Austrian diary. Around the lake Hallstattsee.
 travel_fanatSeptember 3rd, 9:54Well, no, I understand, Italy, France ... well, but that each year travel to Austria and find something new for yourself? Am I the only one? Our little there in the off season, summer mainly promoted by the lakes of Carinthia, in the winter - of course, skiing. And here I am in February kaak something contrived to get to Salzburg. No, skis were too, can not do without them - but skiing in its purest form is not something you need a cultural program - is necessary. Not necessarily the city. What am I doing?
Yes, I am suggesting that you can ride to Austria every year, and twice, in winter and summer, and open a lot of untrodden places.And so all my life, I'm just sure of it. Here, the ideal price-performance ratio. Normally, a country in which there is no sea, almost immediately on the order dampens my interest in her. Any country that is not only Austria. I did not count, but I think there's enough space on the lakes at least our Black Sea. In general, Austria in the summer in my understanding of this lakeside paradise. Incredibly nice look from above. Gorgeous weather, mountains veiled morning haze clouds, endless hiking and bike trails, a bit heavy for me, but definitely excellent cuisine with an emphasis on meat, great beer in good company, at last. And what a photographer's paradise! So many stories that will last for hundreds of Cartier-Bessonov, with none repeated. But it's all in the summer, when crowds of Europeans massively come out of their offices, forgetting about the courses and exchange.
And in the spring? In the spring, the weather, there are different and need to be ready for anything. And while in Kiev in May, the air temperature is over a good plus 27 Celsius, a weather Europe slipped a piece of shit. Arctic cold in Poland (+15), which is not prevented enjoy the night Wawel Castle in Krakow, fogs in the Alps, which only made a half-hearted attempt to spoil the mood, and a full range of weather surprises in the Italian Tuscany. It had everything - from fog, rain and chill to the perfect spring warmth and cutting the eye of the sun. But the people - so small as you can imagine.
I'll be back to Austria. The whole joke is that the country is self-sufficient in terms of tourism and travel. In the sense that a decent quality of guest-houses with balconies and views of the mountains, wine and tasty rustic meals at local restaurants will not let melancholy no chance to penetrate your consciousness. Well, I just spoil the mood so bad weather is difficult, for me it simply does not exist.
I'm in Austria is not the first time, like already said. Guide me in principle not necessary, although some little book is a well-known publisher. The route I came up with himself, using a paper map and your knowledge, besides trying not to repeat myself and do not call in the places where I have been before.
Spring - a wonderful time everywhere, and even more so in Austria.

Lake. Yes, the very crystal clear waters with emerald water on a sunny day on which anyone who knows even a little interested in this country. Not only popular with our visitors beautiful Carinthia, not less pleasant Salzburg, also in this region is the most beautiful village of the state and almost all of Europe - Hallstatt (Hallstatt Hallstatt or how anyone would want). Below is our itinerary, which included several lakes and a couple of cities. In general, on this trip, as usual, the focus was on rural life and the beauty of Mother Nature.

Something which pictures to make sure possible, but I completely your photographic hunger is not quenched. This share of traveling, we do not choose the weather, and the only change yourself for it.
Traditionally, no hotel reservation. I know that this time of year (May) with hotels, guest-house and apartment simply no problems. Prices sparing (50 euros for two), and I want to choose what I like, rather than something that offers some notorious Booking, in which the choice-that is no more. As a result, stopped at guest-house in the small town of Bad Goisern on Lake Hallstaten Zee. The hostess, something vaguely reminiscent of German Chancellor Angela Merkel has shown hospitality room. My attention was caught by a mechanical miracle machine that issues a beer for only 1 euro per bottle. Three minutes on that to understand the mechanics of the device and happiness in the form of a cold beer fell from the mouth of the iron monster.
Traditional Austrian house in which we lived a little, appeared, but only in the evenings ...

Facade in Austria is not just a facade, it's not the most refined ... almost all the houses are twisted around plants or trees grow (directly on the walls) ...

Lake Hallstatt and the village of the same name are the most beautiful in these parts. And so it is. I immediately found the famous church, emblazoned on the cover of my guide and widely disseminated by millions of postcards, magnets and plates. Today, it is not as beautiful as the weather is sunny and in the mode light, but it still makes a good impression. This is a very tourist town, even in the off-season tourist vacuum there, but the seasonal crowds either. People only as much as needed to feel comfortable. The map shows that there is a cable car in Austria ski lifts and cable cars much more than the subway stations throughout Ukraine. Found without difficulty, all consisted of a couple of beginners tourists shy to seek out cost recovery. And that is where the search - 22 euros, the price of non-acidic, can be a half-year in the Kiev subway ride, I have no choice - I love the mountains and the views from the heights.

That same church with the guide ... I loved her winter look on the local postcards.

That same cable car to the summit ...

A birds really mind-blowing, the nod once again to get down the mountain mist and starting to rain a little, moved into the restaurant. By the way, I recommend, great wine list, tables, rugs for Merzliakov and most important - here is the best view of the lake. Besides us a soul, that is, no one at all.Below - the lake and the leisurely tourist life, and here on all sides by mountains surrounding on all sides silver-lead mirror lake. The church, the one that all the cards, it looks quite different. The town itself is more like Hallshtatt models, which are often exhibited in museums to showcase the beauty of planning and development.

Back two options - to go back to the cable car or walk down to the lake, the route is approximately two hours. Guess which option I chose? You guessed it - go on foot. The path around the mountain, that came to a small waterfall. Even lower stumble upon a small church, is a non-tourist and hidden from prying eyes. Doi near where they live those who are engaged in farming Church. Here are the common people were able to choose their own housing. This species does not even have the coolest house in the center of town. Bravo! I have a few minutes of standing with his mouth open, looking at the lake and did not notice any heavy fog or that the program we have today is another lake, and most importantly - the dinner. Reinforces the impression falling stream of water right in the center of the city almost on our heads. This is a picturesque waterfall which emphasizes the fabulousness of this cozy town.
Tanya as usual photographs (rarely) I ...

Falls right in the center of the city - a good idea the first settlers came here - to build a house near the waterfall, the water was much, but they have a good drainage system - all in the end goes into the lake.

It's time for dinner. Tourist Haalshtat we reserve rich tourists from Western Europe, while they themselves are going to dinner at another location. Where to?
On this and a lot more - in tomorrow's issue of the Austrian journal.
But if you have enough money, then I recommend here - by all accounts, though, and coach, a good seafood restaurant ...

Anyone who has read, looked through - THANK YOU.
More Austria.
