Austria July 2019 - Totes Gebirge and Hollengebirge

Another hut to hut trip in Austria with my pal Ernest.
After a north-south traverse of the middle Totes Gebirge on the first two days in dry weather via Puhringerhutte we had a soggy walk up to and down from the Loserhutte and decided to dodge the rest of the heavy rain and mist at the weekend by travelling round the mountains by train from Bad Aussee to Ebensee via Bad Ischl.Monday morning bought the promised fine warm weather and we then completed the rest of the planned route with an east-west crossing of the Hollengebirge from the top of the Feuergokel cable car to Weissenbach am Attersee staying at Riederhutte and Hockleckenhaus along the way.

Lechquellen Alps July 2017

Hurray! The Picasa photo upload manager seems to be having a new lease of life,which means that I can create and share Google Albums much quicker again ,without using all my data allowance while trying to overcome problems with Firefox/Chrome crashing after only loading a few pics at a time.

Another hut to hut trip with my pal Ernie.This time to the Lechquellen Alps,Vorarlberg, in the far west of Austria. Travelled there by train from the north of England to London,then Eurostar to Brussels,Thalys to Cologne and Nightjet sleeper to Innsbruck. Here's a link to the Lechquellen Alps photo album
