Hiking, rock climbing and more

The last couple of weeks have been amazing!! On the 26th, last Saturday my host family and I and a couple of other people hiked Katrin the local home mountain!! Its about 4 to 5k straight up!! We stopped at the Gast haus near the top, had lunch and then continued to the top!! Photos of going up and also summiting!!!

Heading to the top!

It just keeps going up!

Half way there!! Maybe

There are gondolas somewhere in this photo. The easy way up!

The easy way down!! Paragliding

To get to the gast haus it took about 2 and a half hours!! And then about another 30/45 minutes to the Gipfel-summit where a large metal cross stands!
