Ahe object of the Handbook to the Eastern Alps is to describe ali that is best rvorth seeing, to assist the traveller in planning his tour and disposing of his time to the best ad- vantage, to render him as independent as possible of the Services of interested parties, and thus to enable him the more thoroughly to enjoy the magnificent scenery of one of the most attractive regions in Europe. The Handbook has been compiled almost entirely from the personal observation of the Editor, who has repeatedly visited the Eastern Alps within the last few years for the purpose of obtaining the most recent and trustworthy in- formation. As, hoivever, many of the data in the Handbook relate to matters which are constantly undergoing alteration, the Editor will highly appreciate any corrections or sugges- tions with rvhich travellers may favour him. Tliose already reoeived, which in many instances have proved most useful, ho gratefully acknorvledges. The present edition of the Handbook corresponds with the thirty-fonrth German edition. Its contents are divided into FivE Sections (I. Southern Bavaria; II. Salzburg, Salzkam- mergut, and Hohe Tauern; III. NorthernTyrol; IV. Southern Tyrol; V. Alps of Upper and Lower Austria, Styria, Carin- thia, and Carniola), eaeh of which may be separately removed from the book by the mountaineer or pedestrian who desires to minimise the bulk of his luggage. To eaeh section is pre- fixed a list of the routes it contains, so that eaeh forms an ap- proximately complete volume apart from the general table of contents. The Maps and Plans, on.rvhich the utmost čare has been bestowod, will, it is hoped, render the traveller hardly less material service than the ietter-press. Eighteen new maps and plans, besid.es three new panoramas, have been added in the present edition. The Time Tables contained in ‘HendscheVs Telegraph’, published at Frankfort on the Main, and issued monthly in summer, and in the ‘ Reichs-Kursbuch’, published at Berlin, and issued eight times a year, will be found satisfactory. The best Austrian publication of the kind is the ‘ Osterreichische Kur&buch', which appears at Vienna monthly. VI PREFACE. Distances by railway and highroad are given approxi- mately in English miles; while those on bridle-paths and mountain-routes are expressed by the time in which tliey are usually \valked. The number of miles at the beginning of a paragraph denotes the distance from the starting-point, while the distances from plače to plače are generally stated within brackets; but on railway-routesthe mileage is altvays reckoned from the starting-point. — Heights are stated in the text in English feet; on the maps they are shown in mfetres (1 Engl. ft. = 0.3048 metre; 1 mbtre = 3.281 Engl. ft. or about 3 ft. V/ 3 in.). — The Populations are those ascertained by the latest census. Hotels. The Editor has endeavoured to enumerate, not only the first-class hotels, but others of a less pretending kind, wliich may be safely seleoted by the ‘voyageur en gar- gon’, with little sacrifiee of comfort and great saving of expenditure. The asterisks indicate those hotels which the Editor has reason to believe to be provided with the comforts and conveniences expected in an up-to-date establishment, and also to be \vell managed and with a reasonable scale of charges. Houses of a more nrodest eharacter, tvhen good of their olass, are desoribed as ‘good’ or ‘very fair'. At the same time he does not doubt that equally comfortable accommo- dation may sometimes be obtained at hotels which he has not starred or even mentioned. Hotel-charges, as well as car- riage-fares and fees to guides, are stated in the Handbook, eitlier in accordance with the personal experienoe of the Editor, or from information furnished by numerous travellers. Tliey are of eourse liable to frequent variation, and generally have an uptvard tendency; but those mentioned in the follotv- ing pages will at least afford the traveller an idea of his probable expenditure. To hotel-keepers, tradesinen, and others, the Editor begs to intimate that a eharacter for fair dealing torvards tra¬ vellers is the sole passport to his commendation, and that advertisements of every kind are strictly excluded from his Handbooks. Hotel-keepers are also \varned against persons representing themselves as agents for Baedeker’sHandbooks. CONTENTS, Page I. Language. Money. xi II. Passports and Custom Houses. xi III. Plan of Tour.

For travellers purposing to explore the remoter parts of tlie Eastem Alps a slight acquaintance vrith German is very desirable; but those who do not deviate from tlie beaten track will generally flnd that English or French is spoken at the princi¬ pal hotels and the usual puhlic resorts. Monet. The new Austrian monetary unit is the Krone ( Crown; 1 K, — i/ 2 florin) = 100 Keller (h.), though reckonings are stili some- times urade in the old Florins (Gulden) and Kreuzers (1 florin — 100 kreuzer = 2 crowns). Large sums are paid in government-notes (10 and 20 K.) or banknotes (50, 100, and 1000 K.). The average rate of exchange for a sovereign (or a German gold piece of 20 marks) is 24 K., and for a Napoleon 19 ! /2 K. Those \vho travel with large sums sliould he provided with circular notes, in preference to bank¬ notes or gold, the value of the former beingrecoverable in čase of loss. The cost of a tour among the Alps of Bavaria and Tyrol de- pends of course on a great variety of circumstances; but, as a rule, travelling in S. Germany and among the Austrian mountains is less expensive than in most otlier parts of Europe. The pedestrian of moderate requirements, and tolerably proflcient in the language, inay, by avoiding the beaten track as much as possible, succeed in limiting his expenditure to 6-8s. per diem; but the traveller ivho prefers driving to \valking , frequents hotels of the higliest class, and requires the Services of guides and commissionnaires, must be prepared to expend at least 25-30s. daily. II. Passports and Custom Houses. Passpohts are not absolutelv necessary in Austria or in Ger- many; but they are sometimes called for in order to prove the identity of the traveller, they are not unfrequently serviceable in procuring admission to collection^, and they must be presented at the post-offlce before the traveller can obtain delivery of registered letters. Cyclists and motorists are advised to carry passports. Passports may be obtained direct from the Passport Department of the Foreign Oflice, fVhitehall (fee 2s.), or through any tourist*agent. — In the United States applieation for passports shouhl be made to the Bureau of Citizenship, State Department, Washington, D.C. Custom House formalities are now almost everywhere leni- ent. As a rule, however, articles purchased during the journey, which are not destined for personal use, should be deelared at the frontier. At the Austrian frontier playing-cards, almanacks, and sealed letters are liable to conflscation. Tobacco and cigars, the III. PLAN OF TOUR. xiv šale of whick in Austria is a monopoly of government, are liable to a duty of about 12 K. per pound. According to tbe strict rule, one ounce of tobacco and 10 cigars oniy are exempt from duty. The keys should be sent along \vith ali luggage forwarded in advance. Visitors to S. Tyrol vvho intend to cross tbe Italian frontier are warned tbafc tbe possession of pbotograpbic apparatus or weapons feven knives witb spring-bladts) exposes them to suspicion or worse. Sketcbing or pboto- grapbing in tbe neigbbourbood of Austrian fortilications also is sometimes attended by unpleasant eonsequences. m. Plan of Tour. Season. Companions. Scenery. Health Resorts. Season. The best season for a visit to the mountains of S. Ger- inany and Austria is from the middle of July to the middle of Sep¬ tember; for excursions among the higher Alps, the month of Au- gust. Glacier expeditions should not be undertaken before the end of July. In September the short days are a disadvantage, and by the middle of the month many of the Alpine hotels and club-huts are closed. The lower Alps and the lakes may be visited as early as the end of May, \vhen the waterfalls, moreover, are seen in perfection. Companions. A party of two travellers can always be accommo- dated in a light conveyance, or in the same room at an inn , while a third would often be found ‘de trop’. The larger the party, the greater, as a rule, is the inconvenience, as well as the certainty that many of the true objects of travel ■svili be sacrificed. The single traveller, on the other hand, who has attained some proficiency in the language of the country, \vill of course more speedily become acquainted with the people and their characteristics, and more readily derive instruction from his tour.

In the clioice of a summer resort one of the most important considerations is its Height above the sea-level, although otber factors, such as its position with regard to \voods and lakes or streams, also demand attention. As •we ascend the purity of the atmosphere inereases, \vlvile atmosplieric pressure (a point of importance to mountaineers) and relative rnois- ture decrease. The following are the chief summer-resorts arranged in order of height above the sea-level. III. PLAN OF TOUR. xvii Height above Sea Level of Health Resorts in the Eastern Alps.

Winter Resorts. The popularity of thc Eastern Alps as a winter-resort has rapidly grown \vithin the last ten years or so. The braoing and invigorating effects of the winter climate among the Alps is principally due to the dryness and purlty of the atmosphere, analogous at tbe height of 2500 - 3300 ' to that experienced in brlght summer vreather at heights of not less than 6500 '. Dust and fog are alike unknown, tliere is comparatively little wind, the weather is usually settled, and between November and the middle of January there is a curious inversion of the thermometer, for the temperature IV. WALKING TOURS. xix rises as we ascend. The sun is frequently so poweri'ul tliat vlsitors inay comfortably sit in the open air for honrs at a time in sheltered spots. Many health-resorts and hotels tliat used to closein autumn now enjoy a prosperous \vinter season.

IV. Walking Tours. Guides. Equipment. The greatest drawback to the pleasure of travel- ling is a superabundance of baggage. To be provided with an actual sufficiency and no more may be regarded as one of the golden rules for travellers. A ligbt ‘gibeciere’ or ‘Reisetascbe’, sucb as may be procured in every town, amply suflices to contain ali that is necessary for a fortnight’s excursion. A cbange of ftannel sbirts and worsted stockings, a few pocket-bandkercbiefs, a pair of slip- pers, and a small dressing-case may , after tbe first few days, be carried with bardly a perceptible increase of fatigue. A piece of brown gauze or coloured spectacles to protect the eyes from tbeglare of tbe snow, stout gloves, a leatbern drinking-cup, and a pocket- knife witb a cork-screw sbould n‘(3t be forgotten. Useful, tbougb less indispensable, are a field-glass or small telescope, sevving raaterials, a supply ol strong cord, sticking-plaster, a small compass, a pocket-lantem, a tbermometer, and an aneroid barometer. Ladies also sbould try to limit tbeir wardrobe as mucb as possible, and see tbat everything is of a plain and serviceable nature. For tbe pedestrian a light Scottish plaid is better than a waterproof. Special attention sbould be paid to tbe boots, which must be strong, Avell-tried, and thoroughly comfortable, as the slightest tendency to rub or blister may seriously mar tbe enjoyment of the walk. For glacier - tours and mountain-ascents tbe soles must be supplied with nails, which, xx IV. WALKING TOUES. hovrever, may be added on reaching the mountainous distriet. The traveller should of conrse have a more extensive reserve of clothing, especially if he purposes visiting towns of impoitance; but it should be contained in a valise of moderate size, which he can easily wield when necessary, andforward from torni to town by post. In Austria eaeli parcel bas to be accompanied by a separate stamped ‘Postbe- gleit- Adresse’, obtained at the post-offlce (12 h.'). In Italy the maximum vceight of postal packages is 5 kilogramines (11 lbs.). The traveller who intends to ascend any of the loftier peaks should be provided with a well-tried Alpenstock , consisting of a pole of seasoned ash, 5-6 ft. long, shod with a Steel point, and strong enough, when placed horizontally, with the ends supported, to bear the whole weight of the body. For the more difiloult ascents an let Axt and Rope also are necessary. These articles can gen- erally be obtained from the guides, but in tliat čase their quality is not so trustworthy as when tho climber bas seleeted them for himself. The best rope, light and at the same time strong, is made of silk or Manilla hemp. In Crossing a glacier the precaution of using the rope should never be negleeted. It should be securely tied round the waist of each member of the party, leaving a length of abont 10' betvreen each one and his follovver. Ice-ax.es are made in various forms, and are usually furnished with a špike at the end of the handle, so that they can in some measure be used like an alpenstock. — Shoes with hernpen soles are sometimes used for mountain-climbing. Rulus. The enthusiastic traveller should curb his ardour at the outset of his excursion , and begin by moderate performances, as the overtaxing of his strength on a single occasion will some¬ times incapacitate him altogether for several days. It often requires diserimination to determine what degree of fatigue can be borne with impunity, and vvhen tvalking should be abandoned for the ease of a carriage; but ali these experiences will be acquired without the aid of a guide-book. The flrst golden rule for the ped- estrian is to start on his way betimes in the morning. If strength permits, and a suitable halting-place is to be met with, a two hours’ walk may be accomplished before breakfast. At noon a mod¬ erate lun<;heon is preferable to a Tegular table-d’hote dinner. Ee- pose should be taken during the hottest hours, and the ,iourney then continued till 0 or 6 p.m., when a substantial meal (evening table-d’hote at the principal hotelsj may be partaken of. When a mountain has to be breasted the prudent pedestrian vil 1 pursue the ‘even tenor of his way’ with regular and steady steps va piano va sano; chi va sano va lontano’); the novice alone indulges in ‘spurts’. If the traveller desires a further maxim for his guidance, it may be, ‘When fatigue begins enjoyment ceases’. To prevent the feet from blistering during a protraeted walk- ing tour they may be rubbed morning and evening with brandy IV. G UIDEŠ. xxi and tallow. A warm foot-bath witk bran -will be found soothing after a long day’s inarch. Soaping tlie inside of tbe stocking is an- other well-known safeguard against abiasion of tke skin. Excursions among the kigker Alps sbould not be undertaken before July, nor at any period after a long continuance of rain or snow. Glaciers should, ifpossible, be traversed before 10 a.m., after which hour tke rays of tke snn soften tke crust of ice formed o-rer tke flssures and crevasses during tke nigkt. It is hardly ne- cessary to State tkat ezperienced guides are absolutely indispensable for suck escursions. Tke cold glacier-water of tke kigker regions should not be drunk except in small quantities mixed with wine, cognac, or Kirschwasser. Cold milk also is prejudicial. Experienced moun- taineers recommend cold tea as a safe remedy for tkirst. Good old vrine in small quantities is preferred by otkers. Over ali tke movements of tke pedestrian tke Weather kolds despotic sway. Tkose wko claim acquaintance vvith tke elements and their signs will teli Mm of numberless indications by tvkick eitker foul or favourable weatker may be predicted, and tkeir advice vrill often be found valnable. Tke barometer, too, skould be con- sulted wken an opportunity offers. Mountain-views are generally clearest in the morning or towards evening. Guides. Witkin tke last few years tke guides among tke S. German and Austrian Alps have greatly improved, ckiefly owing to tke exertions of the German and Austrian Alpine Club, and a tariff of fixed ekarges kas been introduced at most of their head- quarters. Competent guides can now be obtained in almost every part of Tyrol; and some of tke Tyrolese guides rank with tke best in Switzerland, kaxing occasionally been employed by tke most eminent Britisk and German mountaineers for extensi¥e tours beyond tke limits of tkeir native districts. Tke names of the best- known guides are given in tke Handbook, and the ekarges fixed by tariff for tke principal excursions are mentioned also. Eack guide is usually bound to earry 151bs. weigkt of luggage. Glacier-expe- ditions skould never be attempted without a guide, except perkaps by a party of adepts. Wken a glacier is entirely free from snow (‘aper’) it may generally be traversed in safety by a party of two persons; otherwise the party skould consist of tkree persons at least, ali seourely roped togetker. It need kardly be added tkat tke re- lations between the traveller and kis guide skould always be plea- sant and cordial. For longer tours it is often advisable to engage a guide by time. If tke guide is dismissed at a distance from his kome, ke is paid for tke time necessary to reach it. Club Huts. Tke numerous Club Buts (‘Unterkunfts-Hulten’) ereeted by tke German and Austrian Alpine Club and tke Austrian Tonrist Club have done muck to inerease tke pleasures and decrease tke discomforts of the kigher ascents. These hnts are generally xxii V. MOTORING. tvell fltted. up, and contain inattresses or hay-beds, vroollen cover- lets, a small cooking-stove, cooking utensils, plates, and glasses. A small sum, flxed by tariff, is charged for the aooommodation aiiorded, wliicki members of Alpine clubs generally obtain at about half the priče paid by ordinary tourists. When the traveller pur- poses spending the night in one of these huts and starting thence for the ascent, he should take a good supply of portable provisions with him (tinned meats, ‘Erhswurst’, beef-extract, condensed milk, tea and coffee, etc.); but many of them are now regular inns in summer. The public-spirited German and Austrian Alpine Club, by tvhich most of these huts have been erected, now numbers upwards of 86,000 members, who belong to 381 dilferent Sections, about two-thirds of these being German and the other third Austrian, The usual annual subscription is 10 JI, rvliich entitles the sub- scriber to 24 numbers of the ‘Mitteilungen’ and to one volume of the ‘Zeitschrift’, with rnaps and illustrations. The Austrian Tourist Club (founded in 1869; 15,000 members) also bas done good work in building refuge-huts, improving paths, etc. The accommodation afforded by the Chalets of the Alpine herds- men is generally very inferior to that of the club-huts. ‘Whatever poetry there may be theoretically in a bed of hay, the traveller will flnd that the cold night-air piercing abundant apertures, the jangl- ing of the cow-bells, and the grunting of the pigs are little eon- duoive to refreshing slumber. Health. Tincture of arnica is a good remedy for bruises, and more- over has a bracing and invigorating e filet if rubbed on the limbs after much fatigue; but it should never be applied to broken skin, as it is apt to produce erysipelas. Saturnine ointment or oxide of siri- ointment is beneficial in cases of inflammation of the skin, an inconveuience frequently caused by exposure to the giare of the sun on the snow. Cold cream, and, for the lips especially, vaseline or glycerine are also recommended. For Diarrhoea 15 drops of a mixture of eqnal parts of tincture of opium and aromatic tincture may be safely taken every two hours until relief is alibi ded. The homoeopathic tincture of camphor (5 drops on a lump of sugar every half-hour or so) is also a good remedy. The homceopathie camphor-globules are convenient, but are more apt to lose their strength. Distress Signala. Alpine tourists vvlio get into difliculties and fmd themselves in need of aid may avail themselves of the signal code agreed upon for ihat contingency by the German, Austrian, and other Alpine Clubs. This consists in giving six sigDals at regular intervals within the space of a minute, then pausing for a minute, and then repeating the regular signals, The answer is given by making three signals at regular intervals within the space of a minute. The signals may be inade by waving a flag or a handkerchief on Ihe end of an alpenstock, or by shouting, or by whist- ling, or by flash-iights from a mirror, or ivith a lantern, etc. V. Motoring and Cycling Notes. Motor CABsentering Austrla or Germany are subject to customs- duty, the amount being returnable if the car quit the country within a given period. But members of the chief automobile clubs are sp&red the necessity of making this deposit on conditions explained in the usual handbooks. In Austria drivers require a certiflcate from V. CYOUNG. xxiii the authorities; tlie car must display a small number-plate in front and a large number-plate bekind; and the speed-limit is 27 M. (46 Kil.) per hr. or in populons places 9 M. (15 Kil.). In Germany the car-owner mn st take out an official permission (Erlaulnis-Karte; up to 30 days 40 M) and the driver’s certlficate must be counter- signed by a German consul. In populous districts and after dark the speed-limit is 9 M. per hr.; othenvise there is no limit, but driving to the publio danger, rvhatever the speed, is an offence. Lamps, brakes, and horns are imperative, but foreigners are not required to carry nnmber-plates. Kor local regulations (vvhich vary) in both countries, motorists sbould apply to the police. The following roads are either closed to motors or are unfit for motor- traffic: Lechtal road (B. 48), Kniepass road at Reutte (p. 42), Plansee road (Reutte Planseo-Ammervvald, R. 10), Achental road (Jenbach-Achen- see.p. 221), Walchsee ruad (from Inntal to Kossen, p. 21(1), O etata) road (p. 321), PasseieT road (p. 315), 8tubaital road (p. 303), Patznaun road (B. 49), Kaunser-Tal road (p. 338), Oroden road (p. 431), Enneberg road (St. Lorenzen- Corvara, R. 80), Sextcn road (p. 492), Taufers road (B. 78), Iseltal road (p. 194), Sarntal road (Botzen-Sarnthein, p. 364), Eggental road (Kardaun- Karersee Hotel p. 444), Kastelruth road (p. 438), Sulden road (p. 387), Cembra-Tal road (p. 461), Lavarone road (p. 462), and Ulten road (p. 376). Cycles accompanietl by tbeir otvners entering Austria pay a customs-duty of 60 K ., tvbicb is rcturned when tke country is quitted; but members of tbe more important cycling unions can usually avoid the necessity for this deposit. Cycles are admitted to Germany tvithout customs formalities, hut a charge of 8-10 M is made on crated machines if tliey look new. In both countries each machine must be provided with a brake, beli, and lamp; the last must be lighted after dark even when tbe machine is stationary or being pushed. Througk-tourists are not usually bound to carry number-plates. "Where special cyclist-patbs are provided (‘Rad- fahrwege’; usually in the environs of larger to\vns) the cyclistmust use these. Police regulations vary as to the use of narrow and steep streets in towns and villages, or of the side-walks on countrv- roads, etc. Rule op the Road. In Germany, Vorarlberg, Tyrol, Upper Austria, Carinthia, and the Austrian. Littoral vehicles keep to the right in meeting, and pass on the left in overtaking. In Salzburg, Lotver Austria, Styria, and Carniola the reverse is the rule, as in England. Led horses sbould be met and passed on the side on \vhich the man in charge is. 41ai's. Information as to tliese can be obtained at the beadquarters of the chief motoring and cycling clubs in England or America. Among the best German maj)s are the following: Strassenkarte von Bapern. published by the German Touring-Klub, in 4 sheets at 2 JI each (1: 260,000); Profile der Hauptslrassen in den oe&tevreichiscken Alpenlandern, by Jaeer and Seeger, in 16 sheets at 56 h. each (together 7 JI)-, LechneJe Tourenkarten in 10 sheets at 1 JI 75 pf. each; Mittelbach's Strassenprofilkarte von Peulschland vnd Oester- : '^50,000) in 82 sheets at 1 l /zJt each; Preytag'e Rad/ahrer-Karten (1:300,000) in 60 sheets at l.A85pf. each (Alpine districts, sheets 23-30); llavmsteirfs Radfahrer-Karte filr die Ost-Alpm (1: 500,000) in 2 sheets at 3 JI each; Brum's Touren-Karte von Obcrbapem, Nordtirol , und Salzburg (2 M 75pf.), xxiv VI. CONVEVANCES. VI. Conveyances. Railvvat Travelling in Germany is less expensive than in most other parts of Europe, and the carriages are generally clean and comfortably fitted up; but in Austria the fares are somewhat higher and the carriages inferior. The second-class carriages, pTovided \vith spring-seats, are often better than those of the flrst class in England. Smoking is alkmed in ali the carriages, except those ‘Fiir Nichtraucher’ and the coupes for ladies. The speed seldom exceeds 25 M. per hour, and as the railways are generally well organised and under the supervision of government, accidents are happily rare. No one is admitted to the platform vvithout either a railway-ticket or a platform - ticket ( Bahnsteiglcarte). Hand-luggage is free, but the heavier luggage must be booked and a ticket procured for it; and this being done, the traveller need be under no apprehension, as it will be kept in safe custody at its destination until he presents his ticket. When a frontier has to be crossed the traveller is strongly recommended to keep his luggage with him, and to superintend the custom-liouse examination in person. — English money is occasion- aliy refused at the Austrian ticket-offlces, and the traveller should therefore al\vays be provided with a sufllcient store of Austrian or German money. Diligences, called ‘Eilviageri or ‘Mallepostes’ in Austria, gener- ally carry three passengers only, two in the inside and one in the coupe. The latter alone affords a tolerable survey of the scenery, and should if possible be secured. In much-frequented districts it is frequently engaged several days beforehand. The guards, who are often retired non-commissioned offlcers, are generally vvell-informed and obliging. The usual quantity of luggage allovved to each pass- enger does not exceed 201bs., overweight heing charged for by tariff. Passengers are sometimes required to book their luggage two hours before the time of starting, or even on the previous evening. — The old l Stellwagen\ formerly the chief means of transit in TyroI, has now been superseded by the more comfortable OMNtBUS. On nearly ali the chief routes Post Omnibuses or Mail Coaches now run, ■with relays of liorses at the different stages. The best places are the cabriolet and the coupd; and travellers should secure their seats in good time. — Motor Omnibuses also ply on several routes. Extba-Post. The usual tariff in Austria for a carriage-and-pair for four persons with moderate luggage is about 10 K. per stage of 15 kilomhtres (9% Engl. M.). For a party of four persons posting is cheaper than travelling by diligence, and of course pleasanter. — In engaging PnrvATE Caeeiages the stipulation should always be made that the fare includes ali tolls. VII. M APS. XXV VII. Maps. The maps contained in the Handbook will meet the requirements of ali ordinary travellers, hut the mountaineer and the pedestrian may oceasionally desire to consult others on a larger scale. The best of these are enumerated below. Bavabia. Topographischer Atlas von Bayern (1: 50,000; Ufo JI per sheet, oopper-plate 3 JI , mountain-sheets in colours ll/ 2 Ji). — Topographische Karte von Bagern (_ 1:25,000; 1 JI per sheet). Ali the sheets of the Alpine districts liave been issued. — Karte des Deutschen Beiches (1:100,000), 50 pf. per sheet, in colours 75 pf., copper-plate Ufo Ji • Southern Bavaria occupies 18 sheets (the frontier-sheets contain also the adjoining Austrian districts). Austbia. The Spezialkarte der osterreichisch - ungarischen Mon- archie, published by the Imperial Military-Geographical Institute of Vienna (1: 75,000; 1 JI per sheet, on cloth 1 J{9>Q pf.), embraces not only the Austrian Alps but also the adjoining parts of Bavaria and Italy. A number of sheets have been published with tke Marked Paths in colours (1 Ji 40 or 2 JI 20 pf.). The Imperial Military Geographical Institute has begun also to issue a series of Topo- graphical Detail Maps (1: 50,000), with the marked paths in colours (each sheet 3 K. 40 h.). — Freytag’s Touristen - Wanderkarten (1:100,000), showing the marked paths in colours (13 sheets at 2 K. each, on cloth 2 K. 80 h.). Italy. The C ar ta topografica del Regno d’Italia (1 : 75,000; 1 fr. per sheet) is published by the Reale Instituto Geografico Militare. Other flrst-class special maps are the follorving, published by the German and Austrian Alpine Club (scale 1: 50,000): Zillertaler Alpen (2 sheets, 2 JI each), Venedig er-Gruppe (2^0, Kaisergebirge (IJi)j Berchtesgadener Land (5 Ji), Karwendelgruppe(2Ji), Gross- glocknergruppe (2 Ji), Ortlergruppe (2 Ji), Sonnblick und Umge- bung (1 Ji), OetztalerAlpen (4 sheets, 2 Ji each), Schlern and Bosen- gartenC2J(), Ferviallgruppe (2 JI), AdamclloandFresanella Gruppe (2 Ji), Uieserferner-Gruppe (1 Ji), and Ankogel-Hochalmspitz- Gruppe (2 Ji).

