July 2, 2022,Patscherkofel – Tirol

I arrived in Tyrol earlier than I thought. Since I still had time until check-in, I took the train to the Patscherkofel to stretch my feet. The weather and the view were fantastically beautiful, almost cheesy 😍

It's amazing when you experience something like that live. It's indescribable and the pictures can hardly convey what you see. Simply beautiful 😍👍🏻❤️‍🔥

Already on the way to the Kofel again. Today...with many others...from the mountain station up to the summit.
Below everything was still in the fog, above there was bright sunshine and “fetzwarm”.

After yesterday's extensive archery, today we took a leisurely walk from the Patscherkofel cable car mountain station up to the summit. By the time we reached the top, the fog had almost completely disappeared. A lovely outing!

Beautiful hiking trail up there. It is suitable for almost everyone. For professionals, there is a direct hiking path with an almost 40% incline. The summit is 2248 meters high.
