Donauradweg: Plattensee - Baja
Lake Balaton - Baja
100 km of nothing but fields and farms with many dogs dead and alive, as well as other carcasses that I'd seen or smelled from time to time. Sometimes the opposing traffic would pass a truck while I passed it → scary.
Today my planned route ended on a dirt road that stopped at some point. To get back on a road I had to push my bicycle a good piece of cross-country. Because I then came out somewhere else than planned and there are just a few roads in this area, I now had to cycle a short stretch of expressway to be able to cross the highway.
In the evening I experienced that the number of mosquitoes has increased considerably.
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): Lobuche - Gorak Shep
The trek from Lobuche to Gorak Shep was both exhilarating and demanding.
As we made our way along the rocky trail, stunning views of the Khumbu Glacier unfolded before us.
The landscape featured a mix of rugged terrain and breathtaking mountain panoramas of the surrounding peaks.
Upon reaching Gorak Shep, we had reached our goal. Unfortunately, the weather remained foggy in the following days, limiting our mountain views to only brief glimpses of the majestic peaks.
