Wednesday we saw Liechtenstein Gorge, one of the deepest and longest in the Alps. It was made accessible in the 19th Century by the Prince of Liechtenstein who had tortuous walkways & tunnels constructed, hovering over a fast-flowing river. You walk up the gorge on these paths as far as a large waterfall. It’s spectacular and the pictures don’t really do it justice.
Sunday: sunny, warm & good visibility. The ideal day for a trip to the top of Schafberg on the mountain railway. Schafberg is the highest mountain bordering the lake at 1,783 metres (5,850 ft). From the top, an amazing 360º panorama of mountains & lakes spreads out as far as the eye can see. The railway has been running since 1893, still using some of the original steam engines (and staff!), and also services a hotel and café at the summit.
