Stiegl Gut Bike Tour 2024

Stiegl Gut Wildshut

Thursday - August 15th 2024

Our second bike tour this summer started with a stop at the main train station to buy some snacks at the bakery. Today was a public holiday and so all shops were closed except for the ones at the train station. After we got our snacks we were on our way to Stiegl Gut Wildshut, where we arrived around noon. Stiegl Gut Wildshut is a combination of a restaurant, brewery, distillery and farm and is part of the Stiegl Brewery in Salzburg. Once we arrived there, we got a glass of beer while enjoying the lovely weather. Afterwards we hit the road again and cycled back to Salzburg. In Laufen we stopped for delicious ice cream and soon we were back at home.

Königssee Bike Tour 2024

Königssee Bike Tour
 
Saturday - July 27th 2024
 
This weekend the weather was really nice and so we decided to do a bike tour to the famous Könnigssee in Bavaria just a couple of kilometres away from Salzburg. We started in the morning and around noon we arrived at the totally over crowded village of Schönau am Königssee. Along the way we stopped at a lovely restaurant for a refreshing glass of beer. Since Schönau was unbearable with all the tourists, we cycled back to Salzburg. Of course we had to get a beer on they way home too. Back in Salzburg we eneded our bike tour with frozen yogurt.

Fantasiana 2023

Saturday - October 28th 2023
 
It has become a sort of a tradition and so each year we visit a samll local themepark called Fantasiana for Halloween. This year was no exception and we spent a great Saturday afternoon at the park. Fantasiana was beautifully decorated for Halloween. When we arrived we did the bigger rides first and so we headed directly to Fridolin's Zauberexpress, the park's family coaster. Of course we had to try some snacks as well, like donuts and pretzels. Then we rode some smaller rides and the park's other big coaster before having a couple of drinks while enjoying the warm autumn weather.

Fantasiana 2021

Saturday - October 30th 2021
 
Near Salzburg is small amusement park called Fantasiana. We had never been there and since it was Halloween, we decided to check it out and spend a couple of hours there. To our surprise the park was really crowded, but we managed to ride the two rollercoasters the park has to offer. The first one was Wild Train and the second one was Fridolins Zauberexpress. Wild Train was indeed wild with lots of airtime, but rather short. Nonetheless it was a fun ride.

Fridolins Zauberexpress was Fantasiana's newest coaster aimed towards families. Although it was also short, it featured two launches and two rounds around the track. Afterwards we got a bretzel and a beer and enjoyed the last sunbeams. Then we just walked around the park to see what else it had to offer. Since it was Halloween weekend Fantasia was decked out with ghosts, blood fountains and pumpkins. Then we returned to the outdoor restaurant for another beer and fries before we returned home.