Also (scale 1:100,000) Dolomiten-Karte (E. and W. sheets 2 Ji each). The prices given are those for members of Alpine Clubs; the booksellers charge double. VIII. Hotela. Little variation occurs in the accommodation and charges of flrst-class hotels in the principal towns and watering-places through- out Germany and Austria; but it frequently happens that in old- fashioned hotels of unassuming exterior the traveller flnds as much real comfort as in the modern establishments, while the charges x.xyi VEL HOTELS. are mucli lower. The best houses of both descriptions are therefore enumerated in.the Handbook. Where the traveller remains for a week or more at an hotel, It is advisable to pay, or at least call for his account every two or three days, in order to obviate the risk of erroneous insertions. Verbal reckonings are objectionable. A waiter’s mental arithmetic is apt to be faulty, and his mistakes are seldom in favour of the traveller. A habit too often prevails of presenting the bili at the last moment, when no time is left for the detection of errors or wil- ful impositions. Those who pnrpose starting early in the morniug will do well to ask for their bills on the previous evening. A peculiarity of many of the Austrian inns is that they have a ‘ Gaslzimmer' for the humbler classes on the groundfloor, while the ‘Salle h Manger ’ for more distinguished visitors is on the first floor. The viands and liquors supplied in these apartments are gener- ally the same, while the charges differ considerably. Pedestrians and travellers of moderate requirements will find the country inns in S. Germany and the German parts of Tyrol very reasonable, 5-6s. a day being generally sufficient to include every item. In the Italian districts, however, the charges are higher by about one- half, and larger gratuities are expected by the attendants. Trav¬ ellers about to explore very remote districts are recommended to take a supply of tea, coffee, or chocolate with them. Where there are no inns, accommodation may generally be obtained at the cur^s on reasonable terms. The Post Inns are generally good. Those patronised by the ‘ Steli wagen’ are very inferior, although convenient for persons tra- velling by these vehicles, especially when encumbered with luggage. Some of tlie Austrian dishes have curious names ; e.g. ‘Garniertes Rindfleisch' or ‘Feines Rindfleish’, hoiled beef with various vegetables, usually very good; ‘Guly£s\ Hungarian baked meat, peppered; ‘Paprika- huhn’, fowl prepared in a similar way; ‘Jungfernbraten 1 , roast pork wilh juniper-berries; ‘Matrosen Braten 1 , ‘Gedampfter Spitz’, ‘Ofener Braten 1 , ‘Husaren-Braten’, varieties of stewed beef; ‘Ungarisches Rebhuhn’, pickled veal; ‘Fisolen’, beans; ‘Heurige Erdapfel’, new potatoes; ‘Carfiol’, cauli- flower; ‘Kren’, horse-radisb; ‘Aspic’, jelly; ‘Risibisi', rice and peas; ‘Beuscber, calves’ lungs in vinegar; ‘Junges Wild’, ragout or entrails of game, etc.; ‘Kaiserfleisch’, smoked sucking-pig; ‘Krenfleisch - ’, stewed pork with horse-radish; ‘Frankfurter', small boiled sausages. — Cold dishes and whets are grouped under the heading ‘Flors d , oeuvres'' or ‘Assietten 1 . — Among favourite sweet dishes are: ‘Strudel mit Roster’’, thin pastry with steamed plums; ‘Schmarrn’, a kind ofpastry; ‘Bohmische Dalken 1 , pastry with stewed plums (p6wedel); ‘Topfenhaluska’, dumplings with curds; ‘Koch', souffle. Table-wine is served in open bottles O/4 litre) or in glasses, and is usually drunk mixed with soda-water (syphon) or other mineral water. ‘Ein achtel gespritzt 1 means 1 /g litre of wine with V« litre of soda-water; ‘doppelt' or ‘voli gespritzt' means with twice the quantity of soda-water. English travellers often impose eonsiderable trouble by ordering things alrnost unknown in German usage, and are apt to become involved in disputes owing to their ignorance of the language. They X.

It lies neai the beautiful hluish-green *Alj>-See , which is girdled with fine woods, tvhile the steep crags of the Pilgersehrofen rise above its S. end. Opposite the Alpenrose Hotel hegins the ‘Fiirsten-Strasse’ (open to pedestrians only), from tvhich (3 min.) a road to the right to Schloss llohenschtvangau and (8 min.) the above-mentioned footpath to Fiissen diverge. About 40 paces farther on a footpath leads to the left to the ‘Pindar-Platz’, a rocky projection with a view of the lake (p. 42). Well-made paths make the entire Circuit of the lake (II /4 hr.). — The footpath to the old Schloss ascends opposite the tisi Hotel (6 min.; adin., see above; duration of visit about 40 min.). *Schloss Hohensehwangau (2840'), formerly called Schwan- stein, originally belonged to the house of Guelpli but in 1567 passed to the Dukes of Bavaria. It was sold for a trifling sum in 1820 and in 1832 was purchased by King Max II. of Bavaria (d. 1864), then crown-prince, tvho caused the ruin to be entirely reconstructed and decorated with frescoes from German legend and history by Schioind , Lindcnschmit , and other Munich artists. The castle oommands charming views of the plain, the Alp-See, and Neu-Schwanstein. It \vas the favourite residence of Kings Max II. and Louis II. The little garden, to the left of the entrance to the castle, contains a Marble liath , cut out of the rock, with tvro nymphs, by Schwan- thaler, and the Lion Fountain , by tlie same artist. Opposite the ascent to Holienschwangau, near the Lisi Hotel, begins the road to (25-30 min.)

The road next passes the Schloss lUstouru.nl (5 rooms, well spoken of) and in 8 min. reaches the castle of — *Neu-Sehwanstein (3165'), begun by King Louis II. in 1869 on the site of the old castle of Vorder-Hohenschwangau, and beau- tifully situated on a precipitous rock above the profound ravino of the Pollat. The castle, built in the Romanesque style by Doll- mann, Rtedel , and Hofmann , is planned somervhat after the style and arrangement of the TVartburg, but on a much larger scale.

The imposing Palas has four stories : the groundfloor contains the offices, the first floor is occupied by the attendants, the second is unfin- ished, and the rojal aparlments are on the third. Visitors ascend to the third floor by a staircase of 96 steps in the massive N. tower, 195' high. The landing at the top of the staircase is adorned with frescoes by Hau- scliild, illustrating the legend of Sigurd. To the left we pass through the Adjutants' Room to the King's Study , \vith scenes from the story of Tanri- liiiuser by Aigner; and thence through the Blalaciite Grotto to the former Winler Garden , a balconycommanding a line view of the plain.

A footpath, diverging to the left from the road at the N. angle of the castle, leads to the W. round the castle to the above-mentioned bridle- path. Before the latter is rcached (4 min.), a footpath descends to the left to the Gorge of the Pollat , where we have a view of the castle and of the Ptillat \Vaterfall (85'). We ascend by the bridle-patli and in 5 min. reach a point whence two footpaths diverge: one, to the right, leading down to the (1 min.) *Jugend (2955'), a clearing in the wood commanding a cbarming view of Hohenschwangau and the Alp-See; the other, to the left, ascends to the (4 min.) -Marien-Briicke, a handsome iron bridge 138' long, which boldly spans the rocky gorge of the Pollat at a height of 295' above the waterfall and affords the best view of Neu- Schwanstein. — Returning from the bridge, we take the path to the left, whieh brings us in 2 min. to the Blockenau road, at vvliicli also the bridle- patli ends (to IIohenschwangau village by this road l /i hr.). From Hohensclrvvangau a direct and interesting route leads to Linder- hof (p. 57) in 6 hrs. (guide unneces. c ary). A road leads through the Pdllat- Tal to tlie (P /2 hr.) royal shooting-lodge in the Blockenau , and thence a good footpath crosses the Schiitzensteig or Jftgersteig (4660') to the (1 hr.)

PARTNACHKLAMM. Maximilianshohe, 20 mioutes. Leaving Garmisch, we cross the upper Loisach bridge and aacend to tbe left past tbe (5 min.) rifle-range and through wood to the Cafd-Restaurant Almhiltte , on the S. slope of the Kramer (p. 52). Beautiful view from the Parapluie , 10 min. to the E. — The Kramer Plateau-Weg, a sliady and generallv level promenade, about 3‘/ 2 M. long, skirting the wooded slope of the Kramer from near the Hotel rionnenbichl (p. 48) and aftording charming views, flnally descends throngh a gorge to the upper Loisach. The ruin of Werdenfels (2585') is reached by a path (guide-post) diverging to the left from the Murnau road, 1 M. from Garmisch, near the Sclaoaig- icang (22i5 r ); tlience to the top in 20 minutes. View obstructed by trees. The Pflegersee (27700, 1 hr. from Garmisch. We ascend the road to the N. via the O er tel-Promenade (finger-post), vvith a view of the valley, and past the Hotel Sonnenbichl (p. 48), to the little Pflegersee at the foot of the Selestoande (to the E., the precipices of the Kramer). We may return via the Kellerleiten to the (1 hr.) Sommerkeller at Garmisch or via the Schloss- Wald and ( 3 /4 hr.) Werdenfels (see above). The Kuhflucht hi-.), entered from (3 M. $ rail. in 10 min.) Farchant (p. 48 j vve cross the Loisach to the Miihldorfl , and ascend to the left tlirough pine-wood), is a ravine, with pretty waterfalls formed by a stream issuing from a fissure, 50 ffc. in length, in a lofty cliff (ascent to the highest fall requires a steady head). A well-sliaded path (red marks) leads from the Miihldorfl to the (2 hrs.) Esterberg Alp (Krottenkopf, p. 52). ''Partnach-Klamm and Vorder-Graseck (IV 2 hr.; guide quite unneces- sary; omn. several limes daily from the railwav station in !/a hr. to the Restaurant Partnachklamm, 1 Ji). After following the Mittenvvald road to the S. of Partenkirchen for a fevv paces, we turn to the right at a finger- post, and in ‘/2 hr. reach the first bridge, at the mouth of the Partnach valley, which may be reached also from the station in 40 min. by a shady path a long the Partnach (finger-posts). Crossing this bridge (to the right the ‘Hohe Weg 1 to the Reintal-Hospiz, p. 51) we pass the b-idge leading to the electricity vvorks and reach the (12 min.) Restaurant Partnachklamm, or Wildenau (with beds), near the second bridge, vvhere the road ends. Beyond the bridge the direct path to Graseck ascends in gentle curves to the left (20 min.), while the path to the ‘Klanim’, or gorge, leads to the right; 6 min., third bridge (shelter-hut). The (10 min.) fourth (iron) bridge (*Klamm-Briicke), 52' long and 225' above the Partnach, is the finest point. Bevond this bridge the path ascends in steps to the (10 min.) forester’s house of Vorder-Graseck (2925'; Restaurant , vvith 5 beds), vvhere a fine vievv of the Wetterstein range is enjoyed. From this point to the Eckbauer , see belovv; to Mittenioald via Elmau , see p. 55. — A narrovv path (Triftsteig), constructed for the use of the ‘lumberers’ and diverging to the left before the third bridge, leads in ‘/4 hr. along the bottom of the gorge, close to the water (vvaterproof advisable). It is provided at places vvith vvire-ropes and is quite safe for those reasonably free from giddiness, vvhile it shortens the vvalk to the Schachen and the Iteintal by 20 min. as compared vvith the path via Graseck. From the end of the gorge vve reach in 5 min. a guide-post, vvhere vve turn to the left and ascend in ‘/.j hr. to Vorder- Graseck (frequent guide-posts). The path to the right at the first guide- post leads to the Reintal and the Schachen (p. 53). The ''Eckbauer (4060'). We may either follovv a rnarked path through the Eselgraben from the Kainzen-Bad in l*/ 2-2 hrs., or take another steep path (also marked; usually sliady in the afternoon) from Graseck (see above), vvhich turns to the left at a O /4 hr.) finger-post on the route to Elmau (p. 55), ascends the grassy slopes ih vvindings, passes through vvood, and reaches the ( 3 /< hr) Eckbauer (now a health-resort in connection vvith the Kainzenbad). Neither path is recommended in wet vveather. The Pavilion (rfmts.) on the top of the liill (2 min.) commands an admirable panorama; belovv lies the deep, vvooded valley of the Ferchenbach. The descent may be made to the N.K. via the village of Wamberg (3335'; *Alm llestaura.nl) to the Mittenwald road, then to the left at the guide-post via Hfifle. to (H /2 hr.) Schlattan (p. 51) and through the Ilascn-Tal and the Brenistall-Wald to ( 3 /4 hr.) Partenkirchen. from Partenkirchen. HOLLENTALKLAMM. Map,p.48.-I. R.9. 51 To the Reintal-Hospiz (3120'; 2V2 hrs.). Path either through the Partnachklamm and tlie Reintal, ascending to the right from (IV2 hr.) the iinger-post in the Wiesele-Graben (see helow) to (V4 hr.) the hospice; or diverging to the right at the opening of the Partnachklamm (V 2 hr. from Partenkirchen) and Crossing the Bohe Weg (steep at the beginning only) to the (lVi hr.) * Reintal-Hospiz (42 beds, pens. 6-8 Jt), commanding a fine view. Excnrsions: by the level Feentveg to the Hinterklamm (p. 54), 3 /.* hr.; to th n Brehmbser HiUie (4225'), 1 lir.; to the Kreuzeck-Haus (see belovv) via the Bernardein-Jagdsteig, hrs.; to the Hochalm (see belovv), 2 3 /4 hrs.; to the Služben Alp (5310'),2 l /2 hrs.; to the Knorr-Iliitte (p. 54), 5 hrs. *Kreuzeck-Haus (5420'; 3 hrs.; guide, 5 Ji , unnecessary), the easiest and most attractive excursion among the lower heights. The route ascends in windings (good club-patb) from the (V2 hr.) Risser-See (p. 49) for the most part through wood, by the Risser M 00 & and past the shooter’s hnt Bei den Trogeln to the Kreuzjoch Sctddle (5180 1 ) and the (8 hrs.) Kreuzeck (5420'), with the Adolf-Zoepprilz-Baus (*Tnn ali the year round, 19 beds and 23 mat- tresses; telephone) and a striking view. This is the starting-point for the ascents of the Alpspitze and Hochblassen. Excellent district for ski-ing. The path then p*i. c ses the royal shooting-hut and leads ronnd the basin of the Bodenlahn-Tal to the (*/2 hr.) Hochalm (5595'), commanding an admirable view of the Alpspitze, Dreitorspitze, and other peaks. — From the Kreu/.- eck-Haus a new club-path ascends past the Hupfleiten-Jocli (5755') and the ruinous cottages belonging to a deserted lead-mine (5010' and 4785') to the (2 1 /* hrs.) HbUental-Hiitte. — The BtiUentorkopf (7055'), a splendid point of view, may be ascended from the Hochalm via the H&llentor (6560') by climbers not subject to giddiness in 1 hr., \vith guide (6 JI). The steep descent from the Hollentor by the Rindenoeg into the Mathaisenkar and to the (l 3 /4 hr.) Hbllental-Bulte sliould not be attempted without a guide (sec below). An easier path descends from the Hochalm or the Kreuzeck-Haus via the Bernadein But (red way-marks) into the Bodenlahn-Tal and to the (IV2 hr.) Reintal-Hospiz (see above). The direct descent from the Kreuzeck into the Bodenlahn-Tal (way-board) is very steep and not to be recommended. ^Hollental-Klanim, 2V2-3 hrs. from Garmisch (there and back day). Omnibus six times daily in a /< hr. (fare 80 pf., from Partenkirchen 1 Ji) via Schmblz to Hammersbach (2535'; Hollental Inn), at the mouth of the Hollen- tal, whieh may be reached by pedestrians also in 1 hr. by a pleasant path diverging to the left at the W. end of Garmisch. From the inn we ascend by a sbady path on the left bank of the Hammersbach, finally in zigzags cut out of the sheer rock v face belovv thfe Stangenvvand (see below), to the (1 hr.) Bbllentalklamm-Hutle (3430'; rfmts.) at the entrancc to the Klanim, where tickets of adm. (50 pf.) are sold. The path through the gorge, built in 1902-7, is protected by railings and quite safe; gnide unnecessary, water- proof desirable. It ascends the Klamm (the lower part also known as Matcklamm) by means of numerous galleries and tunnels, skirting the precipitous rocks by iron bridges, and affording picturesque views of the ca?cades of the Hammersbach. The finest point is belovv the iron Klamm Bridge (see belovv), vvhere the snovv lies in two avalanclies about 330' wide until the height of summer; to the left the Hollentorkopf rises perpendi- cularly to a height of nearly 3300’. From the (1/2 hr.) exit of the Klamm (3810'), beyond vvhich we join the upper path (8 min.; see belovv), we may l>roceed to the HOllental-Anger vvith the ( 3 / 4 hr.) Hollental Club But ( 4535'; Inn, 14 beds and 22 mattresses), in grami environs. The Upper Klammweg , novv seldom used, ascends from Hammersbach, soon becoming steeper, through the Stangenioald to the perpendicular rocks of the Waxenstein , 330 yds. before reaching vvhich vve join the direct path from Ober-Grainau, at a point vvhere another path diverges for the hut at. the entrance to the Hollental (>/4 hr.). The ‘Stangensteig 1 (3 ft. broad; wire-rope and i‘ailings) then skirts the precipice, commanding a fine vievv tovvards the plain, and leads to (l 1 /* hr.) the iron * Klamm Briicke (3630*), 33 yds. in length and 255' above the Hammersbach. A path (out of repair ; not advisable) diverging to 1he lelt liere leads to the miners’’ huts (see above). The path on the right bank proceeds along the gorge to a (20 min.) vvooden bridge (3915’), and to 0 the ( 3 /-i lir.) Hollental Club-Hut (see above). 4* EIBSEE. Excursions 52 I, R.9, — Map , p. 48.

