Had another great day today. I managed to get 4 Mums, one Dad and 12 kids together to hike up to the Wildseeloderhaus which is above Fieberbrunn. I called to check if it was ok for kids from 4 years of age and they said "yeah, it's just a nice walk of about an hour". Got out of the Gondola and the hour was right but it was down into a valley and then up the steep other side to the hut. The kids all looked at it and kinda groaned but then set off pretty well.
It took us just over an hour with a break in the middle. The fact that there were so many kids really helped as they didn't really notice the walk as they were hunting blueberries, talking and playing all the way up. Even the youngest raced up there.
On arriving at the top we were surrounded by fog and it was a bit fresh to say the least. The kiwi kid and the swedish kids (used to other temperatures) immediately stripped off and went in the lake for a dip. Must have been about 13 degrees or even less. We were up at 1800m - brrrr !
We had a great lunch in the hut and while the adults were gossipping and having a coffee the kids ran around the whole lake - they still had some energy - and then we headed back down again. Stopping along the way of course to eat blueberries - Charly had purple lips and tongue - great laugh !
All had a great day and here are some photos:
The hut is in the big dip at the top of the photo - quite a way up huh !
Love us 3 xxxooo

WOW - what a hike - I am not sure that my walking group would manage that one - looks fantastic and you would all feel proud of yourselves for doing it. Brrr - it must have been cold in the water Charly but you said you didn't mind. xxxx O&O Down-under
