Our happy crew (from right: Hobel, Volker, Schorsch, myself) shortly before take-off at the
Schlegeisspeicher in Austria.
This year, we challenged the famous
Berliner Höhenweg along the
Alpenhauptkamm (main ridge of the Alps between Italy and Austria). We only did three legs of the 8-9 day round trip, which is described in full length
here (German only, sorry!).
