Quite how big the staircase actually was got carefully kept from me beforehand. Afterwards we drive one of Europe’s best known coastal roads - and finally stop in a city we had previously only ever driven past…

Back to Austria 🇦🇹 - Snow in the Lech Valley

I pick a campsite in the Lech valley and once again do not look too closely at the route. The snow gets deeper and deeper, skiers are everywhere - and then we get a visit from the Allgäu…
