Jaggontz Sat tel 1680m, with the Wildenstein Waterfall coming down. This one's for you Bruce, climb every mountain, thinking of you.
A very narrow single Lane road up, up and round and round to nowhere, sat nav bogus directions. Down again, very slowly, to the car park with cafe and toilet block, what a relief.
Fabulous day for the 'short' 20 min walk to the waterfall. Steep, almost vertical at times, stone and gravel path to the top to view the waterfall.
On the return down, after we 'knocked the bastard off' to Hillary, we soft shoe shuffled, side stepped and part slip our way back down whewww, we made it both ways! Pat on the back to us.....
Bessie certainly got her own back after her massive mountain drive yesterday haha.
It was so warm and sunny, we took advantage of the isolation and did a bit of washing, had a shower and washed hair, but as we haven't had the heating on, haven't had the hot water on, so I imagined myself under the mountain waterfall, very fresh and crisp but refreshing.
Tony went over to the immaculate toilet block just as a bus load of school kids arrived, luckily tye went straight up for the climb to the waterfall, otherwise they would have got a look at something they didn't expect, Tony in a state of undress and dripping wet haha.
While checking the engine fluid levels, Tony spoke to the bus driver about our choice of mountain road tomorrow to Lake Bled, one is 17% gradient the 10% but very winding, where confirmed the latter, which we had discussed with Les on messenger last night. So feel a lot better about the route now. Also looked up Bumble blog to see where the wild camped and got a couple more free options .
We got our chairs out and had our first sun bathe, gave Bessie a 40 ltrs water fill with fresh mountain water. So all ready for her mountain drive tomorrow into Slovinia, our 10 pass in Austria is up, so it's farewell, adieu we're leaving you goodbye eeeeeeee, goodbye eee, Austria has been amazing for scenery, cleanliness and helpful, friendly people.
We decided to go back down to Gallizien for the night and the late afternoon sun was still warm, so out came the chairs for the last of the warmth of this our last day.
Tony cracked a joke and I told him not to leave his day job......but of course he already has haha.
Chilli mince and veg pasta to night with a refreshing tasty Austrian beer.