A very iuterest- ing day’s excursion may be made via the Kreuzeck-Haus to the IIollentnl Club-Hut and thence t.hrough the gorge to Haminersbach. ^Aseent of the Zugspitze from the llollental (5-6 hrs , guide 20 Ji), sce p. 55. — From the llollental Club-Hut over the Riffel - Scharte (7090') to (4 hrs.) the Eibsee (see below), by a safe club-patli, not diffioult for experts \vith guide (9 Ji). From Ilammersbach to the Badersre via Ober-Grainau, line route through wood in *j\ hr. 'Badersee (2510'; 5V2 M. from the railvvay-stat.ion ; omnibus several times daily in 1 hr., fare 1 Ji; ene-horse carriage 6, two-liorse 10 JI). Tliis cx- cursion should be combined with that to the Eibsee. The road diverges to the left from that to the Eibsee V2 M. beyond Unter-Grainau (fec below); preferable route for pedestrians via Ober-Grainau (see below). The small, clear, emerald-green lake (adm. 50 pf., charged in the hotel-bill), 1 M. round and 60' deep, framcd with trees, is overshadowed by the huge pre- eigices of the Waxenstein - Kamin. The * Alp en- Hotel iO Pension Badersee (85 beds at 2-3, B. 1, D. 2*/2, pcns. 6-8 Ji ), on its bank, is pleasant for a prolonged stay. A row on the lake should not be omitted (one person 50 pf., two or more 25 pf. each); on a rock below the surface is the copper ligure of a nixie. Wood walks ascend from the lake to the right to the Eibsee road (l-l 1 /* hr.). The ' :, Eibsee (3190'), 6 M. from Garmiscli, at the base of the Zugspitze, is reached by the sunny road (diligenee from Garmisch-Partenkirchen station thrice daily in 2 hrs., returning in V-ji hr.; fare each way V/iJl; one-horse carr. there and back 12 JI) via Schmolz (Aigner, vith garden, \vell spoken of) and Unter-Grainau (2450'; Zur Schonen Aussiclit, pens. from 5 Ji ; Pens. Koppenstadter, 5-6 Ji , well spoken of); or, for pedestrians, by the path to the left at the W. end of Garmisch, which leads across meadows to (4 l /2 M.) Ob er- Grainau (2505'; *Post, bed 1-2, pens. 5-6 Ji), and thence to (l 1 /* hr.) the lake {Terne^s Inn, with veranda and baths, 80 beds from 2, pens. 6-7 Ji). The Eibsee, s /* sij. M. in area and 90' deep (temp. in summer 59-64° Fahr.), has seven small islands and is enclosed by wooded hills, above which tower the enormous rocky walls of the Waxenstein- Kamm aud the Zugspitze. Travellers are rowed (50 pf. each) in 20 min. to the Ludwigs-Insel in the middle of the lake, where the echoes are awakened by a shot (50 pf.). The picturesque little Frillensee , to the S.E. of the Eibsee, may be reached from the inn in 5 min. by boat, or in 8 min. on foot. —From the Eibsee over the Torten (5230') to Ehrtoald (3 hrs.), see p. 55; ascent of the Zugspitze (67*-7 hrs.) via the (4>/2 hrs.) Wiener- Nevstadter Hiltte , see p. 54 (guide 15 Ji). — From the Eibsee to Griesen (p. 58), 2>/ 2 hrs. (uninteresting; not rccommended after rain). The route (red marks) skirts the lake to the right, then ascends to the right, partly through swampy woods, to the ridge of the Miesingberg (3345'), and tinallv descend3 steeplv to the Loisach. Mountain Ascunts (guides, see p. 49). — 'Ihe Wank (5340'; 3V« hrs.; marked path, guide not indispensable) commands an admirablc vievv of the Wetlerstein and Karwendel Mts., the valley of Partenkirchen, etc. The route from Partenkirchen leads via the Lukas Terrasse to the (l 1 /? hr.) Kreut-HiUte (3460'), then steeply through wood, and finally over the ridge to (2>/4 hr?.) the top. The descent may be made to the E. via. the Ameis- berg to the Esterberg-IIof , or S.E. to the (2 hi*s.) Gschwandner Bauer (p. 49). The Kramer (6505'), on the left bank of the Loisach, above Garmisch, atTords a good survey of the Wctterstein range. A bridle-path leads from the Sommerkeller at Garmisch to the (2^2 hrs.) Ktinigsstand (4695'; view). The footpath to the Krainer-Krevz, on the summit (4>/2 hrs. from Garmisch), diverges to the left at a shooter’s hut (guide-board), l ji hr. before the Konigs- stand (guide unnecessary for experts). The Krottenkopf (6845'; 4 hrs.; guide, not indispensable, 5, if a night is spent, 7 Ji; horse to the Krottenkopf Hut 12 Ji). Both from Farchant (p. 48) and from Partenkirchen via St. Anton marked patbs ascend through wood, uniting after 1 hr. and proceeding to the ^/4 hr.) Esterberg Alp 14140'; mediocre rfmts.). Thence through wood between the Bischof (6660’J fromPartenkirchen. SCHACHEN. Map,p.d8 .— 1.11.9. 53 and the Krottenkopf to the (2hrs.)

G&chicandncr Bauer (p. 49). ^Konigshaus ara Schachen (6120'; 5-572 hrs.; guide, 5 JI , not indi - pensable; liorse 12 Ji)- The ascent from Elmau is easier (see below). From Partenkirchen we follow the Triftsteig (p. 50) through the Partnachklamm to the (1 hr.) bridge over tlic Ferchenbach (2625'), the left bank of which we skirt to the (25 min.) SteilenfUlle. The path then ascends rapidly to the right through wood to a small shrine, turns to the left, and crosses a clearing after a few minutes, from vehi cli a path through wood leads to the (1 hr.) royal bridle-path from Elmau (p p. 55, 60). The route next ascends to the right to tlie ( 3 /i hr.) T Vettei'stein Alp (4805'; rfmts.) and past the Schachen Alp , witli the small Schachen-See , to (l 3 /i hr.) the Konigshaus , built by King Louis II. and containing a magnificent Moorisli saloon (adm. 50 pf.; restaurant, \vith 22 beds at 2-27 2 Ji; telephone). The Pavilion , a few hundred paces to the W., on the brink of tke abyss, commands a splendid *View of the Reintal below us, with the Plattach-Ferner, Schnee- fernerkopf, and Wetterspitzen, the llocliblassen and Alpspitze to the right, and (to the S.) the Ober-Reintal and Dreitorspitze. To the N. stretebes the vast Bavarian plain. The Alpine Garden 011 the Schachen affords an intere-ting survey of the flora of the High Alps (adm. 30 pf.). From the Konigshaus a marked path ascends via the Teu/elsgsass (6375'), the Schachenplatle (vvire-ropes), and the (1 l j\ hr.) Frauenalpl to the (V 2 hr.) Meiler-Hiitte, a club-hut (8 mattresses) on the Dreitorspiiz-Galierl ( Tdrl; 7790'), with striking view (ascent of the Dreitorspilze, etc., see b 3 low). A steep path descends through the grand Berglen-Tal and round the O efel e-liopf (8170') to (3 hrs.) Unter-Levtasch or (472 hrs.) Ober-Leutasch (JL 60); aaother descent (with guide) to (2 3 /i hrs.) Ober-Leutasch passc 3 via the SMler Pass and the Puiten Alp. — From Elmau (p. 55) a good bridle-path (driving practicable but not agreeable; mountain- carr. for 2 pers. 20 JI. to be ordered the day before by telephone to the Schachen restaurant) ascends in 3-37* hrs. to the Schachen. — From the Schachen a steep club-path (marked) descends into the Ober-Reinlal (p. 54; D /2 hr. to the Bock-Hiitte, ascent in 272-8 hrs.). The 'Partenkirchener Dreitorspitze (S.W. suminit 8640', central summit 8605', K.E. summit 8550') is liighly interesting and not very difficult for experts (guide 18 Ji, ali tliree summiis 20 JI). Via the Schachen to the (7 hrs.) Meil&)'-Hiltle , see above; thence by a new path (vvire-ropes and steps) in 172 hr. to the S.W. peak. The view is magnificent, particularly of the immediate envirous with the savage Oefele-Kopf, and of the Zug- spitze and the valle.vs of the Loisack and the Isar. — The Leutascher Dreitorspitze ( Karlspitze , 8770') is ascended from the Meiler-Hiitte in 2 hrs. vvith guide (18 Ji, including the tliree Partenkirchener Dreitorspitzen 30 Ji ), or from Leutaseh (p. €0) via the Puiten-Tal and the Plattach in 6 hrs. The view surpasses that from the Partenkirchener Dreitorspitze. A combined escursion over ali these peaks forms one of tke finest and most interesting tours in the d : strict. — The Musterstein (8125'), ascended from tbe Meiler- Hiitte via the Torlspitzen in 27« hrs. with guide, is a difficult but very interesting climb, for experts only. *Alpspitze (8595'; guide 14 Ji), fatiguing but very attraetive. The most interesting route (not very difficult for experts vvith guide) ascends from the Hollental Hiitte (p. 51) through the vvild Matkaisenkar (wire-rope in places) to Ihe (3 l A hrs.) Grieshar-Scharte (7975') and ac.ross the S. arete to the (1 lir.) summit. An easier route. though also only for s'eady keads, ascends from the Kreu/.eck-IIaus (p. 51) via the 7/2 hr.)

Gasscn Alp (47800, and thence (betfer for the descent) past (1 l /-i hr.) the small Stuiben-See (6305') to the (2 hrs.) summit, on which stands an iron cross 23 ft. bigh. — The Hochblassen (8880’), a very difficult ascent, is climbed from tbe Grieskar-Scharte (p. 53) in l-l 1 /^ hr. to the peak with the signal, and thence in 1/2 hr. to the main peak (guide 20 Ji). The 'Zugspitze (9720'), the highest summit of the Bavarian Alps, re- quires 10-11 hrs. from Partenkirchen (to the Knorr-Hiitte 7, thence to the top 3-372 hrs.; guide 15 JI, with descent to Ehrwald 18 Ji l). Ascent laborious, but not difficult for tolerable climbers and very interesting. As on p. 53 to the (1 hr.) bridge over the Ferchenbach (2625'); at the tinger- post we ascend to the right into the Reintal and cross the Partnach three limes*, V 2 hr., at the Wiesele-Graben, fmger-post pointing to the right to the Reintal-Hospiz (p. 51); 2 min. farther on the path crosses the Bodenlahne (the Alpspitze and Hochblassen rise on the right), and then ascends to the right through the monotonous Stuibemoald (tlie Milter-Klamm remaining on the left). After 3 /* hr., at a point vvhere the path again approaches the Partnach, we obtain a fine vievv of^the wild Hinter-Klanim. We now descend to the Partnach, and follovv its left bank to ( z /\ hr.) the Bock-Hiitte (3475'), vvhere the magnificent Hintere Reintal is disclosed to vievv. Then past the Bieben Sprilnge (a copious spring; 3595') to ( 3 A hr.) the Vordere Blaue Gumpe , beautifully situated below the path, to the left. The Blaugumpen-IIiltte (3880'; closed) on a rocky height at the lower end of the lake commands a splendid vievv. The path now ascends betvveen liuge fragmenta of rock, the remains of an old landslip; 72 hr. farther on lies the Hintere Blaue Gumpe (3975'), usually dry in autumn. Farther up the path ascends aeross an extcnsive avalanche track (on the left the imposing Fali of the Partnach ) to the ( 3 A hr.) Anger (4485'), the uppermost part of the valley. The ridge (4495 1 ; 3 4 hr.) commands a fine vievv of the imposing head of the vallev, and, in the opposite direction, of the Blaue Gumpen vvith the pavilion on the Schaclicn high above. On the Untei'e Anger , 8 min. farther on, is the Anger Hut (4480'; Inn, 4 mattresses; telephone). We cross the Partnach higher up and eitlier take the bridle-path to the left, through wood, to the Obere Anger (4735'), or ascend the right bank of the stream to the (10 min.) Partnach- Ur sp rung (4755 1 ), a gorge filled vvith the debris of avalanches, from vvhich the copious brook bursts forth. I 11 the latter čase vve retrace our steps for a fevv paces and ascend to the right to the bridle-path. We then ascend through creeping pines and by a /igzag path on the slope of the Platt to (2 hrs.) the Knorr-Hiitte (6730'; '"Inn, vvith sleeping-house, 16 beds at 3, 20 mattresses at 2 Ji; telephone; good spring vvater), usualJy crovvded 011 Sat. nights. From the club-hut vve ascend (bridle-path) the rockv slope of the Platt to the (H /2 hr.) Platt- Hiltte (8285 1 ), a shelter hut on the margin of the Grosse Schnee-Ferner , vvhere liorses are dismissed. We cross the ntšve in hr., mount a slope of debris (the 1 Sand-Reisse ’) and then by steep rocks (iron pegs and vvire-ropes) to the (>/2 hr.) arete and (to the right: 20-30 min.) the W, Peak (9720'), on vvhich are the Miinchner Haus (9700'; Inn , 18 mattresses at 4 JI; adm. 50 pf.) and a meteorological station. A club-path (double vvire-rope) con- nects the W. vvith the P /4 hr.) E. Peak (9715'), vvhich is marked by a cross 16’ in height. The'Panorama is superb: to the S., the Tauern chain from the Ankogel, the Zillertal, Stubai, and Oetztal Alps, Ortler, Bernina; to the W., Silvretta, Leclital and Allgiiu Alps, Todi, Santis ; to the E. the Kar- vvendel-Gebirge, and the Achcntal and Kilzbuhl Alps as far as the Staufen. A shorter ascent leads from the Eiusee via the Wiener-Neustai>tek Huttk (6V2-7 hrs.; for expert climbers vvith steady heads only; guide 15 Ji). The Torlen route is follovved to O /2 hr.) the finger-post mentioned at p. 55, vvhence a steep and laborious path to the left ascends to the ( 372-4 hrs.) Wiener-Neust&dter Hiitte in the Oesterreichische \Schneekar (7285'; Inn, 25 mattresses); thence a steep and giddy ascent (vvire-rope and footholds) to the (l l /a-2 hrs.) arete and the (20 min.) W. summit. — From Ehrvvalu (p. 44) climbers may either (if free from giddiness; guide 12 X, vvith descent to the Knorr-Hiitte or Eibsee 20 A”.) ascend the ‘Georg-Jager-Steig’ (red marks) to the (3 l /2 hrs.) Wiener-Neustddter Hiitte and as above to the (2 1 /« hrs.) \V. summit; or (longer but easier) they may proceed by the Elmoalder Alp , from Partenkirchen. TORLEN. Map, p. 48. — I. R. 9. 55 the Feldem-Jochl , and tlie Oatterl (see below), to tlie (5 lirs.) Knorr-Hiitte and thence to tlie (3 hrs.) summit. — From the Hollental-Hutte (p. 51) to ihe Zugspitze 5 6 hrs. (guide 20 fr.). This is the most interesting ascent, and since the path has been provided with numerous iron pegs and wire-ropes it is no longer very difflcult for expert climbers wiih steady lieads, unless it is covered with snow. We ascend the steep rocky slopes of the Brettio the Hbllentalkar and thence across the Hollental Glacier 1o the arete and E. summit. The Schneefernerkopf (9435') may be ascended witliout difficulty for adepts from the Knorr-Hiitte (p. 51), in 3 hrs with guide (12 Ji).

The houses of the adjacent Gstattengasse (Pl. C, 3; lift to the Monchsberg, see below) cling to the side of the Monchsberg like swallows’ nests, rvith rooiim and cellars hewn in the conglomerate rock. The Klausentor rvas formerly the termination of this part of the town, lying betrveen the hill and the river. The latter is now bordered by the broad Franz-Josef Quay, planted rvith trees. Be- yond the gate is the iron Vranz-Karl-Brucke (foot-bridge). Above the totvn, on the S.E. point of the Monchsberg, rises the fortress of ^Hohen-Sa.lzburg (1780'), now reached in 2 min. by a Cabue Railway, starting in the Festungsgasse, elose to St. Peter’s Cemetery (Pl. E, 4; fare 60, up and dorvn 80 h.: admission to the fortress and the vierv-torver, incl. guide, 40/i.). Halfway up is the station Monchsberg , adjoining the restaurant Zur Katz (approacli to the Monchsberg, see below). Farther on the train threads a short tunnel below the rvall of the fortress and reaches the upper station in the Hasengraben (restaurant, rvith line vierv). The View Tower (82' high; platform 560' above the town) comniands a splendid panorama. —• The fortress, no\v used as barracks, rvas founded in 1077 under Archbp. Gebhard and extended at different periods; the greaterpart of the presentbuildings and towersdates from 1496-1519. The Church of St. George in the castle-yard, erectcd in 1502, con- tains reliefs of the Trvelve Apostles in red marble. On tlie extexior is a relief commemorating its founder Archbp. Leonhard (d. 1519). The Fiirstenzimmer, restored in 1851, are worth inspection. The Goldene Stube contains a line Gothic stove of 1501. The :|: Monchsberg (1645'), a wooded hill about i l / 2 M. in length, bounding the torvn on the W., may ho reached from the above-mentioned station of Monchsberg. or by means of an electric Lift (200'; fare 40 h., dorvn 20/i., up and dorvn 60 &.), ascending every 10 min. from Gstattengasse 13 (Pl. C, 3) to the top of the plateau ( Restaurant , with fret[uent concerts). The View Tower (20 h.), 360' above the Salzach, eommands a splendid panorama, more picturesque tliough less ertensive than that from the fortress. The view of the torvn, overhung hy the castle, is especially attrac- tive. — Shady paths lead henco to the S. to the Burgencehrsbtler (restaurant), to the Franz Josephs-IIohe (Pl. D, 5), and to the Bichter- Uiihe (1645’), a dne view-point, rvith a monument to the geographer Eduard Richter (d. 1905). Tbe most direct footpath from the town to t.lie Mdncbsberg is by a fligbt of 117 steps near tbe Summer ltiding Seliool (p. 119), tbcn to tbe left by tbe footpatbs to tbe Richter-Hohe, and ilnally to tbe rigbt by anotber flight of 183 steps to tbe Biirgerrvehrsdller (see above). An easy Mirabell-Schloss. SALZBURG, 11. RcuteHl. 121 oarriage-road leads from the suburb of Milila , past the Auffustine Church (Pl. 5; C, 2), to the electiric lift and the Hi. Johann-Schlosschen (Pl. B, C, 3). A third roufce leads from thfe suburb of Nomilil (Zuiu Roten Hahn) throngh the Scharten-Tor (Pl. 1>, 0 ). The E. spur of the bili, helow the fortress, is the Nonnberg (Pl. E, F, 4), so called from a Benedictine nunnerv situated liere. The Gothic Convent Church (founded 1009, restored in the lBth cent.) possesses a line vringed altar with a stained-glass windo\v of the 16th cent. behind it, a crypt with interesting columns, and in the tower ancient frescoes. The cloisters, dating from the end of the llth cent., are the oldest now extant in Germany (no ad- mission). Charming view from the parapet. ■—■ Above the Karolinen- Briicke, on the bank of the Salzach, is the Kunstlerhaus (Pl. F, 4), for eshibitions of art (p. 117). To the S.W. of the suburh of Nonntal is the Cometery (tramway station Kominunal-Friedhof), tvitk an obelisk and severni momunents of artistic interest. The Salzach is crossed in the middle of the town by the iron Franz- Josephs-Brucke or Stadt-Brilcke (Pl. D, 3), 300 ft. long and36ft.broad. In the ‘Platzl’, near the bridge, on the right bank of the Salzach, No. 3, is the Ilouse of Paracelsus (Pl. 30; I), 3), the celebrated physician and empirio(d. 1541), iridicated by his efiigy. ■— In the Makart-Platz, near the Platzl to the N.W., is the 2 'heatre (Pl. 30 ; D, 3), a hand- some rococo building byFellner & Hellmer (1893), opposite vfhich is the house (Pl. 29) occupied by Mozarfs father in 1769-77. The Mirabell-Schloss (Pl. D, 2), erected in 1006 by Archbishop Wolf Dietrich, rebuilt after a lire in 1818, is now the property of the totvn. The staircase is adorned vitli sculptures by Rapli. Donner (1726). The Mirabell-Schloss contains the natural history department of the Museum (p. 119; adm. Sun. 10-1, Wed. 1-4, 40 h.) and (to the right of the entiance) a permanent industrial eshibition (p. 117). Ilehind the Schloss lies the Mirdbell Garden , laid out in the old French fashion, vvith fonntains, marble statues, and an aviary. — Adjoining Schloss Mirabell on the N. is the vreli-kept Stadtpark (Pl. C, 11, 2), containing a Kurhaus and Bath House (restaurant; con- certs, see p. 116), several monuments, and a Panorama (see p. 117). — Near the station is a tasteful marble statue of Empress Elisabeth (Pl. D, 1), by E. Ilellmer (1900). On the right bank of the Salzach below the Stadt-Briicke extends the Elisabeth Quay (Pl. C, D, 3, 2), vvith a numher of villas and the Protestant Church (Pl. 14), a Romanesque building hy Goetz (1867). Above the Stadt-Briicke is the Gisela Quay (Pl. E, F, 3, 4), with a monument to the stadtholder Count Sigismund 2 'kun (d. 1892), by Breuner. Beyond the Karolinen-Brucke is the Fram-Joseph - Park (Pl.

