photos/transalp/529_100807_casondicolrean.jpgWhat a brilliant place for camping. We had to share the mountains with cows only.
Let's go...
./../img/photos/transalp/562_100808_rifugiovazzoler2passoduran.jpgApproaching Venice.
Idyllic campsite with a view.
./../img/photos/transalp/653_100811_rifugiocolvisentin.jpgMany antennas. But we had a great view back at the mountains and down into the lowlands.
Claudia was so excited. The direction is right: Prosecco country!
./../img/photos/transalp/671_100811_tarzo.jpgIf that does not increase the motivation...
Prosecco supplies
./../img/photos/transalp/685_100812_aroundbarbisanello.jpgUnfortunately it is not suitable for eating. But for drinking it is even better.
Lido Di Jesolo
./../img/photos/transalp/699_100813_lidodijesolo.jpgAnd how could it be otherwise in early August .... It rained!
Finish
./../img/photos/transalp/729_100814_venezia_piazzasanmarco.jpgShortly after we reached the Piazza San Marco the rain stopped.
Piazza San Marco
./../img/photos/transalp/738_100814_venezia.jpgShortly afterwards it was raining dogs and cats again.
Sight seeing in Venice
./../img/photos/transalp/744_100814_venezia.jpgWe went on a sightseeing trip.
Rialto Bridge
./../img/photos/transalp/752_100814_venezia_rialtobride.jpgA tourist motif.
Pure boredom
./../img/photos/transalp/782_100815_venezia.jpgThe next morning we had a blue sky.
Canal Grande in Venice. What a city!
./../img/photos/transalp/825_100815_venezia_canalgrande.jpgA grand finale under blue sky.
Lagoon
./../img/photos/transalp/841_100815_lagunavenezia.jpgWith that view it is immediately obvious why Venice is called a lagoon city.
