We went a slightly different route today and did an out and return.
Immediately as we had gone through the German Austrian border at a tunnel we saw cars parked in the middle of nowhere within gorge like rocky area.
Well that tickled us enough to pull over and see what they were looking at...
Between Weit in Inkl and Ruhpolding on the Alpenstrabbe are a series of immaculately clear lakes.
There is general dump the motor in a lay by parking which is what we did but P3 And P4 which are marked up might be the best ones as more people about.
We used Weitsee which has 3 beaches all of...
Having made the decision to do some of the Alpenstraße we went for a place where we could stay 2 nights and travel on the motorbike in both directions.
Berchtesgaden is 44 KMs away so this place seemed ideal.
You are allowed to stay 48 hours and upon arrival you go into the hut of the 12...
We got done over by the Umleitung and spent too much time at hintersee so it was 1600 hrs and we hadn't done lunch on a Sunday.
We couldn't see a McDonald's burger king or kebab place open, possibly because it seems a bit posh around here. Parking the motorbike was a mare and finding the...
We passed this stunning lake 8 years ago but we're in the motorhome and it was aovely day and nowhere for us to park.
Today we were on a motorbike and it was cloudy.
If I were coming here in a motorhome I would park just prior to the actual lake on the bend coming up from Berchtesgaden and I...
The finish, or the start in our case, of the alpinestraße.
We have been here before and as non paid up members of the TFG group I didn't think we would ever come again.
The Eagles nest is here. We don't know how much it costs because it will be too much.
Motorbike parking is still pay and...
Setting off from the stell we went to Laufen where we were told about an ice cream shop by the bridge on the Austrian German border. We spotted it in this quite pleasant cobbled town and dumped the bike for a walk round. Picturesque in our opinion it seemed like a haven for cyclists who like ice...
We eyed this stell up from home owing to its confirmed price of 12 euros (leccy and showers extra) and location to Salzburg.
It is a working farm and you are just behind the cow shed and against a railway. Neither of which have worried us in the slightest. Calves are housed outside the shed and...
We got our Aire at 12 euros a night, extra for leccy, in the middle of nowhere but we are next to some cows and a railway line. Don't let that put you off.
We reckon about 15 KMs from Salzburg on a motorbike but they have a cycle route up to Laufen on a closed road then on the Austrian side of...

Having done a few journals and one "live" one and listened to the feedback that it is more preferential for most to enjoy a thread with interaction rather than page clicking, I am going to try the Thrournal, a thread and journal and better sounding than a Jouread which might make me sound a bit...
Its Throunal time, A thread and a Journal. I write a sort of blog, load it up with photos, write a few words which may or may not assist somebody in the future when planning their holiday. Previous journals are in my signature of each post.

It is that time of year when we go on holiday and I do a journal. I call it a thrournal as I start with a journal and copy it into a thread. Hopefully others will do journals in the upcoming period as well. And the journal map is very helpful for holiday planning.
