【4K】? Forest Hike in 4k: Straight out of a Fairy Tale
Forest hike in 4k: Covid-19 is still going strong in Austria. But the weather was nice and warm, and so I decided to going for a walk in the woods. I have never been in this place before and I was pleasently surprised by its beauty.
Luckily, I recorded this forest hike using my 4k camera. The place was dreamy, as if it came straight out of a fairy tale. The sunlight was breaking through the trees, the ground was covered with fresh green grass. Birds were singing and there was no other sound. The path led me downhill until I finally reached a small meadow with a calm brook running by.
I had a great time and I am happy that I can share this wonderful experience with you. I hope you enjoyed my forest hike in 4k, too! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyrlUsWBptM
Hiking to medieval castle ruins on a sunny day in spring. The weather became very warm and to get some more vitamin D, I decided to take another walk. This time, I hiked to the medieval castle ruins next to the city of Mödling.
Mödling castle was built some time in the 11th century. It is situated in the immediate south of the Austrian capital Vienna and located in a nature park. It's close proximity to Vienna and the smaller city of Mödling make these medieval castle ruins a favorite spot for hikers.
Among the remains of this once mighty stronghold are the shield walls and a part of the keep. As you can see in the video, from the medieval castle ruins' main tower offers a very nice view of the surrounding area.

Checking out a Food Court in China. This place features a broad variation of restaurants and take aways. Here you can find different Chinese restaurants that offer dishes from various provinces like Sichuan. There are also places specializing on certain dishes or ingredients like dumplings, noodles, or desserts. Over the recent years, food courts became a favorite of the Chinese people and today you can find them in pretty much every city.

The Myra waterfalls in Lower Austria are a wonderful piece of nature located about one hour to the south of Austria's capital Vienna.
Due to the lockdown going into effect in Austria because of Covid 19 / Corona-Virus, I decided to visit a location with only few people around. I had never been to the Myra waterfalls before and was pleasantly surprised by the beauty of this place.
Following up a wooden construction next to the rushing brook, I was able to capture a lot of great impressions. I was also lucky because this was the only time of the day where the sun managed to come out.
There are two small lakes, at the bottom and the top of the Myra falls. In this video, I only captured the upper one. There's plenty of trout living in the water and I would have loved to try some in one of the local inns. Sadly, due to the virus and the lockdown in effect I had to pass on that.

Hiking in Austria is a great experience. On this beautiful day in mid March I went to the Kurpark in Baden near Vienna, a nice mix of city park and forest. The park is mainly a spot for the locals to relax and enjoy nature. However, for visitors its also a memorable tourist destination.
While the lower part of the Kurpark next to the old town center has a traditional layout and is surrounded by many historic buildings, the other part features a natural landscape covered by forest.
If you follow the trails leading up the hill you will eventually end up at the Theresienwarte, a lookout tower overlooking the whole city. What's special about this place is that this hill is basically right at the edge of the alps. From here you have a fantastic view of the lowlands stretching to the east, all the way towards the border with Hungary.
So if you happen to travel to Vienna and want to experience some nice Austrian landscape without having to go to far, Baden near Vienna is a great place for a day trip. Whilen Baden with its rich culture and historic town center is great for sightseeing, the Kurpark offers a little bit of adventure.

Exploring an old stone quarry in the Austrian city of Bad Vöslau on a beautiful day in early spring. This large old stone quarry has been used as a geological show object for some time. There are several tunnels in this area, some of which are accessible. The rock consists of dolomite, lime slate and dolomite breccia. Access to the slopes is prohibited as the rock is very fragile and therefore life-threatening!
The view from the old stone quarry is very nice. After enjoying the panoramic view, I make may way down to one of the abandoned tunnels of the quarry. Some of these man made caves can be accessed. Going inside is a little bit creepy and I didn't want to stay inside for too long as I didn't fully trust that the rock was stable.
This old stone quarry and the surrounding area are a favorite spot for the locals for hiking. Located right next to Bad Vöslau a lot of people come here. A circular hiking route leads around the quarry. As you can see in the video, the cliffs are very tall and not secured. That's why hikers need to be very careful when exploring the area.

Laxenburg Park in Austria is a park surrounding the imperial Laxenburg palace just south of the Austrian capital of Vienna. The park is a favorite spot for visitors not just from the city but also from nearby Slovakia and Hungary.
In the video I follow a nice path leading through a sunny forest and along a small lake. Laxenburg palace is located on a small island in the middle of the lake. Since you can only see its interior as part of a paid guided tour I just briefly went inside.
I plan to make another video at the beginning of summer when everything is in full bloom.

Taking a walk through the gardens of Grafenegg Castle in Austria. The castle dates back to the 13th century. It acquired its present form in the style of “romantic historicism” in the 19th century.
The gardens consist of a network of trails leading visitors to various interesting places including sculptures and the cloud tower, a modern open-air stage. As can be seen in the video, lucky visitors can even spot deer and other animals while exploring the area.
