Day 84

Start:  Munich Finish:  Haimhausen Distance:  14 Total:  1267 Today I made my way north from Munich into the rolling farmlands of Bavaria. It was a relatively short walking day at 14 miles but the day was beautiful and not quite as hot as it has been with a nice north breeze.  The day got started … Continue reading »

Day 82

Start:  Ebenhausen Finish:  Munich Distance:  13 Total:  1253 I had a leisurely 13 mile stroll into Munich after a nice rest last night at the Klosterladen Schaftlarn monastery near Ebenhausen.

Day 81

Start:  Penzberg Finish:  Ebenhausen  Distance:  18 Total:  1240 Today just goes to show; when you’re wingin’ it, you never know what will happen. You just have to use your best judgement and go with it.  I’ll explain.  Last night was a good night of sleep, thanks mostly to a very efficient ceiling fan. Otherwise it … Continue reading »

Day 80

Start:  Oberau Finish:  Penzberg Distance:  19 Total:  1222 Another great day of walking in Bavaria, though the heat made it seem more like Texas.

Day 79

Start:  Mittenwald Finish:  Oberau Distance:  16 Total:  1203 Today got off to a great start but as the day went on, the frustration grew. But when it comes right down to it, any day in the Bavarian Alps is a good day so I should stop my complaining.  I had a great rest in Mittenwald … Continue reading »

Day 78

Start:  Seefeld, Austria Finish:  Mittenwald, Germany Distance:  10 Total:  1187 Today was an easy day in two respects;  short distance and downhill.  I got a great rest last night at Hanna’s Alpengruss B&B in Seefeld.

Day 77

Start:  Innsbruck  Finish:  Seefeld in Tirol Distance:  15 Total:  1177 Today’s walk was another exercise in “dodge the rain.”  After yesterday’s day off, today had me climbing back up in the mountains to the small ski village of Seefeld in Tirol.  As the clerk at the hotel desk this morning described it, it’s where “all … Continue reading »

Day 76

Start:  Innsbruck  Finish:  Innsbruck  Distance:  0 Total:  1162 Today was a day off, and I needed it. I’m a day ahead of schedule which means I pounded the pavement for the last couple of days to get ahead. It’s nice to just kick back and take a break.  I had a couple of errands I … Continue reading »
