Summer Vacation 2022 - Part 7

Bike Tour To Toplitz See

Saturday - August 13th 2022

Since the weather was really nice today, we decided to rent some e-bikes and take a bike tour to Lake Toplitz. After breakfast we hit the road and tried to get used to e-bikes. It was our first time to use e-bikes and they were a lot of fun and easy to handle. Along the was we stopped in the village of Bad Aussee, where we jsut strolled around and checked out an antiques market in the park. As a fun fact Bad Aussee is the geographic centre of Austria.

Once we left Bad Aussee behind we reached Lake Grundlsee and from there we still had a couple of kilometres to go until we arrived at Lake Toplitz. There we wanted to get something to eat and luckily the only restaurant by the lake even offered some vegan options. While I got the potatoe soup Claudia ordered the lentil stew. Then we cycled back to Bad Aussee where we got ice cream before returning to our hotel.

Back at the hotel we went swimming at the hotel pool and the we got ready for dinner, which started with a salad and a vegetable mousse. Next was a soup with a fried spring roll in it for Claudia while I had creamy garlic soup. For the main course we got a delcious risotto and for the dessert we had sweet dumplings filled with marmelade. We ended our day with drinks on our balcony and watching TV.