SALZBURG. 1 \lonastery (Pl. 11; E, 3) is reached in 8 min. l)y a ‘Route (le Calvaire’, with 225 steps, or by the Kapuziner-Stiege (Steingasse 9; also with steps). At the top visitors ring at the gate (2/i.) and enter the park. On the left stands the 1 Mozart-IJduschen' (brought from Vienna to its present site), in which Mozart completed his ‘Zauber- flote’ in 1791 (adm. 20 h.). In front is a bronze bust of Mozart by E. Hellmer. We ascend hence through the rvood by about 500 steps more. After V 4 hr. a ilnger-post on the left indicates the way to the ‘Amsicht naeh Bayern\ whence we survey the new town on the right bank and the rail\vay-station in the foreground, to the right Maria-Plain, to the left Miilln, in the centre the Salzach stretchiug far into the plains of Bavaria. About 2 min. farther on another direction-post shows the way (diverging from the straight path to the restaurant) to the (5 min.) l Stadt-Aussicht (1985'), the ftnest point on the Kapuzinerberg (pavilion) : adinirable *View of the town and fortress, the Hochstauffen, Sonntagshorn, Latten-Gebirge, Unters- berg, Schonfeldspitze, Hohe Goli, Pass Lueg, and Tennen-Gebirge. In 5 min. more we reach the Franziszi-Schlosst, or Kapuziner Schlossl (2200'; restaurant). A back gate here (oponed on request) gives on a path rvhich descends to the N.E. to the (20 min.) Gablerbrau Restaurant (Pl. G, 1), in the*Schallmooser Hauptstrasse. Aigen, a chateau and park of Prince Schwarzenberg, at the foot of the Gaisberg, 33 / 4 M. to the S.E. of Salzburg, merits a visit (rail- way-station, see p. 125). At the entrance to the grounds ( 3 / 4 M. from the station) is the Park Hotel d Restaurant (R. 1.20-2, pens. 6-8 K., good), with a shady terrace. Those who are pressed for time may obtain a gnide here (60 h.). The Kanzel is the Unest point. An easy bridle-path leads from Aigen to tlie (IV 2 hr.) Zistel Alp (p. 123', passing through the park, and then. by the waterfall, to the left, through the woods, to the Steintvandtner Farms , \vhere it merges in a cart-road. Another route leads from tlie Kanzel (see above) through fine woods to the hamlet of Gaisberg , whence a path ascends to the left. About. I 1/4 hr. above Aigen is Count Platz’s chateau of St. Jakob am Thurn ( 1700 '), an excellent point of view (*/» hr- from stat. EUbethen , p. 125 ). The chateau is occupied by the curd (^Restaurant, with fine vic\v). From the ‘Aussicht’, 5 min. from the chateau, we enjov a view of the moun- tains and the plain of the Salzach, most pict.uresquely grouped. The Ten¬ nen-Gebirge, the Hohe Goli, Watzmann, Hochkaltcr, Untersberg, and Hoch¬ stauffen are especially conspicuous. In the background lies Salzburg. The *Gaisberg (4220') is the flnest point of view near Salz¬ burg. A Zaiinkadbahn, or rack-and-pinion railway, ascends in summer to the summit from Parsek (1410'), reached from Salzburg hy railway (p. 125) in 7-8 min., or by steam-tramway in 16-20 min. (p. 117). The Hotel Post and Pens. Gaisbergbahn adjoin the station at Parsch; fartlier up, to the right, are Dr. Bretjers Sanalorium and the Obere Kurhaus (p. 116). The ascent or descent by the railway, \vhich is 2 3 / 4 M. in length, with a marimum gradient of 25:100, takes 35-47 min. (fares, up or down 3 K. 50 h., return-ticket, valid for two days, 6 K.; last up tiain about 5 p.m.).

We follow the Ischl road, past the Kapuzinerberg, to (3 l /a M.) Ouggental (Hatschek), whence the Lamberg-Steig y diverging to the right immediateJy behind the inn, ascends in easy vvindings to the (l 1 /^ hr.) summit (fine view). Another path ascends from the Gersberg Alp to the top of tne Nockstein in Z J\ hr. The iraperial chateau of Hellbrunn, 3 M. to the S, of Salzburg, maybereached either by theBerchtesgaden electric tramway (p. 117; station \vith restaurant outside the garden, to the W.; large ^Gar¬ den - Restaurant below tbe castle), or from the Karolinen-Brucke via the Hellbrunner Allde, with its magnificent old trees (carr\>*ges, see p. 117). The garden is open to visitors; tickets for the i;»uerior of the cliateau "ud the water-works 20 h. (automatic macMue at the entrance). The chateau was built By Archbp. Marcus Sit icus in 1613 and is adorned with frescoes by Mascagni and others (^1615). There are also a mechanical tlieatre (with organ and 154 l and fountains in the taste of the 18th century. Tbe flowei-garden is adjoined by the Park (adm. free). Ascending the wood d hill to the right, \ve pass the Monat - Schlbsschen (so called because built in a single month) and arrive at (*/ 4 hr.) the Stadt-Aussicht , commanding a view of Salzburg. Thence through wood to (10 min.) the Watzmann-Aussicht on the other side of the hill, from which the "VVatzmann is seen to great advantage. On our way back we descend to the right, after 5 min., to the ‘stone tlieatre’, hevm in the rock, and return by the drive, skirting the hill to the left. — At tbe station is a large relief-model of the Salzburg Alps (scale 1:3000), sbovving the geological formation (adm. 40 A.). About li/s M. to the S. of Hellbrunn (electric framway, p. 117), is tlie Gothic chateau of Anif (Countess Sopliie Moy), 'vitli a fine park (no ad- mifsion). — From Hellbrunn to the station of Hellbrunn-Glasenbach (p. 125), V 2 hr.; to Aigen (p. 122) a walk of about 50 min. by a eunny road via the Sigmund-Thun Bridge and the Stanzinghof (inn). To tbe S.W. of Salzburg (1 l ft M.) is the chateau of Leopoldskron (comp. Pl. D, 1), witli a tish-pond and Smmming Bath (p. 116; restaurant; rovving and sailing boats). From this point the extensive Leopold skr oner Moos stretches southwards to the base of the Untersberg. On the ‘Tttoofl- 124 II. Route 2/. SALZBURG. Straške’, vvhich traverses tlie mcor to Glaneck, are a group of 200 liouges inhabited by peat-cutters, and the ‘Moos-Bader’ or peat-baths (omnibus, see p. 116). The Ludioigsbad is 1 M. from Leopoldskron, and the Marien- bctd 1 V 2 M. Fiirstenbrunn and Marble Q,uarries. From the station Grodig (p. 100 ; electric-tram\vay in 3 /\ hr.) a path (marked) leads at the foot of the Unters¬ berg, past the (i 1 /* M.) Rosittenicirt , V 2 M. to the S. of the old castle of Olaneck , to the (U /2 M.) Kugelmiihle Inn. Thenee ascending by the falls of the G lan it leads to ( 3 /< M.) the Fiirstenbrunn (1950'), the excellcnt water of which (41° Fahr.) is now conducted to Salzburg. In the vicinity are the Quarries wliick yield the beautiful Untersberg marble (Inn zum Fiirstenbrunn). Visitors to the quarries rcquire a permit from the inanager. To the N. & 1/2 M.), on the right bank of the Salzach, rises the con- spicuous pilgrimage-churcli of Maria-Plain (1845'), erected in 1634. The terrace of the Plaintoirt (good inn) commands a splendid view of Salzburg and the surrounding mountains (evening-light most advantageous). The Untersberg, the most conspicuous mountain in the environs of Salzburg, culminates in the Geiereck (5925'), the Salzburger Hochthron (.6080'), and the Berchtesgadener Hochthron (0470'). The paths are indicated by red marks, so tliat experienced mountaineers may dispense with a guide in good weather (guides, Jos. Havtzinger , Andreas Griinbacher , and Jose/ Starlinger at Salzburg; Jos. Kiilbel at Untersberghaus). — For the Salz¬ burg er Hochthron (5V-2-6 hrs.) a path leads from GrSdig (see above) to the W. to the 0/2 hr.) Rosittenicirt (see above), then to the S. through the wooded Rositten-Tal to (1 hr.) the Loioer Rositten Alp (2655*; deserted), which we may also reach from Grodig by a steep path over the Grtidiger Tbrl (3190'-, l 3 /4 hr). We then ascend to (H/z hr.) the Upper Rositten Alp (4220'; niso deserted). About 10 min. farther on is a finger-post pointing to the left to the ( 3 /1 hr.) Schellenberger Sattel (4700'), wlience we may descend (guide essential) to the left, via the Drachenloch and the Kienberg Alp , to the Berchtesgaden road (to Schellenberg 3 hrs.). — From the above- -mentioned finger-post the path to the right leads to a second \vay-post, pointing (right) via the Koloicrat-Sattel to the (V 2 hr.) Koltmrat-Hohle (4560/V a cavern containing fantastic ice-formations; a tlight of steps in th c^oek, protected by railings, descends to the bottom of the cavern, w»Mch is 200 ft. deep. Proceeding to the left (‘Nach. den Gamslockern «nd < Geiereck’), vve reach (5 min.) a third finger-post indicating the position GamsUfcher , a curious series of grottoes (line view from two openings in the largest, the ‘Halle’), \vhich lie a few paees from the path. Wc novv ascend to the right by the Dopplersteig , boldly hewn in the rocks of the Geiereck (345 yds. long; perfectly safe but requiring a steady head), to the (1 '/4 hr. from the Upper Rositten Alp) Untersberg-Haus (5410'; Inn, open in winter also). We may thenee ascend the Geiereck (5925'; iron cross at the top) in l /v hr. and proceed via the ridge, pas,‘ing the Jung - fern-Jiriinnl , to the (23 min.) ' Salzburger Hochthron (6080'), a magni- licent point of view. — The descent from the Geiereck by Ihe E. arOte (Purtscheller - Steig) to the Schellenberger Sattel (see above) requires an absolutely steady head. Another path to the top of the Geiereck leads from the Rosittenvvirt (see above) to the S.W. through wood to (U /2 hr.) the Firmian Alp (3250'; deserted); then up the Steinerne Stiege and past the Schajleck to the (21/2 hrs.)

Pleasant Stadtpark ; saline baths, witb inbaling room; swiinming baths; small museum with Celtic and Roman antiquities. The salt works produce annually about 200$ tons of salt (adm. 40 ft.). The salt-mines on the Diirnberg (2625'; Sonne; Bergmanmtreu), whence the brine is obtained, are easily reached from Hallein in 3 /4 br. on foot or by carriage (tvvo-borse 8 K. and fee of 2 K.). The route aseends to the left at the (U/4 M.) VVegsclieide Inn (p. 126). The mode of extracting the salt from the earthy matter wit.h \vhieh it is minglcd is deseribed at p. 143. About 2U0 miners are employed here. Tbose who Lave not yet explored a salt-mine may avail tbemselves of this opportunity, and experts will find several points of great interest. — Visitors are admitted to the mineš daily (including Sun. and bolidays); 1 person 6, two or more pers. each 3 K. In summer daily at 3-4 p.m. a ckeap excursion is organized (2 K. each pers.). Gratuities are forbidden, and the proceeds are devoted to oliaritable purposes.

The Schlenken (54iX)') is easily ascended in 4V2hrs. by a marked path via Waidach and Spumberg (Zillreut Inn); or from Hallein direct via Renger- berg (the route via Adnet , with marble-quarriea, is 3 /» hr. longer). A marked path leads from the Schlenken via the Schneide to the (1 hr.) Schmittenstein (5555'), commanding a fine panorama. To Bekchtesgaden (7 M.), a pleasant road, recommended to vvalkers (steep at the beginning and end and not very suitable for driving). The route passes the church and leads to the (25 min.) Wegscheid Inn (1975'; to the left, the route to the Diirnberg). The road here turns to the right, crosses the ( l /2 M.) Aust.rian frontier, and reaches the O/4M.) Bavarian custom-house of Zill (2150'; Inn). We then traverse a hilly plateau (view of the Untersberg to the right), and finally descend rapidly through the ■vvooded Nesseltal-Graben to the (3 M.) Salzburg-Berchtesgaden road (p. 100), reaching it near the station of Reckenberg on the electric tramway (p. 100). — Another road runs from the Diirnberg via Oberau direct to (9 M.)

An easy patli, protected hy railings, leads along the wooded slope of the Kleine Goli to the ('/4 h?-) spot (1900') where the Schioarzbach issues in a copious stream from the rocks and is precipitated through an aperture orer a cliff 200' high, in two vast leaps. The Sehwarzbach is fabled to be one of the outlets of the Konigs-See (p. 105), which lies about 9 M. to the S.W. and 76' higher. The *Salzach-Oefen, 2 M. to the S. of Golling, on the W. side of the highroad to Werfen (one-liorse oarr. in 20 min., 3-4 K.; halfway is the Leopold Hofer Inn ), are curious and picturesque ravines, illled with huge blocks of rock lieaped together in wild confusion, between \vhich the Salzack has forced its passage for upwards of a mile. At the N. and S. e IliraIices to the Oefen are flnger-posts indicating the approach, and not */4 M. apart, whilst the walk through the rocky gorge oocupies */2 h r ' A path leads along the left bank of the Salzach to a point of vietv (‘der Oefen Ende’) commanding the best survev of the Oefen as well as a glimpse of the Salzach-Tal, and to the (t/4 hr.) Kroaten-Bohle , a fortified cave on the slope of the Hagen-Gebirgc, at the entrance of the Pass Lueg. — At the S. entrance to the Oefen is the Maria Brunneck Chapel (see below). The *Pass Lueg, a graud rarine of the Salzach, 6 M. in length, between the Tennen-Gebirge on the E. and the Hagen-Gebirge on the W., forms a fitting portal from the lower to the higher Alps. (It should be traversed on foot or in an open carriage as far as Snlzau, see below; one-horse carr. 9 K!) The pass is frequently men- tioned in the records of the strnggles of 1809, in memory of whieh the Struber Monument tvas ereeted in 1898 near the chapel of Maria-Brunneck (1815'). About 1/4 M. from the chapel are forti- fications constructed in 1836, and M. farther on is the bridge of the Innsbruck railjvay (see p. 153).

Excursions. — The Rudolfs-Turm (2800 r ), occupied by tlic manager of tlie mine, is reaclied by a good zigzag path in 50 min. from the market- place. An inscription hy a bench, halfway np, datedl504, records tli at the mineš were visited in that year by Emp. Maximilian. The bench in front affords a fine view of the lake. Excavations made since 1846 have brought to light an aneient burial-ground in the vicinity. The graves (of which abont 2000 have been opened) are probably those of Celtic salt-miners of tlie 3rd or 4th cent. B. C. Numei*ous relics, especially bronze ornaments, have been discovered. The most important of these are now in the Im- perial Museum at Vienna and in the Museum Francisco-Carolinum at Linz ; but there are also a few in the Hallstatt Museum (see above). — The mining-offices and the entrance to the Hallstatt Salt Mine (3675') are reached in 3/ 4 hr. more. A visit to the interior takes about 1 lir. (comp. p. 143; tickets of adm. at the offices: 1 pers. 3 K. 30, 2 pers. 4 K. 20, 3 pers. 4 K. 80 h.). The descent may be made down tlie Gangsteig (red way-marka; gnide unnecessary) to the (1 hr.) Waldbach-Strub. — Path by the brine-conduit to the (1 hr.) Gosau-Zwang, see p. 150. We ascend to the right by a somewhat steep path bevond the Roman Catholic cemetery (20 min.); or \ve may start from the Rudolfs-Turm. The ^Valdbach-Strub (2060'), in the wooded Echern-Tal , 1 hr. to the S.W. of Hallstatt, is precipitated in three leaps from a height of 305' through a cleft in the rocka. The path leads to the right from the Lahn (see above), passes 0/2 hr.) Croattcfs Inn and the (10 min.) Inn zur Orilnen Wiese, and linally ascends to the right to (20 min.) a point of view opposite the fall. The Schleier Fall , of about equal height, descends into the same abyss. — A picturesque path (‘Malerweg’) leads along the right bank of the Wald- bach from Croatto’s Inn (see above) to the Lahn and back to Hallstatt. A. road leads from the Lahn along the S. bank of the lake through the Ilirschau , passing the Hirschbrunn and the Ressel (two intermittent springs), to WinJcl and (1 hr.) Obertraun (p. 145). About 1 hr. from the Lahn (path diverging to the left from the rout.e to the Kalvarien-Berg) is the Ilirschau Alp , affording the best view of the lake. Mountain Ascents (guides, Franz Unterberger , G. Grili , /o/i., Alois ) /os., and Leop. Seethaler, Franz Fuckne). — From Hallstatt to the Eintere Gosau-Sec (8 hrs.; guide 12/L, convenient), fatiguing but repaying. A red-marked path diverges to the right from the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Reit- weg (p. 150), crosscs the Waldbacli near the waterfall, and ascends via tlie Klaus Alp , Landner Alp , and the Radltal Alp to the Anger-Hiltten and Beerwurzen-8attel , between the Angerkogl and the Beervvurzenkogl. Thence \ve descend to tlie Nasstal-Hiitten and the saddle between the Brettkogel and Hofner, and, more steeply, through the Koglgasse to the lake (p.151). Steingraben-Schneid (or SclineidTcogel , 5055'), path (red marks) via the salt-mine in 3 hrs.; guide (G iT./‘'not indispensable; admirable view of the Dachstein. ■Plassen (6405'), an ascent of 5 hrs. by a blue-marked path via. the salt-mine and the N.E. arete (guide 8 A"., advisable); magnificent view of the Dachstein, the Alps of Salzburg and Styria, and the valleys of the Traun and the Gosau. The descent may be made by the Schreier Alp to (3 hrs.) Gosau. The Hirlatz (6505 1 ) may be ascended via the Wies Alp (p. 150) in 5 hrs. (guide 8 K .), and the Zwolferkogel (6400') iu 5 1 /* hrs. (guide 10 K.). The latter is more difficult and less attractive. The ■‘Sarstein (6470'; 5 hrs.; guide 10 K.) is bcst ascended from Ober¬ traun by tlie ( 27 * 2-3 hrs.)

Krippenstein (6905'; 5 hrs. j guide 10 AT.), an interesting ascent. We ferry to WinJcl and ascend steeply to the Niedere Scha/eclc Alp and the ( 31/4 hrs.) Hohe Scha/eck Alp (4430')• We then proceed through the Krippen- gasse to the ( 3 A hr.) Krippenbvunnen (5085') and the hr.) Krippeneck (5700'), turn sharply to the left, round the Niedere Krippenstein , and reach (V /2 hr.) the summit of the Hohe Krippenstein , which affords an excellent survey of the Hallstatter See and the Dachstein range. Ahout 10 min. to the W. of the Krippeneck lies the Ojaid Alp (5S60'), wkenee a route leads via the Zirbengrvbe and the Taubenkar to the (2 3 A hrs.) Simomj-IIiitte (see below). — To the S. of the Gjaid Alp a patli marked with stakes crosses the limestone plateau ‘Am Stein’ and the Feister - Scharte (7250') to the Eamsau (see p. 569; to Schladming, 6V2-7 hrs., guide 20 K). Hohe Gjaidstein (9140'; 7 J /2 hrs.; guide 18/L), another fine point: ascent from the (4 hrs.) Gjaid Alp (see above) via the Taubenkogel (7545') and Niedere Gjaidstein in 372 hrs. (or from the Simony Kut , see below, in l 3 / 4-2 hrs.). The *Dachstein(9815'), the highest peak but one of the N. Limestone Alps (Parseier Spitze 9965', Zugspitze 9720'), is usuallv ascended from Ilallstatt ( 9-972 hrs.; trying; guide 20, with descent to Gosau 24, to the Austria-Hiitte or IIofpiirgl-Hutte 25 K.). Those who are not vigorous enough to make the whole ascent should, at least, go to the Simony Hut, 572-6 hrs. (guide 8 K., overnight 13 K.). A bridle-path (‘Kaiser Franz Josefs lieitvveg’) ascends from Croatto^s Inn through the Echern-Tal to the (17e hr.) Alte Ker d; it bends to the left here, passes the Tropfuiand and the (D /2 hr.) Tiergarten- Brunnen (rfmts.), and proceeds through the Tiergarten to the ( 3 /i hr.) Tier- garten-Hohe. We then ascend to 1he right, leaving the Wies Alp and tlie Ochsenioies Alp to the left, to the (I 72 hr.) Ochsemvies-IIbhe (6520'; view of the Dachstein) and through the Wildkar to the (1 hr.) Simony Hut (7220'; 'Gnn, bed 4 K. 80, mattress 2 K. 40 A.), on the rnargin of the Karls-Eisfeld or Ilallstatt Glacier. From the hut (steady head henceforth necessarv) we cross the glacier to the ( 2-272 hrs.) arete (8860'; fme view from tile ‘I)achsteinwarte’), ascend to the right (rope and iron pegs) to the top of the Shoulder , proceed high above the ‘Randkluft’ (large. crevasse) to the foot of the peak, and finally mount to the (l-D /2 hr.) summit of the Kohe Dach¬ stein. Superb view, extending to the Schneeberg, Terglou, Canin, Tauern, Stubaier Ferner, and the Bohemian Forest. — Descent to Gosau , see p. 151; to Schladming (more difficult), see p. 569. — From the Simony Hut to the Adamek-Hiltte (p. 151), via the Steiner - Scharte (ca. 11,975') or the Simomj- Scharte (ca. 8695'), ca. 3 hrs. (vvith guide). Descent to the Gosau Glacier, steep and difficult. The Roaj> fkom Hallstatt to Gosau (872 M.; steamer ft-otn Ilallstatt to Gosaumiihle, twice or thiice daily in 25 min., 50 h.; omnibus, see p. 148) skirts the lake to the (272 M.)

A road ascends thence tlirough tlie wood to tlie (% hr.) beautiful green ‘‘'Vordere Gosau-See (2980'), 1 M. long, V4 M. broad, surrounded by vvoods (sinall tavern at the sluice). To tlie S.E., in the background, towers tlie lofty Dachstein rvitli tlie two Gosau Glaciers; to the left the Holie Kreuz, to the right the Tor- stein and Donnerkogel (a splendid picture, hest l>y evening-liglit). Kowing to the S.E. end of the lalte ((/4 hr.; there and hack 1 K. 20 h.), or walking round hy the S. bank (20 min.), we next ascend by a steep and stony path, passing the Gosaulacke (‘tarn’; 3180'), to the (2 hrs.) light-green *Hintere Gosau-See (3790'), about half the size of the Vordere See, grandly and wildly situated. Excuksions (guides. MaUh. Gamsjtiger , Daniel Fasl , Franz Spielb&chUr, Chr. Urstdger , Leopold Wallner , Joh. Gapp). At the upper end of the Iiintere See (ferry, small fee) lies the Iiintere Seehillte.

