It was by chance that some of our friends happened to plan a break by Weissensee this weekend too! Maiko and I go along way back since high school in Tokyo but as she lives near Vienna with her husband, we don’t get to see each other often. And so we thought it would be a great idea to meet up today! How about some hiking? Of course we’d be up for it! Meeting point was on the boat that takes us around Weissensee where we disembark at the end point. We were very excited to see each other! Once we got off, the 15km hike began.
Halfway during the hike, during which we had walked for a good two hours, we dropped by Fischer Alm for some lunch. We had been chatting and talking so much that we hadn’t noticed how much we’d been walking! Lunch for us was dumpling soup (he had the large one) followed by Kaiserscmarren, bits of pancakes sprinkled with icing sugar. Then we continued with the final half of the hike; after 45 minutes or so, we reached Hermagorer Bodenalm where the descent down the mountain began till we reached the lake to catch our boat back. A total of four hours plus lunch break! What a fun and fulfilling day meeting up with friends. And feeling fit again too! We’d definitely do a similar adventure with them and will be making plans. Looking forward to that!
