Rest and Relax day for us. We set out for our hiking at Untertal, a beautiful alpine path behind our ski resort in Schladming, Austria (Osterreich) that leads to the highest waterfall in the region. Read More »

The pretty Alpine resort in Schladming

We had booked a resort called The Alpine Club for a 7-day stay in Schladming, a small mining town in Styria. This was not the first choice resort that we wanted, but to book a timeshare resort, especially a popular one, it might need at least six months of advance booking (that’s why I terminated the membership). We managed to book this resort within three months of departure.

The resort overlooks a wonderful scenery, a beautiful town nestles in the alpine valley. Read More »

Biking in the Austrian Alps

A rest and relax day for us, after days of rushing for trains and tight schedules. We rented bicycles and bought groceries at the town which is about 1.5km away from the resort located on the mountain. Getting to the town was further than it seemed to be as we had to walk along a few bends on the road while descending from the mountain. We rented mountain bikes for half a day at €11 for each bike. We also bought some food to cook in our resort and the food was quite cheap. We thought we could put the bags of food on our bicycles and rode back to the resort, but it proved to be a stupid idea, when we had forgotten that our resort was high up on the mountain! We ended up exhausted ourselves and instead, apart from carrying the heavy bags of food, we had to push our bicycles up the slopes! Dog-tired!

After putting down the food in the resort, we rode around the alpine region, relaxing and getting rejuvenated in the alpine breeze.

Came across a stream. It was nature untouched! Read More »