SL Johann im Pongau (1845') is a large village (1340 inbab.) and frequented summer-resort, 3 / 4 M. from the station, on the moun- tain-slope on the right bank of the Salzach. The road leads straight on from the hridge and then (*/ 4 M.) asconds to the left; a some- what shorter footpath diverges to the left immediately beyond the hridge. Above is a handsome cliurch with two towers. Pretty view from the Rabenlcamel (V 4 hr.). Excursions. — To the Liechtenstein-Klamm (on foot there and back 372 hrs.; one-horsc carr. from the station in 1 hr., there and back, includ- ing a stay of IV 2 hr., 4 K. 40, two-hor.se carr. 7 /f. 20 h.; omnibus via Plankenau to the entrance of the gorge, 1 K. 60 h.). The road diverges to the right 74 M. from the hridge, then crosses the Wagreiner Bach and skirts the hills to the village of (27i M.) Plankenau (plain inn), where it forks. The road straight on ascends tlie wooded vallev of the Grossarlcr Ache, pass- ing the old fourulry of Oberarl; the patli to the left leads through wood, past Oberlechner's Inn and the Liechtensteinklamm Inn , and then either directly or past the Inn zur Bchtinen Aussicht to the O /2 hr.) entrance of the KIamm, where tickets are procured at Scharlner's llestaurant (adm. C0 /i., closed in winterj waterproof advisable; hest light in the morning). The wild rocky gorge, through whicli the Aclie descends in a series of cascades, is one of the fmest in the Eastern Alps. A visit takes */* hr. there and back. The path, hewn in the rock in many places, is 970 yds. in lengtli from the entrance of the gorge to the tunnel, and is perfectly safe, being a yard wide and provided with a railing. At the end of the brst gorge is a huge cauldron with rocky sides, 330' high. The path winds round a project,- ing clifF and enters the second Gorge , only three or four yards wide, and apparently closed overhead. The path crosses the Ache and leads through a tunnel, beyond which the best view of the gully is obtained, to a ,;: Waterfall, 165' in heiglit, at the end of the gorge (950 yds. from the en¬ trance). From tliis point the path (now unattraetive) leads in V 2 hr. to the ‘Bad’, a ruinous hut where the ivarm springs wliich arise close hy were formerlv used by the inhabitant.s of this region. Ilence a path ascends to the left to the Grossarl road and to (l hr.) the Inn zur Liechtensteinklamm- tlbhe. The other path proceeds strsjjght on from the Bad and then ascends n fiteep wall of rock (•Sautersfeig'') to the Grossarl road, which is reached near the Stegenwacht (p. 156); thence to St. Johann, l 1 ^ hr. — A path ‘° the W. of the entrance to the Klamm crosses the liill to (1 hr.) stat. Schicarzach-Sl. Veit (p. 156). The "Hoch-Griindeck (5995') may easily he ascended in 3-3V2 hrs. hy a maik ?A ^ ridle -path. most of which is in shade (guide, unnecessary, 7 K.; mule 14 K.). B.efreshments at the Schurzach-Bauei\ 1 hr. from St. Johann.

Descent (marked path) via the Graferiberg Alp (5580' 5 accommodation) to Wagrein. The Grossarl-Tal (20 M. long), the easternmost of the valleys stretching down froin the Hohe Tauern mountain-chain to the Saizach, is traverscd hy a road (diligence to Grossarl daily in 3 hrs., k K.) passing at a con- siderable elevation above the Liechtenstein-Klamin (pedestrians should go through the Klanim, see p. 155) to the (2 hrs.) Inn zur Liechtensteinklamm- Hdhe (well spoken of), near the delile of Stegenioacht (3610 1 ). Tlience it descends steepiy to the Ache and continues at first on the left and then on the riglit bank to (V/2 hr.) Grossarl (3020'; *Alle Post, kept by Linsinger, 18 B. at 1, pens. 3 K. 00 h.; Neuioirt), a village with 608 inhabitants. Froni Grossarl we may reach Dorf Gastein via the Arltorl (5910') in 5 hrs.

Iliittschlag (3345'} Lederer) and to ( 3 /* hr.) Kardeis (3325'$ inn), at the entrance of the Kardeis Graben , with deserted copper-mines (via the Kardeis Alp and the Tappenkar - Hbhe to the Tappenkar - See, hrs., see below). Tlience via Aschau and past the moutli of the Kreh-Tal (see below) to the (l 1 /* hr.) Seegut (3410*), a shooting-lodge on a small lake, wliere the road ends. We then ascend, to the left, through the Schdder-Tal to the (lV-i hr.) Schoder Alp or Stockham Alp (4595'), below the small and marshy Schdder~See. Here the valley forks. An interesting path (red marks, but guide advisable, 11 K. from lluttschlag) leads lience through the Kulmtal and over the Arl-Scharte (7405') to tlie (4 hrs.) Samer-IJiltte in the Hintere Malta-Tal, and tlience to the riglit to the (H/2 hr.) Osnabrucker Hiitte (p. 610), to the left to the (2 hrs.)

Altenmarkt (p. 571). — Immediately to tlie S. of Wagrein opens the Kleinarl-Tal, tlie -vvesternmost valley of the Niedere Tauern. This valley is traversed by a road leading past (l 3 /4 hr.) Afitler-Kleinarl (3325'; inn) to tlie (l 1 /* hr.) Jdger-See , on vvhich is a shooting- lodge of Baron Imhof. From the Schicabach Alp (3935'), s /i hr. straight on, a bridle-path ascends steeply to the (ld/2 hr.) Tappenkar Alp , on the N.W. side of the beautiful Tappenkar-See (5780 1 ). A fine panorama is obtained from the Tappenkar - Hohe (6560'; to Kardeis , see above). — From the Tappenkar Alp a marked path (guide desirable) crosses to the Lungau. It ascends over grass to the Haslloch (6890'), or head of the pass, to the N. of the Klingspitze (7975'; ascent in 1 hr., recommended), and then de¬ scends abruptly to (1 hr.) the Kdnigs Alp (5415'), in the Itieding- Tal, and to (4 hrs.)

Diverging’ to the left from the Trauner Alp route at (3/ 4 hr.) a finger-post (p. 180), we cross ihe Ache and ascend to the right by a marked path, commanding fine views. The path afterwards turns sharpl.v to the left and leads through the Untere Nas sf c Id to the (2'/2 hrs.) Petcrsbrunnen (6540 1 ), wlience we enjov a superb view of an imposing amphitheatre of snow-clad peaks and glacier,s, from the Brennkogel to the Hochterm. We next ascend through tlie Obere Nassfeld to tlie ( 3 / 4 hr.) Fuscher Tori (7890'), between the Brenn¬ kogel (see belovv) on the right and the Bertjerkogel (8435') on the left, beforc reaching which the Gross-Glockner suddcnly comes into view to the S.W. We now descend to the right to the (35 min.) Fuscher Fislacke (spring), skirt the base of Ihe Brennkogel, and then raount again to the ( 3 / 4 hr.) Mitter-Tbrl (7830'), and over stony slopes to ( 3 / 4 hr.) the Fuscher Wegscheide. (7940'; finger-post), where the path from tlie Rauris comes up on the left (p. 176).

The road to Kaprun orosses tlie Pinzgau railway and passes tlie Bruckberg station (to the right, a monument to Emp. Francis Joseph, with relief-portrait), and then leads aeross the moor to the Mayreinbd Bridge (2485'; inn) over tlie Salzach. It tlien gradually ascends the mountain-slope, passes behind the half- ruined Schloss Kaprun, and descends to ( 61/2 M.) the village of Kaprun (2505'; Zum Kitzsteinhorn , 15 beds at 1-1.20, pens. 6-7 K.; Neuwirt Orgler; Mitteregger ), prettily situated on botli banks of the Kapruner Ache. The road (‘Kaiser-Franz-Joseph-Strasse’) follo\vs the riglit bank of the Ache and \vinds up tlie Birklcogel (3125'), \vhich forms a barrier aeross the valley. Near the heginning of the ascent (lt / 4 M. from Kaprun; iy 4 - i 1 ^ hr.’s dri ve from Zeli) a notice-board 011 the right indicates the patli, 150 yds. in length, leading to the *Sig- mund-Thun-Klamm (adm. 60 h., including the Kessel Fali 1 K. ), a gorge liamed after the late CountThun, Governor of Salzburg (d. 1898). We leave the carriage bere and regain it at the upper en d of the gorge (*/ 4 hr.; umbrellas sliould not he^ forgotten), through \vhich a well-made path leads. At some points this gorge rivals the Liechtenstein-Klamm and the Seisenherg-Klamm. —The road, ascending in windings, crosses the ravine hy means of the ( 6^2 M.) Bilinski Bridge , returns J / 4 M. later to the right bank of the Ache (\vhere the Klamm patli is rejoined), and. leads through the open valley to the ( 9 l /2 M.) Wiistelau (2870').

Tauernhaus ScMssioend (3290'; plain inn at each). Thence we may proceed either by the path through the valley or (shorter and more interesting) through the Schvssioend-Klamml to (l 3 /4 hr.) Mittersill (p. 186). Fiiom 'VVindisch-Mate.ei to the Virgen-Tal. A rougb road leads to (11 M.) Pragraten (horse 10, porter 5 A.). The road crosses tlie Tauernbach and ascends through wood on the left bank of the Isel, via Mitteldorf , to (5 M.) Virgen (3910'; Zum Panzl, plain but good), a village with 300 inhabitants. On the hill to the right is the ruin of Rabenstein (4625'); to the left (S.W.) the Lasorling . The Lasorling (10,160'; 6-7 hrs.; guides, Alois and Jos. Gasser , Paul Tlesingei *, and J oh. Wurnitsch, 14, to St. Jakob 18 K.) is fatiguing, but attract- ive. From ( 8/4 hr.) Welzelach (see below) we proceed to the S. through the Mullitz-Tal to the (2 hrs.) Stadler-Hiitte, on the Rainer Alp (5905'; inn); then round the Rossleiten-Hohe (8600') to the right into the rocky valley of the Olaurat , and over a slope of detritus to the S. base of the peak, which is attained after a laborious ascent of 372-4 hrs. via the S.W. arete. Im- posing view. Descent to St. Jakob over the Prdgrater Tori , see pp. 198, 485. — The Mullitz-Torl , see p. 198. The cart-track to ( 61/4 M.) Pragraten leads on tlie right bank ot' the Isel via f2'4 M.} Welzelach (3670'). The footpath from Virgen by (20 min.) Obermauer (4605'), with its oid pilgrimage-cliurch, running high up on the N. slope, and descending through vvood to (50 min.) Bobojach and (40 min.) Pragraten, is preferable. 3 M.

Mountain Asoents (guides: Thomas Berger, Johann and Joseph Steiner , Anton Kroll , Franz and Andr d Leitner , Andrd Mariacher , Fevd. Kratzer , Jakob Trojer , and Joh. Pichlet'). The Bergerkogel (8715'; 4 hrs. witli guide, 7 K.) oommands a very line view, particularly of tlie Venediger group. We ascend to the S., through the Zopatnitzen-Tal , to the (272 hrs.) Berger See (7135'), and in iy 2 hr. more to the top. — Similar view from the Toinig (8720'; 4 hrs. witli guide, 8 /Q, betwecn the Lasnitz-Tal and the Kleinbach-Tal. The Lasorling (10,160'; 672-7 hrs. with guide, 16 A".) may be ascended from Pragraten by the Prdgrater Tori (difficult,); better from Welzelach and through the Mullitz-Tal (see above). The *Grross-Venediger (12,010'; guide 18, with descent to the Prager Hiitte or Kiirsinger-Htitte 22, to the Warnsdorfer-Hutte 28, to the Hab a cli- Hiitte 30 K .), a most interesting ascent of 8-9 hrs., and not difficult for adepts. We follow the cart-track through the valley to the W. (p. 198) and ascend to the right either at the (V 2 hr.) guide-post beside a crucifix, \vhence a footpath leads to the bridle-path, or at ( 3 / 4 hr.) Einterbichl (4365'), where the bridle-path (guide-boards) into the Kleine Isel-Tal .or Dorfer-Tal begins. Near its mouth tliis valley forms a deep gully; on the left rise the precipices of the Schliisselspitze and the Niklaskopf. Tlie Jslitzbach with its numerous falls remains on the left, and farther on rushes through a -vvild subterranean gorge (the "Gumpach Fali). Near the (2 hrs.) Gumpach-Kreuz (6425') a view is suddenly disclosed of tlie Gross-Venediger, Holie Aderl, Ilainerhorn, and tlie Dorfer, Rainer, and Mullwitz glaciers. Tlien past a herdsman’s hut to 0/2 hr.) the small Johannis-Hiitte , on the Dorfer Alp (6855'; Inn, 6 mattresses). Beyond the hut. we ascend to the right over slopes of turi, detritus. and rock, and skirt the Kapuni z acli-Kopji (9195') towards the right (the Zettalunitz Glacier lies to the right, the extensive Dorfer Glacier below, to the left) to the (272 hrs.)

Passes. From Pragraten to tiie Kursinger-IIutte over the Ober- Sulzbach-Torl (8 krs.; gnide 18, to Neukirclien 24 K.). Froin tke (Skrs.) Johannis-Hiitte (p. 197) vve cross tke gradually-sloping Dorfer Glacier to tke (3 krs.) Ober-Sulzbach-Torl (9600'): admirable view of the ls T . side of tke Venediger group, to tke left the Sonntagskopf and Scklicferspitze, to tke rigkt tke Keeskogel. (The attraetive excursion from Pragraten to tke Tori and back takes 10 krs.; guide 12 IC.) Descent, steep and fatiguing, over the Ober-Sulzbach Glacier , and tken to tke rigkt, above its fall (‘Tiirk- iseke Zeltstadt’), to tke (2 krs.) Riirsing er-Hiitte (p. 188). To THE WaRN 8D0RFER H OTTE BY THE OBER-SULZBACH-ToKL AND KRIMM- ler Torl (9 hrs.; guide 17 K.). From the (6 krs.) Ober-Sulzbach-Torl (see above) we proceed to tlie left aeross tke Ober-Sulzbach Glacier , and below tke Grosse Geiger and the Maurerkeeskopfe, to the (2 hrs.) Gamsspitzl (9500') above the Krimmler Tori , vvkence we descend to tke ( 3 /4 hr.) Warns dorfer Hiitte (p. 193). To the Warnsdorfer Hutte via the Maurer-Torl, vritkout difficulty and kighly attraetive (9 krs.; guide 20 AT.). The : Maurer-Tal, to tke W. of tke Kleine Iscl-Tal (p. 197) and parallel vvitk it, is well wortky of notice. We follow the Isel-Tal as far as (D /4 kr.) Streden (p. 199), cross tke Maurerback, and enter tke valley to the rigkt; 8 min., tke Maurer Alp; cross tke brook to tke O /4 kr.) Goriach Alp (4710'); tken ascend gradually on tke left bank. As soon as tke forest-zone is quitted a beautiful ainphi- tkeatre of snow-mountains and glaciers is disclosed: to the W., tke Malkam- spitze and Gubachspitze, beUveen tkem tke Reggen-Tdrl; N.W., tke Simonyspit.ze; N., tke Maurerkeeskopfe and Grosse Geiger; E., tke Grosse Happ and Kleine Geiger. We next pass (l 3 /4 kr.) a skepkcrd's kut (6405') and ascend tke grass-slopes and moraine-deposits to* tke (D /4 kr.) tongue of tke Maurer Glacier (74S5 1 ). Tke route traverses tke gradually- ascending Maurer Glacier, and finally mounts a rocky slope 100' in height, to the (2 >/2 krs.) Maurer-Torl (10,185'), betvveen the Hintere Maurerkeeskopf (10,880') and tke Grosse Geiger (11,040'; a difiicult ascent from the Maurer Glacier). Tken a walk (lo the left) of 1 kr. aeross tke Ober-Sulzbach Glacier to tke Gamsspitzl and dovvn to tlie ( 3 /4 kr.) Wantsdorfer Hiitte (p. 193). Reggkn-Torl. From tke upper part of tlie Maurer-Tal we ascend to the left, over tke slopes of tke Dellacher Keesflecken , to tke Simony Glacier , and follow tke margin of tke S. arm of tke glacier, steep at places, to the ( 51 / 2-6 krs. from Streden) Reggen-Torl (10,030'), a pass betvveen tke Malham- spitze and the S. Gubachspitze. Fine survey of tke Dreiherrnspitze and tke Umbal Glacier. Gradual descent of 3 hrs. by tke latter to tke Klara-Hiitte in tke Umbal-Tal (p. 199). Those bound for Prettau may go direct from the Reggen-Tdrl to the (D /2 kr.) Hintere Umbal-Tori (p. 200) and tke (D /2 kr.) Lenkjochl-Hiitte (p. 483; guide to Kasern 18 K). Tke Defereggen-Tal may be reacked from Pragraten by tke Defer- egger Tori , tke Prdgrater Tori , or tke Bachlenke. Tke path (mnrked) to tke first (uninteresting; to St. Jakob 8 krs.; guide US K.) ascends from (1 kr.) Welzelach (p. 197) to the S. tkrougk tke Mullitz-Tal to tke (2 krs.) Stadler - Hiitte (p. 197) and along tke S.E. base of tke Lasorling (p. 197). It tken turns to tke left, crosses tke brook, and ascends abruptly to tke ( 2 l /2 hrs.) Deferegger Tori or Mullitz-Torl (8585'), vvkence vve obtain a view of tke Venediger behind us. Descent to tke rigkt into tke vvooded Froditz- Tal, to (2 krs.) Bruggen and (1 lir.) St. Jakob (p. 485). — From Pragraten to St. Jakob over the Pržigrater Tori (9240'), 8 krs. (guide 15 A'.), fatiguing. We ascend tke Lasnitzen- Tal by a marked patk to the (5 hrs.) pass, S.W. of tke Lasorling , wkioh may be scaled hence by experts in 2 hrs. (see p. 197); descent into the TSgisch- Tal and to (3 krs.) St. Jakob (p. 4S5). — Tke route over the Bachlenke is finer (8 hrs.; marked patk; to Frdgr at en. TJMBAL-TAL. Map , p. 196. — 11. R.37. 199 guide, not indispensable, 15 K.). From Pragraten \ve ascend the valley to the (IV 2 lir.) Pebell Alp (see below), above which we tura to the left, cross the Isel, and mount through the picturesque Orossbach- Tal , with its waterfalls, to the Lowcr Alp. Thence a steep ascent (on the left a fine W at.erfall) to the Upper Alp , and over slopes of turf and ddbris to the (3 l /s hrs.) Bachlenke (or Trojcr-Torl; 8575'), between the Gdsleswand and the Graue \Vand. Shortly before reaching the top of the pass we enjov a bcautiful retrospect of the Venediger and Dreiherrnspitze. We descend, at first turn- ing to the right and passing the small Bodensee on the left, into the upper Trojeralm- Tal (on the left the Alplesspitze and Seespitze), follow the steep grassy slopes on the left side of the valley (path soon improving) to the Upper and Lotoer Troj er Alp (5960'), and traverse the picturesque and narrow valley to (3 hrs.) St. Jakob. The path to the Umbal-Tal, or highest region of the Isel-Tal (from Pragraten to the Klara-Hiitte 4 hrs.; guide, unnecessary for adepts, 7 K.') leads past the Bichl , Crossing the Islitzbach (p. 197) at the houses of ( 3 / 4 lir.) Hinterbichl , to (25 min.) Streden (4605')? the last farm, at the mouth of the Maurer-Tal (p. 198; in the background rise the Maurerkeeskopfe). At the Pebell Alp (4975'), V 2 hr. farther on, the path crosses the Isel (to the left the fall of the Kleinbach , 330 ft. high; 10 min. farther on the beautiful fall of the Orossbach , see above). A steeper ascent, through wood, passing a fine fall of the Isel on the left, brings us to a liigher region of the valley. After 1 hr. we cross the Isel by the Lessensleg (6120') and follow a narrovv path on the steep grassy slopes of the left bank, passing a (V 2 h*-) stone hut (6245'). To the left opens the Daber-Tal (p. 200), at the head of which rise the Toten- karspitze and the Panargenspitze, with their glacier; facing us is the Rotspitze. The path novv crosses a rocky barrier to the ( 3 / 4 hr.) Klara-Hiitte of the Prague Alpine Club (6900'; Irm, 3 beds at 5, and 10 mattresses at 2 K.; adm. during the day 40 Ji.). About % hr- liigher the magniflcent Umbal Glacier (not visihle from the hut) descends into the valley. Modntain Ascknts (guides’ tariff from Pragraten, see p. 197). The Dreiherrnspitze (11,500'; 572-6 hrs.; guide 22 K.) is fatiguing, and fit only for experienced mountaineers. We first cross the lower and near]y level part of the Umbal Glacier (P /2 hr.), tlien ascend the grassy and rocky slopes of the Schlaitner Keesflecken to the upper region of the glacier, and cross the latter to the right, below the Althaus - BchneVde. Lastly a steep ascent to a rock projecting towards the S.W., which we mount (with caution owing to its friable nature) to a snowy plateau immediately below the suramit, whence we reach the top bv traversing a snowy arete. The descent may be made by the Ilintere Umbal-Torl t,o the Lenkjdchl-IIutle and to Ka&ern (p. 483; guide 24 or 28 A”.), or by the crevassed Lahner Glacier to the Birn- lucken-HUUe (p. 193). The ■“Rotspitze (T Velitz; 11,470'; 5-6 hrs.; guide 18, with descent to the Lenkjochl-Ilutte 24, to Kasern or Jagdhaus 26 K.) } is also toilsome. The Isel is crossed to the W. of the Klara-Hiitte, and the steep grassy slopes are ascended in zigzags, the end of the IVelitz Glacier being avoided by keeping to the left. The ndve of the glacier is tlien ascended (rather steep) in the direction of the gap bctween the Daberspitze and the Rotspitze, before reaching wliich we ascend to the right across the S. arSte to the broad rocky summit. — Descent across the N.W. arete (wire-ropes) and the Rot Glacier to the (2 hrs.) Lenkjochl - Hiitte (p. 483), or to Ihe S.W. across the Welitz-Scharle (10,545') and the Sc/ncarzach Glacier to the ( 3 ! /2 hrs.) Jagdhaus Alp (see p. 481; for experts only). 200 II, R. 37. — Mar, P■ >96. UMBAL-TOEL. The Simonyspitze (W. peak, 11,445'*, 5-6 hrs.; guide^24. with desceut to the Warnsdorfer Hiitte 30 IT.): tlie Malhamspitze (11,065'; 4-5 hrs.; guide 16, with descent to Kasern 26 A.), and the Daberspitze ( Ilohe Saule, 11,180'; 6-7 hrs.; guide 22, with descent to the Jagdhaus Alp 28 K.) may also be ascended from the Klara-Hiitte. Passes. Over the Umbal-Torl to Kasern, 6 hrs., a remarkably fine route, somevvhat trying (guide 15, to the Lenkjochl-Hutte 12, to the Birn- liicken-Hiitte IG, to the Neu-Gersdorfer Hiitte 18 K.), From the Klara-Hiitte we ascend the Umbal-Tal for about a/ 4 hr., then (finger-post) turn to the left and traverse the Umbal Glacier ( l /‘2- 3 /4 hr.), the first part only being some- what steep. On the W. side of the glacier we ascend abruptly over debris and rock and finally over snow to the (2 hrs.) Vordere Umbal-T6rl (9605'), to the S. of the Ahrner-Kopf (10,010'*, ascended from the Tori in 25min.; repay- ing). During the \vhole ascent we enjoy magnilicent views of the Umbal Glacier, the Dreiherrnspitze, Simonyspitze, Gubachspitze, and Malham- spit.ze; from the top the long chain of the Zillertal Alps becomes visible to the W. Descent by the Windtal to Kasern (2 l /a hrs.), see p. 488; or, better, over debris and the crevassed Windtal Glacier to the (D/4 hr.) LenkjSchl-Hiitte (p. 483). — The passage of the Hintere Umbal-Torl (9350') also is free from danger, and presents no difficulty when the snow is in good condition (guide to Kasern 15, to the Birnliicken-Hiitte 16 K.). We cross the Umbal Glacier and ascend a snowy slope. between the Schlaitner Keesflecken and the Ahrner-Kopf , to the (2 ! /2 hrs.) Tori. Descent by the IVindtal , at first steep, to (3 hrs.) Kasern (p. 483), or (preferable) to the left across the Rot Glacier to the (2 hrs.) Lenkjochl-Hiitte (p. 483). Travellers bound for Krimml proceed from the Hintere Umbal-Torl via the Althaus- Schneide and the Lahner Glacier direct. to the Birnliicken-Hiitte (p. 193). Laborious routes (for experts only; guide 16 K.) lead through the wild Daber-Tal (p. 199) and over the Rotenmann - Tori (9830'), betvveen the Rotenmannspitze (10,090') and the Totenkarspitze (10,230'), to the (5 hrs. from the Klara-Hiitte) Seebach Alp (p. 486), or over the Schivarze Tori (9650'), to the N., betvveen the Rotenmannspitze and the Tdrlspitze (10,015'), to the Schicarzach-Tal and the (5 hrs.) Jagdhaus Alp (p. 481). 38. Erom Windisch-Matrei to Kals and Heiligenblut. To Kals from Windisch-Matrei the most attractive route is by the Kals-Matreier Tori (bridle-path, to the Tori 3-3Va, to Kals 0-0V2 hrs.; guide 9 K., uneecessarvhorse to the Tori 12 K.). — From Lienz to Kals, 7 hrs.; road as far as Huben (p. 194); then a bridle-path through the Kaiser Tal (p. 194). — From TJttendorf in the Pinzgau to Kals over the Kals-Stubacher Tauern , 12 hrs., an interesting route (better in two days, with a night. at the Rudolfs-Hiitte, see p. 185; guide 22 KI). — From I-Ieiligenhlut to Kals by the Berger-Tovl, 7 ! /a hrs. (see p. 204). Windisch-Matrei (3200'), see p. 194. Passing the post-offlce we ascend the pilgrimage-path, go straight past the (20 min.) chapel, and a cross, and ascend to the riglit at the (1/4 hr.) liouses of Klaunz. Farther on we pass (40 min.) a guide-post and continne to ascend, through wood and past a small chapel, lceeping ahove the gorge of the Brettenoand-Bach. In 40 min. we cross the OoldriedbacM and in 25 min. more emerge from the wood. The path hecomes steeper and ascends to the right over turf, crosses the hrook twice (ahove, the inn at the Tori comes in sight), and mounts in zigzags, partly through wood, to (1 hr.; 3-34/2 lirs. from Windisch-Matrei) the *Kals-Matreier Tori (7235'; plain inn). Splendid view of the Venediger, Glockner, and Schoher groups (comp. the annexed Panorama). KAIjS-MATREIER TORL. Map,p. 196. — II.R.38. 201 PANORAMA vomEALSER, THORL ( 2206 m). From W.~Matrei 202 II.

