Mount Floyen is up there somewhere! The plan for today was to hike up and down rather than take the funicular. The trailhead is five minutes away from my home away from home. I could see the low cloud and fog from my window and I wondered whether I should wait. I passed on waiting and said what the heck, just go! So I went! This was the view walking toward the trailhead.
part way up the fog began to lift
it was looking soooo pretty
one of the many switchbacks
every time there was an opening, I snapped a shot
admiring the view from part way up
oh WOW
I zoomed in to see my room!

I made it!
There is so much to see up here along with some hikes to take. I just meandered around a bit. This is the restaurant.
a cafe
I picked a different cafe that had this view from the outside patio.
On the way down as I neared the end, along came the funicular.
I worked up an appetite for a local IPA.

Just think of all you would have missed if you chickened out on this . But you never chicken out.
ReplyDeleteI wanted no regrets so have to at least make an attempt!
DeleteThe view is spectacular! But I was huffing & puffing just looking at your first photo & the walk up to the trailhead 🤪. ❤️Norma
ReplyDeleteNo huffing and puffing when you are starting at sea level!
DeleteLooks like a nice hike, the views are fabulous! The beer is a nice treat! Take care, Happy Sunday! Have a great week ahead.
ReplyDeleteThe trail up through the trees was filled with birds songs and it would have been a great place to only go for birding! I would never have made it to the top if all I did was watch the birds and listen to them.
DeleteThe best decision. I love the wafting cloud views.
