Austria

Austria is simply stunning. One of the best countries that we visited on our van trip. We visited Graz, Hohe tauern national park, Werfen ice cave, Hallstatt and Salzburg.



Hallstatt, with a population of just 1150 and evidence of human settlement 4500 years ago, this is a stunning lake side village.




This is the Beinhaus in Hallstatt, the last skull was added in 1995.





Our new chess set that we got in Greece.


Salzburg.


The formal gardens of Salzburg.

Werfen at the worlds largest accessible ice cave. It really was massive and we only walked 1km into the first part of the cave!


Almost at the cave...

Hohe tauern national park. Our luck as soon as we entered the park the clouds rolled in. 5min after this pic we couldn't see a thing.





Graz. Such a great place.

On the way down 260 steps of castle hill.


A very windy view of Graz.


The medieval clock tower.


The Kunsthaus Graz, weird looking building.