(guide unnecessary). — Ascent of the Rottenkogcl (9055'; red way-marks), in 2 l /z hrs., see p. 195. The path to ('l 3 / 4 lir.) Kals descends towards the left and then leads through wood. At the bottom of the valley, avoiding the path to the left \vhich leads first to the Grossdorf , a Circuit of l / 4 hr., we hold to the right straight towards the church at the lower (S.) end of Kals (better enquire about the way before leaving the Tori). Then, descending to the Kaiser Bach , we cross the bridge, and descend along the left bank either to the right to the GIocknerwirfc, or ascend to the left to the Oberwirt. Kals (4335'; Glocknerwirt Johann Groder , 30 beds at 1 K. 60 /t., plain but good, with the interesting ‘Glocknerbuch’, containing accounts of early ascents from Kals; Oberwirt l Zum Alpenverein\ 30 beds ati A. 80/t.), a village of 1046 inliab., pleasantly situated in a broad basin, is a good starting-point for expeditions among the Glockner group. Guides: Andr d Hutter , Johann and Alois Kerer , Joh. Unterweger , Jose/ and Joh. Groder, Itup. Entstrasser , Rup. Eiger , Peter Bchneider , Paul and Stefan Schnell , Veit Oberlohr , and Peter Seeber. An extra charge of 3 K. is made when a nigkt is spent in the Krzherzog-Johann-Hutte on the Adlers- ruhe, and of 4 K. when a night is spent in the Glocknerhaus on the Elisabethrulie, the Ilaritzer-Haus, or the Rudolfs-Hiitte. The ascent of the *Gross-Glockner (12,460'; to the Stiidl-Hiitte hy a marked bridle-path 4-47a hrs., to the top 372-4 hrs. more; guide 21, rvith descent by the Hofmannsrveg to the Glocknerhaus 30 K.) fromKals is shorter and less difficult than that from Heiligen- blut (p. 208), but is rec ommended to experts only. A hridle-track leads past the church and ascends the Kiidnitz-Tal to the farms of (1 hr. 10 min.) Groder (5640'), vrhere rve take to the left. In 25 min. rve cross the Kodnitzbach (guide-board indicating the route to the right to the Berger-Torl, p. 204). Beyond the (40 min.) Jorgen-Hutte (6425') a club-patk (leaving the Luckner-Hiitte on tho right, see p. 203) ascends the slope of the Freiuiand to the (27 ž hrs.) Stiidl- Hiitte, on the Vanitscharte (9195'), erected hy Hr. Studi of Prague in 1868 and suhsequently enlarged [Inn, 7 bedi at 4, and 15 mat- tresses at 2 A.). Fine view of the AmpezzoDolomites to the S.W., beyond tbe Kaiser Tori. If rve ascend the Freiivand to the S. for a short distance, rve obtain a view of the peak of the Glockner to the N., apparently quite near; to tho N.E. are the Kodnitz Glacier and the Adlersruhe; to the W. is theTeischnitz-Tal, rvith the Teisclinitz Glacier. ■— From the Stiidl-Hiitte there are trvo routes to the sum- mit. The old route (‘Alte Kaiser Weg’) ascends to the N., over de'bris, to the Teisclinitz Glacier, crosses the ridge of the Luisengrat to the Kodnitz Glacier, and ascends the latter, rvhich becomes steep torvards the end, to the (274 hrs.) Erzherzog-Johaiiii-Hutte on the Adlersruhe (11,365'; Inn, 70 mattresses at 4 77.), commanding a magnlflceut vierv. Ascent from the Adlersruhe, over snow and rock, to Heiligeriblut. KALS.

On tke N.W. sicle of this peak we descend steeply about 25-35' (facilitated by iron pegs and a vvire-rope) to tke Obere Glockner-Scharte , a skarp snow ridge, about 30' long and 1-2' vvide, betvveen tke Little and tke Great Glockner (descending to a deptk of about 4300' on tke rigkt to the Pasterze, and of 2600' on the left to the Kodnitz Glad er), tke pabsage of which requires a steady kead,but is facilitated by -\viie- ropes. Lastly a steep ascent over rock (wire-rope and pegs, useless vvhen muck fresk snow lias fallen) to tke summit of tke Gross- Glockner (25 min. from the Klein-Glockner). — On the summit are a vvooden pyramid, used in 1879 in connection vviththe measurement of latitude, and an iron cross about 8 ' higk, erected by tke Austrian Alpine Club. The iew is almost unrivalled in extent and magni- tlcence (panorama in tke Studl-Hiitte). Towards tke W. it extends to tke Khaetikon ckain and tke Silvretta; on tke S.AV., to tke Bernina and Adomello; S., to tke Adriatic Sca, \vhiek is sometimes visible as a brigkt streak on tke horizon; S.E., tke Terglou; E., tke Carpa- thians; N.E., tke Moravian and Bohemian Mts.; N., tlie Bavarian plain, as far as Katisbon. The ‘Neue Kaiser Weg’ or Stiidlvveg, the most interesting ascent for adepts (guide 24 A ,• clinibing-irons neeessary,1hick wollen gloves advisable), ascends the Luisengrat( p. 202), between the Teischnitz and Kodnitz Glaciers , with the aid of wire-ropes and iron slanchions attached to the rocks (to the top 3-3‘A hrs.). This route avoids the Klein-Glockner and the Scliarte, but is impossible in certain States of the snow and is fit only for experienced climbers \vith steady heads. Another route, the ‘Neueste Kaiser Weg’ or Miirztaler Steig (for climbers with steady heads only) ascends the Kodnitz-Tal from the (1 hr. 10 min.) Groder (p. 20‘2), crosses the stream above the Jorgen-Hiitte (p. 202), and reaches (PAhr.) the Luckner-Hiltte (7375' $ accommodation, 4 beds). Ilencc we ascend to the rigkt by the ‘Miirztaler Steig’, on the slope of the Lange Wand and the Blaue Kopfe (wire-rope and iron pegs), kigh above the Kodnitz Glacier, to (3V2-4 hrs. • directbut very steep) the Erzherzog-Johann-Hiitte{g. 202).

The Hofmannsweg is much more interesting than this, but should be attempted only by experts and only vvhen the snow is in a favourable condition (b 1 ^ - ^ hrs. from the Franz -Josef-Hans; guide from the Glockner-Haus22, with descent to tlieStudl-Hiitte26, to Kals 30 /C). From the Franz-Josef-Haus (p. 207) we descend by a narrow path to the Pasterze Glacier and in 8/4 hr. cross it diagonally to the club-path \vhich ascends through the Ae,imere Glocknerkcir and ovor the crevassed Acussere Glocknerkctr Glacier in the direction of the Hohemvart- Schartc, and thence to the riglit below the arete to the (3 1 / 2 -A hrs.) Erzlierzog-Johann-Hiitte (p. 2021. The Sandkopf (10,1.20'), easily aseended in 5 lirs. from Heiligenblut (guide 14 K .), is a fine point of view. From the Fleiss Inn (p. 206) we ascend across the pastures of the Monchsberg (edelweiss), passing two crosses (7925' and 9035'). The last part of the aseent is ovor debris and rock. — The Brennkogel ("9910'), ascended through the Guttctl in 5 hrs. (gnide 12, to Ferleiten 23 JT.), is fatiguing but interesting (easier from the Heiligen- bluter Tauorn, see p. 18L). Passes. From the Glockner-Haus to Ferleiten over the P/ctn dl-Scharte 5 x / 2-6 hrs., to the Trauner Alp 4-4* /z hrs. (guide to Ferleiten 14, from Heiligen¬ blut 16, includingthe Franz-.Tosefs-Hohe 19 K.; not indispensable for adepts). The pass is much easier in this direction than from Ferleiten (p. 180). llorse from the Glockner-Haus to the glacier 7 1\. — Over the Bockkar-ScTiarte and the Hohe Gang to the Mainzer Hiitte and Ferleiten , 9-10 hrs. from the Glockner-Haus (guide 19 A".), a grnnd glacier - expedition, not difficult for the moderately expert; see pp. 181, 180. From the Glcckner-Haus to Kals over the Berger- Turi (7 hrs., guide 13/i .; from Heiligenblut direct 8 hrs., guide 14 K.)-, see p. 204. Over the Iviffltor to tiie Moserhoden (8-9 hrs. from the Frauz-Josef- Haus; guide 23, from Heiligenblut 327f.), very attraetive and not difiioult for adepts. The RifHtor (10,220'), between tlie Jlohe Iliffl (10,980') and the Vordere Bar .kop/ (10,705' $ easily ascended in 1/2 hr.), is reaclied in 5 hrs. (2 hrs. from tlie Oberwalder-Hiitte) via, the upper Pastor/.e Glacier. Descent (kceping to the right) across the Karlingcr Glacier (not much crevassed in its upper p~rt$ comp. p. 184) to the (3 hrs.) Moscrbodeit, Hotel (p. 183). Over the4)b: re Okden^vinkel-Sciiakte to the Rudolfs-Hdttb (10 hrs. from the Fran/, - Josef-Haus; guide 23 /C.), rather difficult. The route to the Riffltor (see above) is follovved as lar as the middle of the upper Pas¬ terze basin. H , : h we turn to the left and ascend to the Obere Oedenwinkel- Scharte (10,yd0'), \vhich Jies bctween the Hohe Riffl and the Johannisberg (both ascenued liencc, see p. 208). The descent to the Oedemcinkel Glacier and the Rudolf s- Hiitte (p. 185) is precipitous and difficult. — The TJntere Oedenwinkel-Schart.e (10,480'), between the .lohannisherg and the Eiskogele, is very difficult find dangerous on account of falling stones.

From Heiligenblut over the Heiligenbluter Hochtor to Ferleiten or Rauris (8-9 hrs.; gnide 16 or 19 K., not indispensable), see p. 181. Over the Sonnblick to Kolm-Saigurn (Rauris), 10 hrs. (guide 22 A'.), not difiicult for experts. From Heiligenblut to ( 3 /4 lir.) the Fleiss Inn, see p. 206. A bridle-path ascends hence on the right bank of the Fleisstal , which 0A hr. farther) divides into the Grosse Fleisstal to the H. and Ike Kleine Fleisstal to the E. We ascend the latter to the (3 hrs.) Seebichl-Haus (8085'; Inn , 9 beds), near the Zirm-See (8200'), a small lake in a rocky basin at the foot of the Goldzechkopf (10,015’). The Gjaidtrog-Hohe (9790'), between the Kleine and the Grosse Fleiss, is easily ascended from this point in 2 hrs. and affords a fine view of the Gloclcner and Goldberg groups. — From the Seebichl-Haus we may ascend to the S.E. via the Seebichl and across the Kleine Fleiss Glacier , latterly climbing a steep slope to the (2V-2 hrs.) Kleine Fleiss- Scharte (9775') and across the arete to the left to the (V2 hr.) Zittel-Haus on the top of the Sonnblick (10,180' 5 p. 177). The descent is made by the Vogelmaier- Ochsenkar Glacier and past the Rojacher Hitite to the Neubau and (3V-2 hrs.) Kolm-Saigurn (p. 176). or from the Neubau via the Riffel-Scharte to (4 hrs.) the Nassfeld (p. 171; guide from Heiligen¬ blut via the Sonnblick and the Riffelscharte to Bockstein 32 AT.). A longer and more fatiguing but for experts highly attractive route leads from tlie Sonnblick by the Herzog Ernst (9630') and the Scharec/c (10,275') to the (6-7 hrs.) Nassfeld-Haus (comp. pp. 171, 176; guide to Bockstein 36 K.). Over the Goldzecii-Scharte to Kolm-Saigurn, 872-9 hrs. (guide 22 A".), for adepts only. From (4 hrs.) the Seebichl-Haus (see above) we ascend the S.E. bank of the Zirm-See, then across ice and rock to a. dcserted miners’ house and to the (l 1 /* hr.) G-oldzech - Scharte (9220’), lying between the Hocharn on the Hi and the Goldzechkopf on the S. [From the pass to the summit of the Hocharn or Hochnarr (10,690'), an easy ascent of IV2 hr. (from Heiligenblut 6 hrs.; guide 3 K. extra); view magnificent. To the S. a fatiguing .route leads round the Goldzechkopf and across the Kleine Fleiss- Scharte to the (2 hrs.) top of the Sonnblick (p. 177).] We descend from the pass over the Hocharn Glacier (sometimes much crevassed) to (3 hrs.)

The roadcrosses the Brixentaler Ache near the Grattenbergl , runs along the right bank (opposite is the railway, with the SblL-Leulcental station, p. 228), and ascends to the N.E., in view of Schloss ltter (p. 228), to the low saddle separating the Solland , or valley of 8511, from the Achen-Tal. To the N. W. rise the Juflnger-Jochl and the two Bolven. — 6 M. Soli (2305'; Post; Feldwebel; Egger ). Ascent of the Hohe Salve (3-3 l /2 hrs.), see p. 228. The Kleine Bolf (5120') may be ascended hence in 2 l / ž hrs. (at- tractive; comp. p. 210). Leaving Scheffau to the left, we next reach ( 3 M.) the Blaiken Inn. From the Blaiken Inn a marked path leads via Scheffau (2355'; rustic inns) to (1 hr.) Barnstatt (3030'; inn), l /* ln\ from the K. end of the Hinter- stein Lake (p. 217; thence bv the Steinerne Stiege to Kufstein , 3 hrs ). The Scheffauer (7365'; 372hrs. ; guide 6 K.), th e Sonneck (7410'; 472 hrs.; 9 A'.), and the Treffauer (7560'; 5 hrs.; 10 A'.) mav be ascended from Barnstatt by adepts (see below). From barnstatt to the Grutten-Hiitte (see below), 4hrs. (guide 6 A - .). 11 M. Ellmau (2665'; 850 inhab.; *Post; HochfUzer ; Lobenwein ) is prettily situated at the foot of the Wilde Kaiser. The Kaiser-Gebirge consists of two ranges separated by the Kaiser-Tal and the Kaiserbach-Tal (p. 216): the N. chain is the Hintere Kaiser , while the S. chain, at the base of which our road runs, is called the Vordere or Wilde Kaiser. The latter and higher chain culminates in the Ellrnauer Hall , Treffauer , Sonneck , Karlspitzen , Ackerlspitze , and Maukspitze. Most of these peaks are difficult and should not be attempted except by adepts, but the ascents from this side are n ow facilitated by the erection of two club-hats, the Ga ideamus-Hiitte and the Grutten - Hiitte (guides, Jose/ Schlechter of Ellmau. Ge>rg Hochfil z er and Seb. Klausner of Going, Jak. Brunner and Joh. Rothart of rit. Johann; comp. also p. 214). — From Gllmau a good path ascends to the N. via the (l 1 ,4 hr.) Wochenbrunner Alp (3555’) to the ( 3 /^ hr.) Gaudeamus-Hiitte (416)'; Inn in summer, 14 mattresses), ereeted by the Berlin Alpine Club in the Kubel-Kar and affording a beautiful view of the Tauern. This hnt is the starting-point for the ascents of the Ellrnauer Hall (76J0'; 372-4 hrs.; guide 7, wirh descent to Hinter-Barenbad 11 A.), the Vordere and Hintere Karlspiize (7505' and 7530'; guide 12 K. each, 15 for both together, to Hmiei*-Barenbad 15 and 19 A'.), the Vordere Goinger Ilaltspitze (7365'; guide 7, with descent to the Griesner Alp via the Steinerne Rinne 12 AT.), the Torlspitzen (7225'), the Ackerlspitze (766 >'), and ilie Mauk¬ spitze (7305'), and for the passes over the Kop/tori or the Rote Rinn-Scharte to Hinter-Bdrenbad fp.216; guide 8 A.) and over the Ellrnauer Tor (6425') or the Kleine Tbrl (6925') to the Griesner Alp (p. 216; guide 8 A.). About 27 ž- 3 hrs. to the N.W. of Kllmau (aseending to the left from the Wochenbrunner Alp, see above; gnide 4 A.; steeper marked path from the Gaudeamus-Hu'tc Ihrough ihe Klammerl in 3 /» lir.) is the Grutten-Hiitte of the Munich Alpine Club (5225'; lun, 5 beds and 16 mattresses), finely situated near the Gruttenbriindl (good spring), whence experts mav ascend the Treffauer T7560'; 4 hrs.; guide 10, to Hinterstein 12 A.), the Ellrnauer Ilalt- (769 : .)'; via the Oamsdnger and the Achselrinne in 2‘/2-3 hrs., see p 216), the Sonneck (7U0 1 ; 4 hrs.; guide 12, to Hinter-Barenbad 15 A".), Ihe Vordere and Hintere Karlspitze(lp05' and 7530'), the Hintere Goinger Ilalt (7200'; marked path, easy and interesting), ihe Vordere Goinger Ilalt (73.i5'), the Torlspitzen , etc. — From Kufstein the shortest routo to the Grutten-Hiitte leads via the Hinterstein Lake (p. 217): to Barnstatt 3 hrs , ihence to the Grutten (marked path) 4-472 brs. — Passes: over the Kopftbrl (6725') and the Hohe Winkcl (marked path) to (3 hrs.)

