Wilder Kaiser Mountain Range

We took this pic in March when we were hiking to the Hollenauer Kreuz.The view is simply amazing

Ellmauer Tor

Going is a little charming town located at the foot of the Wilde Kaiser mountain range and surrounded by the Kitzbuehler Alps. It is a popular travelling spot for Germans due its proximity to the border. Going is also famous for one of its hotels and restaurants, the Stanglwirt. Celebrities from all over the world flock to this place.. I remember visting it in the early 70's when it wasn't famous yet..
Anyhow, Going has many wonderful hiking trails and mountain climbing can be done as well. For those who like to swim, two lakes are close by : The Hintersteiner See and the Schwarzsee. I will always be in love with this little town..

Oetzalm

A nice place of rest on the hike to the Hollenauer Kreuz.
