Innsbruck, Austria


The following morning after our hike to Höllentalklamm gorge, we wanted to go see Zugspitze. This was our second attempt since the first time we had poor weather. This time is was foggy and junky weather as well and we did not want to pay over 50euro each to see clouds. So instead, we ventured into Austria for a last minute Innsbruck trip. We saw it was about an hour away from Gramisch so we bought an Austrian vignette for 8.70€ (this one is good for 10 days) and headed South. 


We found city parking and headed into the city for lunch. When we walked into altstadt (old city) we were greeted by a brass band playing on the balcony, the Goldenes Dachl (the Golden Roof) which was built in 1500 to celebrate Maximillian and his bride. 










I was not prepared for our trip to Innsbruck and wish I did some research before our trip here. I would of loved to go to the Hungerburg funicular or travel the Nordpark Cable Railways. O well, maybe next time ;)

Here are some beautiful pics of our drive home.
