the weather was quite bad, so instead of hiking i've spend a lot of time visiting different castles in northern south tirol (brixen area). my craziest experience? they've locked me in the castle trostburg for half an hour or more ... hahaha, i've been there much earlier before they've opened for tourists and didn't see anyone at the gate and thus just walked in ... later it was closed, so i just talked to the castle ghosts and waited for the first tourist excursion of the day to come out 😂