Golng (2400 : ; Schnabl; Schlechter ), a village with 750 inhabitants. — About ^3 M. farther 011 is the Stangl Inn. To the riglit is a lane leading via the Rohrerbiibel (once an important silver-mine) to (2V4 M.) Oberndorf (p. 232) and (6 M.) Kitzbiihel. A more interesting walk may be taken along the ‘Romer-Weg’ throngh the Biihlach (p. 23 ) to (272 hrs.) the Sclvcarzsee (p. 230), via (he Reltenberg (28307 ^ ne view) and the Oieringer Lake. — A marked path leuds from Going to (2 hrs.) the Gaudeamus-Hiltte (p. 226). Farther on, we follow the Reitner Ache to Spital (p. 282) and then cross the Grosse Ache. 18 M. St. Johann in Tirol (2160'), a railway-station (p. 232), at the N. base of the Kitzbiihler Horn (p. 230). The following route is more attractive than the monotonmis high- road via Erpfendorf to Waidring: by railway to Fieberbrunn (p. 233); then wallc by St. Jacob im Haus to St. Ulricli am Pillersee and (372 hrs.) Waidring (see below). The road leads to the N.E. through the wide valley of the Grosse Ache (Leuhen-Tal), quits it at (23 M.) Erpfcndorf ( 2085'; inn; route to Kossen , see p. 218), and turns to the E. via Reiterdorf. 27 1 /2 M.

The Kammerkdhr-Platu or Stein-Platte (6130') may be ascended from the Alp in 1 br.; view very fine. — The Fellhorn (57807 37‘/-4hrs., \vith guide; at*ract.ive) is ascended via Reiterdorf. On the N. side, 20 min. below the top, is the Eggenalm Inn. The descent may be made to Reit im Winkel (p. 93). — The Hinterhorn (82207 6-672 hrs. with guide), ascended by the Griesbacher Sleig via the Waidringer Nieder , is very interesting for experts (see p. 163). A road leads to the 8. through the Waidringer Oefen , a gorge of the Grieslbach , and past ( 3 /4 hr.) the chapel o£> St. Adolari (2780'; plain inn) to the (»/4 hr.) sequestered blue Pillersee (2735'), at the S. end of whicli lies the (1V-2 M.) village ot St. Ulrich (2775'; *Gastliaus am See, 30 beds at 1-2 K.; Zum Brau; trout at botb; guides, Clem. Widmoser and Joh. Wagstatl,er), with sulphur-baths. From St. Ulrich by St. Jakob im Haus to (2 hrs.) Fieberbrunn , see p. 233. The road from Waidring almost ali the way to Reichenhall leads through grand mountain-scenery. The profound and picturesque valley of the Loferer Bach , hetween the Hochplatte and the Steinberg, gradually contracts. In the narrowest part is the Pass Strub (2255'; inn), the frontier between Tyrol and Salzburg, which was once fortified, and was heroically defended by the Tvrolese peasants in 1800, 1805, and 1809 (obelisk erected in 1887). Beyond the Hinter¬ horn Inn , at the end of the delile, we enter the broad Saalach-Tal. 33 l /2 M. Lofer and thence to Saalfelden or Reichenhall , see R. 30. 15* 228 43. From Worgl to Zeli am See via Kitzbuhel. 58 M. Railway (OesterreicMgche Staatsbahn) in 2V.-3 hrs. (express farcs 11 K. 90, 7 K. 30, IK.tiOh.; ordinary fares 9 K., 5 K. 30, 3 K. 50/>.). W5rgl (1680'), see p. 219. The railway folloivs the left bank of the Brixentaler Ache to (2'^ M.) Sull-Leukental (restaurant), Tvith large cement-factories. Below Schloss liter, which stands on a spur of the Hohe Salve to the left, the train enters the Brixentalcr Klause, a rocky gorge, in rvhich, beyond a short tunnel, It ciosses the Ache. 5'/ 2 M. Hopfgarten (1970'; filiale Post , at the station, 14 beds at 1-1.60 K .), 1 M. to the W. of the large market-village of that name (2030'; *Post, 20 beds at 1-1.60 IT.; Rose, 20 beds at 1.20- 1.60 K.; Dieuald ; Knimerivirt; Oberbrau; Unterbrau), a summer and winter resort with 2890 inhab. and a large rococo church. The 'Hohe Salve (6000'), the Rigi of the Lower Inntal, is one of the most popular and most easily accessible points of view in the German Alps. The conspicuous summit of the mountain is covered with turf, and forests and farm-houses extend more than halfway up its slopes. The ascent is most easily made from Hopfgarten (3 l /*hrs. • route marked; gnide un- necessary; horse 10 K.; -chaise-a-porteurs' with 4 bearers 24 AT.). — From the station we follow the road to the right to (20 min.) the village, then by the (5 min.) finger-post ascend to the left (path and marks defective in places) to (IV 2 hr.) the Thennwirt (3820*; 12 beds, plain butgood; horse to the summit 5 K.). The path now ascends to the left, and then to the right (numerous short-cuts), past the (1 hr.) Kalbn Alp (4935'), to the (1 hr.) Inn (40 beds at 1.20-2 A'.), situated a little to the S. of the summit, on which stand a chapel and a cross 26' high. The ‘ c ’View (cornp. the Panorama) is magnificent, particularly to the S., where the complete Tauern Chain is visible from the Hochtenn and Wiesbachhorn to the Zillertal glaciers. Due S. rises the Gross-Venediger, to the left of which is the fantastic-looking Grosse Rettenstein in the Sperten-Tal; farther to the W. are the Northern Limestone Alps, -vvith the Steinberger Spitze, not unlike a church; to the N., the Grosse and Kleine Bolven, the Miesing, Wendel- stein, and, beyond the deep valley of the Inn, the imposing, serrated ridge of the Kaiser-Gebirge; E. the Loferer Steinberge, the Steinerne Meer. and, in the foreground, the Kitzbiihler Horn. From Briscen (p. 229) the Hohe Salve is ascended in 3 hrs.: we ascend by a bridle-path to the right, at the (1 hr.) chalets keep to the left (not siraight on), and at the hr.) chapel to the left to the Alp, and ascend in zigzags to the ( 3 /4 hr.) top. — From Wtstendorf (p. 229), by bridle- path in 3 hrs. (last third of the route in poor condition). — From SGU (p. 226), poor bridle-path in 3-3*/2 hrs. We proceed to the S. to the Stamp- fanger Graben , turn to the right before the (20 min.) chapel, and ascend via the Salven-Moser, the Angem Alp , and the Kot h Alp to the summit. To the S. of Hopfgarten opens the Kelchsau-Tal, watered by the Grundache and traversed by an interesting path over the Salzach-Joch to (9 hrs.) Krimml. Road (one-horse carr. 5 K.) via Horbrunn to (2 hrs.) Kelchsau (2590'; Neuwirt; Fuchswirt). About l fa hr. farther on the valley di videa: on the right is the Lange G rund , from which an uninteresting pass (gnide advisable) leads through the Frommgrvnd and over the Frommel - Joch (T5350, betvreen the Pollspitze and the Frommelkogl, to (8 hrs.) Gerlos (p. 235); on the left is the Kurze G rund, traversed by a bridle-path (guide not indispensable for experts) leading via the (2 hrs.) brandy-distillery cf Schelchenrain (4680' ; accommodation, 12 beds), the Kuhtrild Alp 15695'), and the (2 hrs.) Salzach-Joch lAlarkkirchl, 6)20'; magnificent view of the Tauern chain) to (3 hrs.) Ronach in the Pinzgau (p. 189). The ascent of the * Schaf- siedel (8035'; 3-3 1 /* hrs., with guide) from Schelchenrain, via the Rosswild Alp and past three small lakes, is attractive and not difficult. — The route through the Windau-Tal (p. 229) to the (2*/2 hrs.) shooting-hut of Retten- Ackerlspitze 2249 Sonntagshom 1960 Untersberg 1978 Fellhoi'n:l759 Kafrierkohrplatte 1863 in Hundstod Birnhorn 2631 OST Hoch.konig2939 2600 :Kitzhuhler Horn Steinemes Meer ■1994 ; c - Scheffauer Kaiser 2329 Treffauer Kaiser2356 Scheffau Spitzs,tein 1601 GrNViesbachhorn 3576 Fušcher Eiskahr Gr.Glockner 3796 Gr Re«enstein2362 HoherTenn Kitzsjteinhorn3l95 i 3345 KLRettenstem Velber la.uern 2242 Habaclikee: Wildbarn 1447 Gaisstein 2361 Salzachkopf 2463 Ahornspitze2966 Kreuzioch 2529 Stuhlkahr Thorhelm^339 J Du Zugspitze2975 WEST Galtenberg2452 Otzthaler Wildspitze Kellerjoch 2341 Hinter-Sonnwendjoch 1998 Lamsenspitze I Reichenspitz3307 SchafIkahrkopf : WildeGe r ' 0S Wendels*ein 1849 KI.Bolf Ig^ndJ 0 * Speckkahr2648 Krimmler Tauern 274! )Westendorf Grattenbergl SVivnT«n,& roReObi^i ? - : ^G-tj J/ p... / V;;/!risi er ^t^r>‘' ^useenenAJ V. i / ‘ - ' Sirtpsmjočh. y&dmt%l mer EUinmicrHaltspitze h*j$OJ(MAc .Tirni- . t -TrcffttUCK Sg ; V \ fMch.tribrumifp'* Sc/trctifelib, ^ rfcrpfieniUrrf '' \ TVri. ; : ,'■ -jUte/u/i rfc* - " '/& • V * \ , g 1 .

Richter - Hiitte (comp. p. 191). — From the Trissel Alp to the Mitterplatten Inn via the Wildkar Alp , path in bnd repair (better route down the valley via the Durlasboden, see above and p. 191). The path proceeds to the left angle of the wood descending from thePlattenkogel, and crosses the (10 min.) Hollenzer-Bach , the fron- tier of Salzburg and Tyrol. About 7 min. farther on the road divides: to the left to Ronach and Wald, straight on to Krimml, and to the right to the Zittauer Hiitte (see above). The direct route to the Pinzgau turns to the left and ascends along the Hollenzer-Bach, Crossing the stream twice. It then turns skarply to the N. and reaches ( 3 / 4 hr.) the fiat saddle of the Gerlos Pass or Pinzgauer Hohe (4875'), beyond \vkick it descends to ^/2 hr.) Ronach (45*25'; plain inn), Waldberg ( 3 / 4 hr.; 3840'), and ( 3 / 4 hr.) Wald (p. 189). A more attraetive route is the marked bridle-path Crossing the ZiUertal, MAYRHOFEN. Map,p.234.~ 111.

The "Ahornspitze (9750'; 6-672 lirs.; gnide, not indispensable for adepts, 12 iT.; not difficult) commands a magnificent view. Immediately beyond the (10 min.) bridge over the Zillerbach (see belovr) a winding path (red marks) ascends to the left mostly through wood via the (V /4 lir.) Alpenrose Inn on the Lovser Fellenberg Alp (4565') to the (2*/2 hrs.) Edel-lliitte in the Fellenbergkar (7340'; Inn, 24 beds at 3, 7 mattresses at 1.60 K.) and to (2 hrs.) the top. The descent mav be made from the Edel-Hiitte by a club- path to the (1 lir.) Filzen Alp (6250'; fine view of the Stillup glaciers) and thence to the S.W. via the Kretzlberg Alp (5275') to ( 3 A hr.) the Lackner Inn in the Stillup- Tal (p. 239). The Zillergrund, which opens to the E. and is drained by the Zillerbach, is traversed by several fatiguing passes Jeading to the Ahrntal. The most frequented of these crosses the Heiliggeistjbchl (IB hrs. from Mayrhofen to Kasern ; guide, not indispensable, 16 K .). From Mayrhofen a path (a new route is being made along the stream) ascends through wood to (l l /2 br.) Brandberg (8580'; Tanner), a picturesquely situated village (over the Brandberger Joch to Gerlos, see p. 236), and then proceeds on the right bank of the Zillerbach to (1 (/2 hr.) Hausling (3450'; Kroll, plain) and past the Hbhenberg Alp to the (IV2 hr.) inn In der Au (4185'; bed 1-2 K., vreli spoken of). The Grundschartner f 10,030’; not difficult for experts) may be ascended hence via the Kainzen-Hiitten and the Kainzen Olacier in 6 hrs. (guide 18 K. ; splendid view). The descent may be made to the (2^2 hrs.) Birberg Alp (p. 239). — Through'the Sondergrund, which opens to the S. at the Au, a monotonous path (red mark<) via the Kainzen-Hiitten (5130 1 ), the Mitter- Jliitlen (5630'), and the Schdn-Hillten (5837), ascends, finally over debri.s, to (5 hrs.) the Horndl-Joch (8380'; fine vie\v of the Rieserferner, etc.), and then descends through the Hollenz-Tal to (272-3 hrs.) St. Jakob in the Ahrntal (p. 483). — Instead of Crossing the Hdrndl-Joch 1o St. Jakob. we may (in the same time; guide advisable) proceed over the Mitter-Joch (8645') to St. Peter in the Ahrn-Tal. I11 the Zillergrund, 1 hr. above the Au Alp, is the Bdrenbad Alp (4700'; *Wegscheider’s Inn: the innkeeper is a good guide), where the valley divides: to the right the Hundskehl-Grund, to the left (straight 011) the Zillergriindl. A much-frequented route (1272-13 hrs. from Mayrliofen to St. Peter; guide, 16/C, advisable for novices) ascends to the right through the Hunds- kehl Grund past the Sulzen Alp, Neuhiitlen , and MUter-Hiitten , and, beyflnd t.hree small lake.s, over ddbri-5 to the (4 hrs.) Hundskehl-Joch (84 1 0'), witli a view of the Itieserferner, etc.. and thence descends to (3 hrs.) St. Peter (p. 4'3). — The Rauchkofel (10,670'; 5'/2-6 hrs. from the Barenbad Alp; fatiguing but interesting) may bc ascended by diverging to the lelt at the first Jake in the Hundskehl-Grund and ascending the delritus-slope on the W. side (gnide necessary, from Mayrhofen 15 K.). Fine view from the top (comp. p. 484). The descent may be made to the Ileiliggeist-Jdchl (p. 239) or to the Waldner-See and St. Valentin (p. 483). — The Napfspitze (10,320'; 3 hrs.), an attractive peak, not difficult for adepts, is ascended from the lower lake (see above) via the Hundskehl Glacier (guide 15, to St. Peter 22 K.). Above the Barenbad, in the Zillergriindl , are the Zillerplatten Alp (5515'), tlie (1 hr.) Zillerhutlen Alp (6650'), and the (20 min.) Kuchelmoos Alp (5835').

The Reichenspitze (10.845') may be ascended in 4 hrs. with guide (10 K.), vid the crevassed Kuchelmoos Olacier (see pp. 191, 286). Other ascents are the Kuchel- moo&spitze (10,560'; 3 ‘/2 hrs.; guide 9 K .), the Wildgerlosspitze (10,770'; 4V 2 hrs.; gnide 10 /(.), the ZillerplaUenspVze (10,320'; 8 V 2 hrs.; marked path; guide 10 A.), the Zillerschartenspitze (i.0,290'; 3 */ 2 hrs , guide 10 iC), and the Schioarz- kopf{ l0 07u'; 30 . 2-4 hrs.; guide 12if); descent from either of the three last to the Richter-Hiitte. 2 K. extra. Comp. p. 191. — From the Plauener Hiitte over the Gamsscharte (961.0') to the (4 hrs.) Richter-HHite (p. 191), not difticult for experts (guide 1 K.). From the pass the Richterspitze (10,150') may be ascended in ‘/2 hr. (guide 2 K. e\tra), see p. 19L. — An attractive marked paih leads via the Z llerplatte (9315') to the (5 hrs.) Neu-Oersdorfer Hiitte on the Krimmler Tauern (p. 192, gnide advisable after fresk snow or in foggy weathe ). — The expedilion (13-14 lira.) lrom Kasern via the Plauener Hiitte, Gamsschai*te, Richter-Iliitte, and the Krimmler Tauern-Haus to Krimml is highly recommended (comp. p. 192, 191). From the Plauener Hiitte a olub-path gradually ascends the E. slope of the Zillergriindl to the (2 1 /-2 hrs.) Heiliggeist-Jochl or Feld-Jochl (8720'; view). Thence we deseend to (2V2hrs.) Kasern (p. 483) or, follovving a new marked path to the left (line views), to the (1 hr.) Neu-Gersdorfer-Hitite (p. 192). A shoner but mucli more fatiguing route leads from the Kuchelmoos Alp (p. 238) among debris and boulders through the Zillergriindl and past the Hohenau Alp (6135') to the (3 hrs.) Heiliggeist-Jochl. The Stillup-Tal, stretching to the S.E. from Mayrhofen, between the Ahornspitze on the left and the Tristner on the right, up to the main range at the head of the Zillertal, -\vill repay a visit, at least as far as Moigg’s Inn (ca. hrs.; guide unnecessary). At the (20 min.) Inn zur Stillnpklamm (p. 237) we diverge to the left by a new rock-path and ascend through the Stillup-Klamm (p. 236), cross the (3/ 4 hr.) Wassersteg (3000') to the left bank, and ascend a wild ravine to the ^/2 hr.) Lachner-Aste -Znn , '(3410'), in the upper part of the valley. Ascent of the Ahornspitze (6 hrs.), see p. 238. We continue to follow the left bank, enjoying a fine view of the head of the valley, and at the ( 1/2 hr.) llnger-post cross to the Eberl Alp on the right bank. 1 hr. Vinzem-Jagdhaus (3590'); ^4 hr. farther is Moigg's Inn (3935'; 10 beds), with a flne view of the head of the valley. — \Ve next pass the Birberg-Aste (4155'; ascent of the Grundsc.hnrtner , 4 hrs., see p. 238), and reach the (2 hrs.) Taxach Alp (4635'), \vith a shooting-lodge, and the (1 hr.) Stapfen Alp (5465'), in a desolate basin at the head of the valley. From this point the Stangempitze (10,630'; 5 hrs.) and the Wollbachspitze (10,500'; 5 hrs.) may be asceiuled by experts (guides 18 K. each). — The follovving passes leading into the Ahrntal are little used. From the Stapfen Alp over the Stillup Olacier and the Keilbach-Joch (9410'), betvveen the Griinc Wand and the Gfallenspitze, to Steinhauz in the Ahrntal (p. 483), a fatiguing route of 7-8 hrs. (guide from Mayrhofen 18 K.). The Frankbach- Joch (9040'), betvveen the Grosse Loffler and the Keilbachspitze, offers a fine glacier-tour, but is very trying (guide 19 K.\ 8 hrs.); descent via the Frankbach Olacier.

Greizer Hiitle (p. 242) is toilsome (guide; only fon esperts). The ascent of the ■* Giffelitz (p. 242) mav be con- veniently combined \vith it. Through the Tuxer Tal, the most populous of the ahove valleys, a well-trodden route (road under eonstruction) leads from Mayrhofen to (TIV 2 hrs.) St. Jodok 011 the Brenner Railway (p. 296; to Hinter- Tux 51/2 hrs.; luggage forwarded in 7 hrs. by mule, at 12.30 p.m., daily in summer, from the Štern Hotel in Mayrhofen ; 10 h. per kilo- gramme,ie. 21/5 lbs.). The path crosses the Zemmbach~by the (l/o lir.) TJntere or Gstein-Stey (see p. 241) and aseends to (3/4 hr.) Finken- herg (2755'; Eberl, Neuwirt, both plain). It then rnns high up along the slope, passing the chalets of Persal (Hauser’s Inn; Jochherglnn, reached via the Teufels-Ilriicke and Gross-Dornau, see below), with retrospect of the Ahornspitze, etc. Beyond (3/, hr.) Innerbery (3440'; lvrapfenwirt, plain) the path crosses to the right bank of the Tuxer Bach, and shortly before (O/ihr.) Vorder-Lanersbach (4120'; Kapel- lenwirt, good) it recrosses to the left bank. — l / 2 hr. Lanersbaeh, or Vorder-Tux( 4230'; Stoclc; Bruckenuoirt ; Jdgervoirt, ali plain). Excuitsiosrs. The Gninberg (9405'; 5 hrs; guide 12, with deseent to Ginzling 15 A.), ascended via the Kreuz-Joch, is attractive and not difflcu.lt for experts. — The ascent of the 'Rastkogel (9055'-, 4'/^ hrs.; guide 8 A), which commands a fine view of the Zillertal mountains, is not difficult. The route leads via the Ldmmerbichl Alp. — Over the Geisel-Joch or the Juns-Joch to Schioaz , see p. 223. The Dornauberg (p. 212) may be combined with the Tuxer Tal T>y an addition of B /2 hr. to our walk, if we follow the route described on p. 241 to the Karlsteg (from Mayrhofen l 3 /4 hr.) and then rcturn along the W. slope of the valley, ascending the Schumann-Weg (see p. 242), to the (i 1 /* hr.) Persal- Brucke {Teufels-Brilcke, 2900'). Beyond the bridge is Hauser’s Inn (see above). From the Jochberg Inn, l fv hr. short of the Karlsteg (p. 242), another path leads to the Teufels-Brueke via Gross-Dornau. Beyond Lanersbaeh we cross the brook twice and then ascend its left bank via Junsberg and Madseit , enjoying a flne view of the Kasererspitzen, Olperer, Gefrorne Wand, etc. Beyond a wooded eminence we reach (2 hrs.) Hinter-Tux (4900'; Kireliler's Inn, 63 lieds at 1-1.60 K., often crowded in summer; private apartments at the house of the guide Tipotsch, etc.), splendidly situated, tvith a primitive bath-establishment (water ca. 71° Fahr.). An interesting visit may be paid (along the left bank) to the three Tuxer Waterfalls, whicli precipitate themselves into deep rocky basins, spanned by natural rock-bridges (to the highest ‘ScbraubenfaU 1 , 3 / 4 hr.). — To obtain a view of the glaciers we must follow the Tuxer Joch route as far as the (V 2 hr.) wood, or, better, to the (L 1 /-! lir.) guide-post (see p. 241), whence we may proceed to the left to the (10 min ) Sommerberg Alp, or Kaser Alp (6455'), commanding a beautiful view of the Gefrorne Wand and distinguished hy a rich flora. A stili finer view is enjoyed from the < Frauenwand (8335'), 3 /i hr. to the S. of the Tuxer-.Toch (p. 241; 372 hrs. from IIinter-Tux; guide 6 A"., unnecessary). Excuksions (guides, Sim. and Jos.

