Regensburg - Passau

In the morning, we had to buy new spare tubes before we could visit the Walhalla and then continue on a perfect cycle path to Passau. Unfortunately, it often runs along main roads or the motorway. As it rained quite heavily, we barely took any breaks except at the Walhalla.

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.

Diese Etappe führt von Trafoi aus auf einer Passstraße mit unzähligen Spitzkehren hinauf auf das 1000 Meter höher gelegene Stilfser Joch.

Von dort geht es über den Umbrailpass weiter auf den Bocchetta di Forcola, dem mit 2768m, höchsten Punkt unserer Tour. Die Abfahrt vom Bocchetta di Pendolo mündet von einem wunderschönen, sich in das Tal schlängelnden, Trail in einen Schotterabhang mit recht grobem Schotter, bis man letztendlich in Bormiò ankommt.

Das Etappenziel Santa Caterina Valfurva erreichten wir am Spätnachmittag und somit hatten wir die am Vortag verloren gegangene Zeit wieder aufgeholt.

The trek from Namche Bazar to Tengboche offered breathtaking views of the towering mountains that surrounded us.
In the evening, we watched a prayer ceremony of Buddhist monks at Tengboche Monastery, where we took a moment to appreciate its serene beauty and the spiritual atmosphere that enveloped the area.
