Virtual travels 62nd day – Austria

Let’s stay around german-speaking lands today and visit Austria, while we learn some more german.
Our destination is St. Wolfgang in Salzkammergut on the shores of Wolfgangsee.
Take a walk in this lovely town by the foothills of the Schafberg.
Experience a unique ride on Austria’s steepest cogwheel railway that has been in service since 1893 and is a veteran when it comes to railway transport. 🚂

The cogwheel train covers 5,85 kilometers and travels 1.190 meters high in 45 minutes.

The journey is well worth it, since the panoramic view is amazing from the mountain top. 🏔
