As predicted, after yesterday's 🌧, today's 🌞 is shining. We chose a relaxing route, mostly along the lakeshore. We returned with the 🚂 - Regio ÖBB train. Afterwards, we cooled off 🏊‍♂️ in the lake before the evening🍽 began.
To round off the day, we heard echo bubbles🎺📯 from a "Fua" on the lake with the alpenglow. 😍

In gray weather we took the train to Obertraun and back relaxed along the lake, we were on the road for a good 2 hours

Departure by train towards Steeg on Lake Hallstatt. During the journey the fog cleared and revealed a dream landscape. I walked along the east bank back to Obertraun from where the train took me back to the holiday resort

🚶‍♀️The Hallstadt East Bank Trail, with so many benches inviting you to enjoy the view and rest, it's almost impossible to move 😊. At the Maislinger bakery, we were treated to a delicious roll on the terrace after closing time in the evening 🌞. We returned with the 🚂.🚶‍♀️

In Obertraun there is only one coffee shop, otherwise everything else is closed. It's a shame for a holiday region that after a hike there is nowhere to stop except the outdoor pool. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Comfortable from Bad Goisern along the east bank to Obertraun to the end point of the SalzAlpenSteig. Then with the Zille to Hallstatt 🙂 and lazy about the afternoon.

Beautiful hike along Lake Hallstatt. Parked at Steeg train station and from there the path is well signposted. We then took the boat to Halstatt (it was actually too strenuous for me and it was crowded, lots of very loud other tourists). It wasn't bad to walk the same route back because it looked different due to the different time …
