Mittenwald is known for its the painted houses. the process is called " Lueftel malerei"Goethe called Mittenwald a live picture book. We took a tour of the town and took some photos.
I knew about a variation of the bike trail that would take us through some beautiful meadows called Buckel wiesen (bucking Meadows) , but I also knew it would mean a pretty good climb to get there. Mac said ok so off we went to find the way which was a bit diffic ult, but found it. Up and up it went. Mac: Why do we have to climb the hill when we could be on the regular bike trail were it is flat.Because the regular trail goes right a long a busy road with noise and bad air. In the end the Buckelwiesen were well worth the climb as you will see from the photos. At the little village of Kruen we joined the regular trail and followed the river to Bad Toelz , found a nice place to stay went to the old part of town and had dinner. Mac had pork roast with red cabbage and potato dumpling, I had Spargel (white asparagus ) hollandaise and prociutto . Afterwards gelato and we were happy.
So far beautiful weather.
