Day 12 - from Möllbrücke to Kranjska Gora

Done, the Alps are behind us (but plenty of other mountains ahead ...). The last pass was called Wurzenpass, it was so steep (up to 18%) that we had to push for almost 2 hours. Before that, in the Drautal valley to Villach, bike paths were an absolute exception, which is why we had to move on the main road for a large part of the journey with trucks and cars. So .... we can't complain about Austrian bike paths, because there aren't any 🤪 ... or at least very few.

Villach is beautiful, but we didn't stay there long - just for a delicious ice cream.

After we did some shopping (Nicole, we still need to talk about that), we continued on to Slovenia; first along the Gail (very beautiful), accompanied by the Marienpilgerweg, then to Wurzenpass.

At the top, we reached the border to Slovenia and after a rapid descent, we reached the Sava Valley.

The first major town - Kranjska Gora. There, we will be staying at Anton's place and will be greeted with an apricot schnapps from a bottle without a label.

Impressive in this place is the view of the Triglav National Park!

In the church, there is a niche with a Fatima Madonna.

Friendly and warm hosts, cheerful people, good gastronomy (as far as we can judge after a sample) characterize this place.
