Rest of the hike up to Vesterasfjellet lookout. Nice easy walk & well worth it. Someone enjoyed walking with goats
Start of short hike up to Vesterasfjellet. We had to go by the 'waterfall steps' again. Much better with sunshine
Not really best way to finish an all day hike: slippery roots galore on a very steep slope! Still an epic day though!
Pratiwi negotiating part of the, "It's not dangerous, honest!" section. To be fair, it's not as bad as it looks
Almost at Andalsnes? Erm, not yet! The hike is longer than you'd think! Run out of superlatives to describe the view!
End of 'tricky' stuff? Was a trail register to sign off here, but plenty of scope to fall off cliffs still ahead!
A look back at where we came from... and on to where we're going. Still a lot of hiking left in the day!
Another look to the Rauma Valley side. We had to put up with variations on this view practically all day. Tough!
Approaching one of the peaks on Romsdalseggen ridge. Forgot to take a shot of the sign & don't recall which one. Doh!
This is the view North-east-ish from Romsdalseggen ridge. Pretty, but nothing compared to the Rauma valley side.
Ridge was maybe 1m wide here. So mid-stride look straight down through fisheye lens. Just sharing the experience!
Hiking along rather slim ridge with the aid of chains. I enjoyed this but someone else said it was scary. Pfft
Looking along Romsdalseggen ridge. Dots of other hikers maybe just visible on the edge. This is where we're heading.
On the Romsdalseggen ridge. All smiles now the mist has cleared
Arriving on the ridge, we were greeted with mist rolling up from the valley. So much for that view I thought...
First part of the Romsdalseggen hike: climbing up to the ridge. Lots of snow at the top but still arrived sweaty!
Short(ish) hike up the hill (Milthaugen I think) behind campsite. Bit misty and wet at the top! Still fun though
Short hike up to Roche des vieux chevaux (great views down to the site we're staying at) & Lac de Lispach.
Short walk to Irrel 'waterfalls'. Pretty little river in the woods but hardly a waterfall. Rapids maybe? Still nice.
Red Screes hike. Views almost to the coast, down to Ambleside & lake Windermere. Think we were bit lucky to stay dry!
Hiking on Loughrigg Fell. Challenging light for pics. Flat as a pancake... unlike the hike. Was blowing a gale too!
Today's activity: a 15km walk in constant rain. Welcome to England! I admit it had it's moments. More pics to come
Pratiwi was dreaming of splashing about in a mountain stream all day. Brrr, icy! I showed her how to relax instead
Heading back to the start. These views are even better when you don't have to keep turning round to look at them!
The walk proper starts as we turn to follow the Riu de Juclar. Many waterfalls on this section. Simply stunning!
We have a day to kill in Andorra so... a hike! This is the flat-ish bottom section of the route along Vall d'Incles.
Little stroll to Belvedere du Diable this morning. Nice view, but really rather humid. #WePreferHighMountains
8km & 900m vertical later: Col d'Ayous! Arrived rather sweaty, but yes that is snow on the ground. Time to head back.
Today's slightly overcast hike: beautiful Plateau de Benou. Kindof flat here (it's a plateau!) but check the views.
An easy walk today to Lac de Soum. Not sure what the waving of baguette pieces is about. Maybe Pratiwi was hungry?
Back to Aulus-les-Bains. Great trail past mountain huts, mossy rocks & crystal clear stream with it's own mini falls.
Hiking up to Cascade d'Ars. Passing other small streams then snow (sometimes deep) above 800m or so. Awesome walk!
There is a trail here... honest!
Had to cover quite a distance over 'baby head' rocks. Not the easiest terrain. Be very careful not to roll an ankle!
Today's hike: Sommet des Fourcats. Just a walk to the top of the nearest big hill. Great day & pretty nice views.
Discovering the coastal path between Manarola & Corniglia closed, we took the higher option. Steep, but nice views
Started off on a hike from Manarola to Corniglia. Didn't get far before realising the 'low road' was closed. Doh!
Walking on the ridge around Valcava Pass. Great views to Lake Como & rest of Lombardy. Almost caught dinner too
A walk around Tarasp, Avrona & Lai Nair (sort of mountain peat bog place - hence the boards). Beautiful day for it
Hike to Feldberg (highest peak in the Black Forest) & Feldsee (little lake). Very nice, if a bit chilly to start.
