We have spent some time in winter at the Tannheimer Tal and did some winter hiking. Now we are back in town and tried summer hiking. Here are our results of the comparison:
- Some cable cars are also working
- The valley is more green than white
- It is warmer
- Some routes are the same
- At the theme paths some stations can only be used in the summer time
- There are no hot air balloons but many para gliders
- There are more hiking trails available to choose from
- You sweat more but slip less
- Brooks swoosh like in winter times
- There are less people around
- You can also sit outside the huts in summer
- There are cows and horses on the meadows… and pigs
- The view is also in summer absolutely stunning
- There are more flowers and plants along the ways
- There is now the Tannheimer Tal Card, with which the cable cars are free to use
- You can walk the smuggler path… and paint yourself black in the face
- You do not freeze in the chair lift
- There is more birds tweeting, insects and bee humming
- You can here more cow bells
- There is hardly any lining at the cable cars
- There is no ice at the summit cross
- There is less snow
- You can reach tops and huts that are not accessible in winter
- Wells bubble and are not frozen
- It does not snow so often
- The letter way in Jungholz is finished and now open
- Sunsets are at least as beautiful
- The herb gardens smell quite strong
- The Haldensee cannot be walked on but you can swim in it or use a boat on it
- Slopes are now ways or bike routes
- Tobogganing routes are now hiking ways
- More huts offering food are open
