Austria - The Final Day

Saturday 6th
Our final full day in Austria.  We decided to visit the Kimmlerweiss waterfalls.  The fifth largest drop of waterfalls in the world.  Apparently it was over an hours “often difficult” climb to reach the top, we decided that we were not prepared to do “often difficult” so we drove to a couple of spots where we could see parts of the waterfall.  It was certainly spectacular but I wouldn’t have thought it was that long.  We then set off to have a ride up a gondola to the top of an alp.  It was a great ride and a very long way up.  The views were amazing and it was so hot.  We had our picnic lunch, wandered around enjoying the views then caught the downward ride back to the car.   A wonderful way to end our trip to a beautiful country.
