Donauradweg: Kubin - Cozla
Kubin - Border Serbia/Romania - Cozla
Today it was very windy so I made only slow progress. After the border in Romania I had first to climb a hill, where I first ate a muesli on top to avoid dehydration until the next supermarket, because I had lost my water bottle on the way. Here I also met the next two cycling tourists.
The route continued along the banks of the Danube River, which transformed from a swampy landscape into the breathtaking Iron Gate Reservoir. As I navigated this scenic area, the mosquitoes that had plagued me earlier disappeared. However, finding a suitable spot to sleep proved difficult, as fishermen occupied most of the area and the escarpment offered limited options. Therefore, I chose to camp directly on the water's edge again, where I was treated to an enchanting display of flashing glowworms in the darkness.
Donauradweg: Machland - Wien
Machland - Stift Melk - Tulln - Wien
For the first time, a complete day almost without rain that my shoes could dry!
I started in the Machland. From there I cycled via Melk through some wine-growing areas to Wien, where I also had one rest day to explore the city.
Passo San Jorio
Langer aber gut zu fahrender Anstieg zum Passo San Jorio (Teer, Schotter).
Danach wird der Trail schmaler und bietet entlang dem Grenzgebiet von Schweiz und Italien schöne Aussichten in die umgebende Landschaft.
Everest Basecamp Trek (EBC): Tengboche - Pangboche
The trek from Tengboche to Pangboche was a delightful journey through picturesque landscapes.
Upon reaching Pangboche, we visited the ancient monastery, which is one of the oldest in the region.
