Alone

We were excited to embark on a hiking tour of the secret trail in the nearby touring area of Ohlstadt (aka gate to the famous mountain Heimgarten but we intended to hike to a different summit.) We loaded our car with essentials like water bottles, snacks and hiking boots, and set out early in the morning to begin our adventure.

 

As we started on the trail, we quickly realized that this was not going to be an easy hike. The ground was slippery due to recent rains, and the trail was very steep. We had to rely on our instincts, sense of direction and outdoor app, as there were no guideposts to show us the way.

 

Despite the challenges, we were determined to reach the summit. We pushed ourselves to keep climbing, taking breaks to catch our breath and admire the beautiful views along the way. We saw few hikers on the trail, which added to the sense of adventure.

 

After 2.5 hours of hiking, we finally reached the summit. The view was spectacular, and we felt a sense of accomplishment and awe as we looked out over the valley below.

 

As we made our way back down the trail, we felt grateful for the experience. It had been a challenging hike, but the reward at the top had been worth it. We felt like we had discovered a secret gem in the touring area!
