In Schönering, we started our tour up Mount Gis, Linz's local mountain. We conquered the summit, were rewarded with the most delicious curd strudel, and ended our tour with a meal at my son and our future daughter-in-law's house in Schönering.

I was accompanied today by:
My loved ones 😘🥰

Nice tour today from home, via the Ottensheim power station and then on route "D" from Ottensheim. Hard work, the Koglerauerspitz.
Stop at the Rodlbudl in Ottensheim. Highly recommended.
All in all, a very nice but also challenging tour, peppered with a few tough climbs and descents 😉

Unfortunately also very slippery in places
