You actually have a great view of the Tennengebirge from everywhere in this part of the Tauern cycle path.
The Tennengebirge is a mountain group in the Northern Limestone Alps in the Austrian state of Salzburg.

Today was a national holiday in Austria: Corpus Christi. In all sorts of small towns, processions were taking place. Nice to see.

We also came across a little town named after @Frits! 🏡😁
