Pitztal / Tirol / Austria

Off we went to a totally new location. For a long weekend we went into the Pitztal in Tirol, Austria. This is a very nice valley and we have never been there before - so we went to explore it in detail.

The day before we had climbed up a short but very steep canyon called "Rosengartenschlucht" in Imst.

That was also quite an adventure which we thoroughly enjoyed. Just look at Claudia and me:
