blomberg + heiglkopf + zwiesel

what a nice day in the bavarian alps 😄

blomberg (1248m) + heiglkopf (1218m) + zwieselberg (1348m) were the 3 quite easy to reach summits on our agenda today. was there a small help from the gods, the universe or the like? yes, we used the blomberg chair lift from the bad tölz side to reach the 1st summit blomberg and walked at the mountain crests about 4 hours after that. the only difficult section was a steep way after the blomberghaus cottage (1203m) to zwiesel (also zwieselberg) mountain with elevation gain (höhenmeter) of about 130 - 150 metres before the quite plain section under the summit cross of zwiesel (1348m) appeared.

of course, you cannot know, but we tried to hike to the zwiesel / zwieselberg from the wackersberg / lehen side in late march during the last winter season. well, there was so much snow and best of all wives slid into the steinbach creek and many other issues happened, so we turned back after 1,5h walk 😁

all in one 😍

the blomberg mountain is famous for its toboggan runs (rodelbahn) in winter and in summer and especially at night. do not worry, of course they've artificial illumination so you do not have to pray for a moonlight 🌛

bavaria (bayern) is beautiful => enjoy few pictures:

steinbach creek (zwieselberg 1348m)

what a strange winter walk at the steinbach creek today. we have had a beautiful weather, sun, warm 9 degrees celsius, but not the right shoes for my wife 😍 ... after 1 hour and completely wet feet we had to turn back and we will probably visit the small zwiesel mountain = zwieselberg (1348m) in summer time, when the snow disappears ... it was a nice day in the bavarian alps, anyway 😄

trijunction DE / AT / CZ

we are quite often in the trijunction DE / AT / CZ, you know? we usually sleep in the hotel alte innbrücke (old river inn bridge) in neuhaus am inn because it is close to our final destination, cheap and they have a very good wlan connection so that i can work mobile while my wife is busy with other stuff. even if the breakfast could be much better, i feel there meanwhile so familiar that this time i even went for breakfast in my pyjama, only completed by a sweater 😄

DE / AT / CZ = germany / austria / czech republic

of course, it is for us always more and more difficult to discover new things in the area .... this time we were lucky and could visit the vornbach castle which was the former vornbach abbey till 1803, the year where bavaria confiscated clerical property. how did we find it? easy, last time i could recognize a nice old building at the flyer of the inn river cruises, so my plan was ready to become reality today.

 mobile work paradox => the car stands still and i work on my laptop in the hotel room 😄. there are not many mobile workers out there, are they?

inn river used to be an important transport vein for many hundred years, today it is not. they'e have built 6 - 8 power plants in its last section before it enters the danube river in nearby passau.
