Summer in the natural paradise of Gastein

A summer holiday in the Alps is always a fascinating experience. Breathing the fresh mountain air, dipping tired feet into crystal clear mountain lakes, discovering rare plants and animals, and enjoying a well-earned refreshment in a traditional mountain hut. There is nothing quite like a simple meal of home made bread and cheese, accompanied by fresh milk, after an adventurous hike. Gastein  with its imposing mountains and valleys is definitely amongst the most beautiful places in the Austrian Alps.
