To kick off the new year, a good friend came to visit us for a few days starting January 1st. We were blessed with fantastic weather, so we hit the trails for some refreshing hikes in the stunning Rax and Hohe Wand mountains in Lower Austria.
Here’s a selection of photos capturing the crisp winter landscapes and breathtaking views from two of our hikes:


















Wow, you managed to capture some stunning views, and while climbing a mountain, it looks so beautiful. The mountains look incredibly tall, with some snow still lingering, and the clouds are so clear.
Thanks!

Thank you!
Wow. I did not expect that there are such interesting mountains so relatively close to Vienna. I have to look at it. Very nice pictures!
Yes, especially Rax has quite a few nice hikes to offer.
Good to know. Sometimes I visit Austria and your post turns out to be very useful for planning another trip :)
What a stylish way to start new year। Amazing landscapes

wow - what a trip - and again, photos of a Steinbock - I remember you had some years ago. I just wish I could do this again, alas, I am not capable anymore for hikes. With other words, I am way past my 'best before' date.
