Today it rained - and rained some more, and then just kept raining !! It didn't stop us though. We travelled by car to Leutascher Geisterklamm to view Leutasch Gorge.

Leutasch Gorge 1465m
That's Nick & Addison on the bridge
Waterfall Trail - Mittenwald
With rain coats on we walked along the metal walkways (they hung suspended over the gorge and you could see through them) and then down the mountain. The walk was quite long (over 3000m) and the mountain was extremely steep in some places. The aim of the walk was to view the gorge (stunning) and to see the waterfall at the bottom (impressive). At the bottom the kids had hot chocolate and cake (still raining!) while the gentlemen had a beer (Mittenwalder Radler). 

Einstieg Wasserfallweg - Mittenwald
Like a shandy - beer and lemonade.

We had started our walk in Austria, had our afternoon tea in Germany and returned back to Austria. The kids were amazed we can walk from one country to another without a passport or border control. The only way we knew we had changed countries was a striped post.

Although it was a long walk and very wet - it was stunning and we had a fun time.
