    • We were lucky to be in the tiny village when the cows were brought down to the valley for the Winter.

    They appeared to be without direction so it may not have been so lucky. Fortunatley all was well and no one was hurt when the cows suddenly appeared.

    One thing to listen out for is the sound of the bells aorund the animals necks.

     Very, very pretty. Richie and I are trying to narrow down locations for our first trip overseas. This looks beautiful and may make it to the itinerary

     Location of these castle is outstanding. Beautiful views over the mountains and river down. Haha, very good tip on cows marching down the village.    		mapakettle Sun Apr 23, 2006 22:55 UTC
     I appear to be following in your footsteps. Ma Kettle and I visited Fussen last summer. I recall some teenagers started jumping up and down on the bridge, and it was a tad worrisome. Their girlfriends weren't impressed. Pa
