Forest thaw
... was overcast, as predicted by the weather forecast. It certainly wasn't cold and the final few kilometers along the lake to the south of Achensee turned into a gentle stroll. A welcome beer in a village cafe and ice cream for the weak-willed. Back to the hotel after a 7-8 miles' walk and a welcome afternoon snooze.

It's snow time
... hotels and boarding houses. There is evidence of ski activity on the snowy hillsides, but the mountains are shrouded in heavy cloud and the skiing season hasn't started yet. Sunday is clearly a genuine day of rest in Austria. The snow continued to fall throughout the day. We managed to find the start to the Panoramaweg which took us up into the trees on the eastern side of the valley and offered great views onto the western hillside.
