"Inofficial VT meeting" Schneeberg by socrates_07

Schneeberg Travel Guide: 42 reviews and 97 photos

mel_bee, Sharrie and Audrey118 - Schneeberg

Day trip of four VT members

In June 2003 a group of climber decided to mount Lower Austria's highest mountain called Schneeberg (2075 m).
I wouldn't tell you about such an event if... well, if it wouldn't be the first (inofficial) VT-meeting at the Schneeberg. And maybe there was never a VT-meeting in such a height.
It was really an unforgettable day trip with Sharrie, Audrey118 and mel_bee. I want to say thanks to all of you. Also for the nice time we spent together in the evening in Baden bei Wien.

On foot or...

... no, maybe it's better to take the train. I am not sure about the others but I prefered to take this colorful Salamander, the new Schneebergbahn.

Last visit to Schneeberg: Jun 2003

Oliver, I love your narration/s. All your wise cracks made me laugh so hard. I wish you posted all the pictures (since that's pretty much what you all did) or there's not enough space here in VT for those pics? Pls continue making fun pages... love them!

This is a lovely description of the wonderful world of the mountains. The whole nature is a real picture, and every picture shows the wonders of the nature. Best regards from Vienna! Gabriela

Can you imagine the VT-ers on the EU VT meeting in Verona? The whole bunch of 60 people taking pictures? Funny page!
