AT THE FOOT OF THE GREAT WILDER KAISER

by scottishvisitor - last update: Aug 2, 2007

The Little Village of Ellmau

After a long school term the summer break finally arrived. I don't always plan where to go so Ellmau was neither planned nor researched. I'm so glad I ended up here in this Tyrolian Gem. We came to relax but there was so much to see and discover - the two books I had brought with me remained unread, the weather was perfect - one thing I had done before coming here was check the weather forcast - it wasn't good news. Packed for all eventualities we arrived in Austria, one of the waiters in a restaurant here said "Welcome to Africa" yes it was hot but my new motto is always take the weather with you :) too bad I couldn't bring it back home with me.

 It has been many years-like 1980's but I vaguely remember a brief stop here once. I love the area, and you surely presented it well. The church information is great.

 Superb Ellmau page! The horse and carriage ride and the chapels certainly sound interesting to explore. The mountain including the Panorama Restuarant and the sunrise certainly look amazing! ~ho & pang

 That's a beautiful church in Ellmau --- I always love visiting churches in Europe, and sitting on a mountain meadow sounds sooooo relaxing....Norman :)