A path (marked red) crosses the Gefrorne Wand moraine to the (2 hrs.) Tuxer Joch (see below). From Hinter-Tux a fine route crosses the Riffler-Scharte (9450') and the Federbett Glacier to the (6 hrs.) Riffler-Hiltte and (2 hrs.) Rosshag (p. 243; guide 12 K.). With this route may easily be combined ascents of the Riffler (see above and p. 243; from the Riffler-Scliarte via the Federbett Glacier, I 4/2 hr.) and the Realspitze (9985’; 1 hr. from the Federbett; guide 3 K. eacb extra). — Over tlie Riepen-Scharte (10,145') to tile Dominikus-Hutte (5 trs. from the Spannagel-Haus; guide from Hinter-Tux 12 K.), see p. 245. From Hinter-Tux tlie liridle-path (marked red; guide, not in- dispeiisable, to Kasern 6, to St. Jodok S K.) ascends past the Kaiser- Brunnen to the (3/ 4 hr.) bridge over the Weitenbach, beyond which we proceed to the left to the (>/ 2 hr.) gnide-post (fine view), where the route to the Sommerberg Alp and the Spannagel-Haus diverges to the left (see p. 240). We, hovvever, keep straight on to the right, passing a second guide-post indlcating another path to the Spannagel- Haus, to the (l l /i hr.) cross (7572') on the saddle overlooking the bleak Weiten-Tal , rvhich descends to the E. to Hinter- Tux. Here we turn sharply to the left andbeyond//oii«r's/nti(13 beds a t 1 K. 60- 2 K.; well spoken of) reach (10 min.) the cross on the Tuxer Joch or Schmirner Joch (7675'; view limlted), whence the Frauenuiand (p. 240) may easily be aseended in ‘^/ 4 iir. From the oross we descend to the clialet in the basin lying before us, and thence by numerous zigzags over steep and stony slopes into tlie (1 hr.) Schmirner Tal (7715'). We now descend via (i/ 2 hr.) Kasern (5340'; Zingerle) and ( 3/4 hr.) Inner-Schmirn(4:75b'') 1 at the mouth of the MVildlahner- Tal (t.o the Geraer Hiitte, see p. 297), to (l/ 2 hr.)

Ascent of the 'Riffler (10,645'; hrs.), laborious but very interesting (guide 10, with descent to Hinter-Tux 15 K.). The bridle-path (red marks) diverges to the right from the path through the valley about 20 min. above Rosshag and leads via the Gschwantner Alp and the Birgl- berg Alp to the (3V2 hrs.) Riffler-Hiitte (7330'; provision - depot), in the Birglbergkar , picturesquely situated on a small terrace. Thence past the small Riffler-See (7590') in the Steinkar to the (Mft hr.) Federbett Glacier , and across the latter (almost no crevasses) to (2 hrs.) the summit (magni- ficent vievv). Descent either to the N. via the (1 hr.) Riffler-Scharte (see below) to (2y 2 hrs.) Hinier-Tux (p. 240); or (more difficult) to the W. to the (2V« hrs.) Spannagd-Haus by 1he Ge fr orne Wand Glacier. — From the Riffler-Hiitte over the Riffler-Scharte (9450') to ( 41/2 hrs.) Hinter- Tux , see p. 241 (guide 11 A.); the ascent of the Realspitze (9985'; from the Riffler-Hiitte 2 l /» 3 lirs.) . may be easily combined with this route (guide 3 K. extra). — The direct descent to Breitlahner , below the Gschwant- ner Alp, leads to the right from the guide-post direct to the Kaserle Alp (see below). The path (new road under construction) continues to follow the left bank of the Zemmbach, Crossing the Bifflerbach (to the Riffler- Hiitte, see above) to the Kaserle Alp and to (1 hr.) Neu-Breit- lahner (4070'; *Eder's Inn, with haths and telephone, 85 beds at 1-1.60 K.'), at the junction of the Zemmbach with the Zam- serbach. [To the S.E. here opens the *Zemmgrund or Schwarzenstein- Grund, which deserves a visit. (Bridle-path to the Berliner Hiitte, 31/2 hrs.; gnide 7 K., unnecessary; in connection rvith an ascent 4, froin Ginzling 9 or 6 K.). From Neu-Breitlahner the path, passing the inn of Alt-Breitlahner, ascends the right bank of the Zemmbach to the ( 3 / 4 hr.) Schivcmm Alp (4465'), situated in a broad basin covered with ddhris. To the right rises the Grosse Greiner (p. 246). About i /2 Er. farther on the good cluh-path ascends to the left to the ( 8/4 hr.)

Exouksions. In the Horn Olacier , about 5 min. from the hut, is an artificial ice-grotto (adm. 50A.). Skirting the tongue of the glacier (red marks), we may thence proceed to the (20 min.) Granat-HUlten on the Waxeck Glacier (6510')- — The (1 lir.) Hornschneide (ca. 7875') between the Schvvarzenstein and Horn glaciers, and the (1 a/ 4 hr.) Bossrucken (8530'), between the Ilorn and Waxcck glaciers, commund splendid views (finger- pdsts; guide not indispensable). An excellent point of view is the Schwarzsee (8070'), at the foot of the Rotkopf, IV2 hr. to the N.E. (patli indicated by marks; small shelter-hut). Ascents from the Berliner Hiitte (guides, Joh. Huber , Mati. and Joh. Fiechtl; in fine weather guides are usuallv to be found at the hut; enauire by telephone). The ascent of the Ochsner (10,190'; 372-4 hrs.; guide 8 K. ; fine view) is not difficult for experts. — The Rotkopf (9670'; 372 hrs.; 9 K.) offers an interesting climb for adepts. Passage by the arete from the Rotkopf to the Ochsner, H/2 hr., difficult. — The Feldkopf (. Zsigmondy- Spitze 10,120'; 372-4 hrs.; guide 10 K.) is difficult and should notbe attempted except by adepts. The route runs past the (±72 hr.) Schvvarzsee to the (1 hr.) Feldscharte , on the S.E., and then ascends to the left, over steep and smooth rocks, to (1 hr.) the summit (p. 243). — The "Grosse Mbrchner (10,785'; 472-5 hrs.; guide 9, to the Schvvarzenstein- Hiitte 11 AT.), via the Schtoarzenstein Glacier , presents no difficulty when the condition of the snow is favourable (fine view) and may easily be combined wi1h the ascent of the Schvvarzenstein (1 hr. extra). — The Grosse Loffler (11,095'; 7-8 hrs.; guide 17, to the Schwarzenstein-Hutte 18, to the Greizer Hiitte 16, to Taufers 25 2f.j, ascended via the Schtoarzenstein Glacier and the Floiten Glacier , is difficult and fatiguing (p. 242). —. The *Schwarzenstein (11,055'; 472-5 hrs.; guide 10, to the Sch\varzenstein-Hiitte 12, to the Daimer- Hutte 15, Taufers 19, to the Greizer Hiitte 14 AT.), an easy and very attrac- tive ascent, commands a splendid panorama. The route ascends the Schwarzsee route for 3 /4 hr., and from the finger-post follows a circuitous path (marked red) to the right to (1 hr.) a cairn on the Sauriissel (89' : 5 r ) and (1 hr.) the Schtoarzenstein Glacier. Crossing this we ascend to the left to the snowy saddle (10,180') next the Floiten Glacier, and thence to the right, over the snow-arete, to the (2 hrs.) summit, with a small shelter- hut (wine-uepot) and a ruined trigonometrical pyramid. The descent may be made via the Trippach Saddle to (1 hr.) the Schtoarzenstein-Hiitte (p. 482) and thence (guide necessary to the end of the Botbach Glacier) to the (172 hr.) Daimer-Ililtte and via Lutiach to (37z hrs.) Taufers; or (difficult) from the snowy saddle (see above) via the crevassed Floiten Glaciei • to the (3 hrs.) Greizer Hiitte (p. 242). Travellers bound for the upper Akrn-Tal may descend to St. Johann (p. 483) direct from the Daimer- Hiitte by a marked path to the left via the Rohrberg. — The Berliner Spitze or Dritte Hornspilze (10,735'; 5 hrs.; guide 10 A.) presents no great difficulty and is repaying. Descent to the S. to the (20 min.) Mitterbach-Joch (10,270') and to (372 hrs.) Weissenbach (p. 481; guide to Taufers 19 K.). The other Hornspitzen (first peak 10.610' and second peak 10,410', above the Schwarzen- stein Glacier; fourth peak 10,405 and fifth peak 10,395', above the Horn Glacier) are less attractive ascents from this side and are better combined with the passes to Taufers ment.ioned on p. 245. —The ascent of the Turner- kamp (11,225'), via the Horn Glacier and the Rossruck-Joch in 5-0 lirs-, is very difficult (guide 18, to the Chemnitzer Hiitte 20 AT.). Of a similar description is the Mosele (11,435'), whioh may be climbed via the Waxeck Zillertal. DOMINIKUS-HUTTE. Map,p. 242.-III. R.U. 245 Olacier and the Eastern MSsele - Scharte (10,740') in 6 hrs. (guide 14, to Furtsehagel 16, to Chemnitzer Hutte 20 K.).

To the Chemnitzer Hutte over the Tratter-Joch (9950'), 7-8 hrs. with guide (to Taufers 17 K.), fatiguing. A preferable route (672-7 hrs., vvith guide, 12 K.; not difficult for adepts) leads via the Rossrucken (p. 244) and the Horn Olacier to the (4-472 hrs.) Rossruck- Joch (10,655'; wire-rope), vvhence adepts may ascend the *Ros$ruckspitze (10,850), with beautiful vievv, in 20 min.; descent to the Trattenbach Glacier and by a club-patli to the (272-3 hrs.)

A good but at first rather steep path diverges to the right above the Dominikus-Hutte, and ascends to the (21/2 hrs.) Olperer- Hiitte (7825'; 9 mattresses ; provision-depot) 0 , in the Riepenkar , overlook- ing the beautiful Schlegeis-Tal. This hut is the best starting-point for the ascent of the *01perer (11,415'; 372-4 hrs.). The route crosses the Riepen Glacier and the Schtieegupf. The last part, ascending the E. arete, is a stiff climb, but presents no special difficulty to those who have steady heads, if the rocks are clear of sno\v or ice; stout worsled gloves should be taken (guide 15, vvith descent to Hinter-Tux 20 K.). — The Olperer-Hiitte is a starting-point also for the ascent of the Gefrorne Wandspitzen (N. peak 10,795', S. peak 10,745'), via the Riepen-Scharte (372 hrs.; guide 10, vvith descent to Hinter-Tuz 16 AT.), the Fussstein (10,950'; 4 hrs.; difficult; guide ld to the Geraer Hutte 16 A.), and the Schrammacher (11,210'; 6 hrs.; guide 13, vvith descent to St. Jakob in Pfitscli 17 K.). — From the Olpcrer- Hutte over the Riepen-Scliarte (10,245'), betvveen the Olperer and the Ge¬ frorne Wandspitzen, to the Svannagel-Hans (p. 240), 5 hrs.

Mutnock (10,110'; 372 hrs.; 8 K .), and Breitnock (10,570'; 4 hrs.; 8 K.), via the Schlegeis Olacier and the Neves-Saltd , not difficult. The Hochfeiler (11,560'; 5-6 hrs.; 16 iv.), aseended via the Uochsteller Olacier (steep ice-slope, 1640’ high) and the Oberberg Olacier , and the Weisszint (11,140’; 472-5 hrs.; 14 K.), via the Schlegeis-Scharte (10,115') and the N.E. arete, are both difficult (see pp. 247, 477). — Over the Neves-Sattel (9970') to the Chemnitzer Hiitte by the riew ‘Furtschagel-Weg’ as far as the Schlegeis glacier, 67'2-7 hrs., difficult but interesting (guide 11 AT.), see p. 482. Over the Ories-Scharte (9185’), between the Hochfernerspitze and the Hochsteller, to the Oberberg-Tal (to St. Jakob in Pfitsch 7 hrs.guide 11 K.), trying. FROM THE DOMINIKUS-HUTTE OVER THE Al.PEINER ScHARTETO THE GeRAER IIutte (572-6 hrs.; guide, advisable tor novices, 10 AT.), rather laborious but repaying. A path (marked red) diverges to the right from the Piitscher- Joch route, about 20 min. above the Duminikus-Hiitte (finger-post) and crosses the brook to the Nmkaser Hut (o980'). Thence we follow the ‘Keussische Weg’ (red marks) Ihrough the wooded Unter-Schrammach-Tal , ascending in zigzags to the ‘Lakeln 1 in the stony. Unter - Sclirammachkar (;545'), and then graduallv ascend to the left to the (3 hrs.) spring below the Schrammacher (ca. 8530'). At a guide-board a little short of this point, the ‘Schrammacher Weg’ (blue mark?) diverges on the left for the (2 hrs.) Pfitscher Joch (see belovv). The Beussische Weg’ ascends from the spring, finally Crossing snow, to (1 hr.; 4-472 hrs. from the Dominikus-Iliitte) the Alpeiner Scharte (9710'), betvveen the Fussstein and the Schrammacher (fine view). Descent on the N. side aeross snow and then by a good club-path to the (ly< hr.) Oeraer Hiitte (p. 297). The path crosses to the right bank above the Dominikus-IIutte and, gradually ascending through \voods and meadows past the Lovitz Alp (on the right is the Stampjl Glacier ), reaches the (^2^2 ^rs.) Pfitscher Joch (7375'; Rainer's Inn , 36 beds at 1.20-2 I(., plain hut good), \vhich affords a fine view, to the left, of the Rotbacher Spitze and Hochferner. In the foregronnd, far belo\v, are the green Pfitscher Tal and the serrated ridge which separates it from the Pfunders-Tal, with the Pletzenspitze, Rote Beil, and Grabspitz; to the W. rise the Rollspitze and, in the distance, the Ortler and the Oetztal Alps.

Innsbruck (1885'), first mentioned in 1161, and since 1420 tbe Capital of Tyrol, vith 60,000 intiab. (incl. the subnrbs of Hotting and Miihlau and a garrison of 2475 men), charmingly situated on the Inn, not far from the inflnx of the Sili , is next to Salzburg the most picturesque townamong the AustrianAlps. In every direc- tion, particularly towards the N., the eye is met by striking groups of bold and flssured limestone mountains (Brandjoch, Frau Hitt , See- grubenspitzen, Ilafelekar, Rumerspitze), towering ahove the culti- vated slopesof the valley; vhile towaids the S., above the wooiled Berg /jel, rise the noble outlines of the Waldraster Spitze and Saile. More in the foreground, to the left above the Lanser Kbpfe, peeps the rounded summit of the Patscher Kofel. — On account of its protection from the N. wind and its mild and equable climate, Innsbruck may be recommended as a winter-resort and also as a transition-station in spring or autunm. In front of the statlon is a fountain by H. von Sieberer (1906), in memory of the union of the suburbs of Wilten and Pradl vith Innsbruck. The Rudolf-Strasse leads to the riglit to the Marga- kbtbn-Platz (Pl. C, D, 4), vhere the Rudolfs-Brunnen (Pl. 2), in red Tyrolese marble, erected in 1877, commemorates the 500th an- niversary of the union of Tyrol vith Austria (1363). At the top is a bronze statue of Duke Rudolf IV., 10' in height, by Grissemann, and around the basin below are four water-spouting dragons and four grifflns as shield-bearers. We next pass through the Landhaus-Strasse and reach the MAiaA-THBEESiEN-STitAssE (Pl. O, 3, 4), the chief thoroughfare of the town, vhich contains the Landhaus (a baroque structure of 1719-28, vith a staircase adorned with stucco ornamentation on the lirst floor), the former palače of Prince Thurn and Taxis, vhich now belongs to the Landhaus (ou the first floor, the Paris-Saal, vitli ceiling-paintings by M.

C, 3), a Street flanked with arcades (‘Lauhen’), which leads directto the Goldene Dachl. The ‘Goldene Dachl’ (Pl. 4; 0, 3), now the property of the town, is a ricli late-Gothic balcony with a gilded copper roof, adorningthe old Fiirstenburg, a palače hniltby Count Frederickof Tyrol(d. 1439), nicknamed ‘witl> the empty pockets’, in 1425, wben he estahlished liis residence at Innsbruck. According to the inscription, horvevcr, the balcony tvas not erected until 1500. The reliefs of the upper parapet represent the Emp. Maximilian and his wife rsitnessing dancing and juggling performances. Thepaintings and the armorial bearings in marble on the lowSr parapet also refer to the emperor. The Stadtturm or Fcuerturm (Pl. 22), 185' high, opposite, couimands a line view (fee). — The Catholic Casino, the corner- house on the opposite side of the Herzog-Friedrich-Str,, is ricbly ornamented in the rococo style. Adjoining, in thebroader partof the Street, nearer the Inn Bridge (p. 255), stands the Goldene Adler (Pl. d; p. 248), the oldest inn in the town, rvhere Goethe stayed in 1786, and from the window of wliich Hofer addressed the citizens on Ang. 15th, 1809. From the Goldene Dachl and the Stadtturm the Ilofgasse leads to the E. to the Rennplatz (Pl. C, 3), bounded on the S. by the Hof- kirche, on the W. by the Hofburg (p. 252), and on the E. by the Stadlsiile (Pl. 19; cafd-restaurant, p. 249) and the Theatre, built in 1835. In the centre stands the prettyXeopolds-Brunnen (Pl. 1), erected in 1893, incorporating a small equestrian statue of Arch- duke Leopold V. (Count of Tyrol in 1609-32) and ten other bronze llgures by C. Gras (1626). — To the N. is the pleasant Hof-Garten (p. 249). The “Franciscan Church, or Hofkirche (Pl. C, 3), tvas erected in 1553-63, in compliance tvith the will of Emp. Maximilian I. (d. 1519), for the purpose of worthily enshrining his monument. The ground-plan is that of a columnar basilica; the building, tvliich was carried out by Andrea Crivelli of Trent, is in the Italian Re- liaissance style. The fine porch and doorway should be noted. The Interior is open on week-days after 9 a,m., on Sat. and the eves of holidays ti31 4 p.m. only ; on Sun. and hoHdays and on May 3rd, June 13th, Sept. 14tb, and Oct. 4th 11-5 and after 6.30 p.m. Owing to the wide spacing of the slender round shafts, which are strengthened with iron braces, the distinction between nave and aisles is not strongly marked. The reti- culated Gcthic vaulting is richly ornamented with stucco-work. — On the left of the entrance is a monument lo Andreas Ilofer (b. on 22nd Feb., 1767, at tbe Inn am Sand, p. 345; shot at Martua on 20th Feb., 1810; bis bones were brought here in 1823), erected in 1834; at the sides lie his 252 lil.

Opposite is a memorial (1883) to ali tlie Tyrolese wlio fell in tlie war of liberation. The *Monument of the Emperor Maximillan, wbo, however, is not interred bere, but at Wiener-Neustadt (p. 521), stands in the nave. In the middle is a massive marble sarcophagus, and at the sides, between the round shafts, are 28 bronze atatues of the emperor 1 ® actual and hypo- thetical ancestors and contemporaries in the guise of mourners and torch- bearers. The general design is due to Gilg Sesselschreiber , the court-painter, who \vas responsible also for the execution from 1508 to 1518, being suc- ceeded in the latter year by Stephan Godi. The statues, which vary greatly in artistic value, have their names inscribed on the pedestals. The best are (on the right): 3. Emp. Rudolph of I-Iapsburg; *5. Theodoric, King of the Ostrogoths; *8. Arthur, King of England. The two tigures marked 10 represent Maxi- milian’s wives; on the left, Maria of Burgundy, on the right, Bianca Maria Sforza of Milan. The tigures of Theodoric and Arthur (1513; the latter unquestionably the finest German statue of the period; shield modem) are by Peter Vischer , of Nuremberg. The latest of the series (Clovis of France; No. 1 on the right) was čast by Gregor Liiffler in 1550. The black marble sarcophagus, enclosed by a magnificent iron grille, is ornamented with reliefs in Carrara®marble, designed by Florian Abel (d. 1565) and executed in 1561-66, principally by Alexander Golins (1526-1612), the sculptor of the Otto-Heinrichs-Bau in Heidelberg. These are full of movement and represent in picturesque fa^hion the principal events in the life of the emperor, whose features, at the different periods portraved, are unmistakeable. The series begins on the end first approached by the spectator, at the top, on the left (Nos. 1-12 upper row, 13-24 lower row): 1. Marriage with Maria of Burgundy, 1477; 2, 3. Wars in the Netherlands against the French; 4. Coronation at Aix-la-Chapelle, 1486; 7, 9. Wars with the Turk s; 10.

The bili has belonged since 1816 to the ‘Kaiser-Jager’ (Tyrolese Riflemen), who have their shooting-ranges here (military band, see p. 249). The Regimental Museum (adm., in summer only, 40 h.; printed guide 40 h.') oontains many relics, and a Pavilion at the N.E. angle, with a view-indicator, affords a charming survey of the Inntal and the town (adjacent, a restaurant ■vvith garden).

The Grosse Turin (9280'; very fine view) and the Mittlere Turin (9235'), ascended (with guide) in 4 hrs. from the Lindauer Hiitte, are not difficult; the Kleine Turni (8930'; ca. 3 J /2 hrs.) is a very difficult climb. To the Wokmsek Hutte (4V2-5 hrs.). We follow the marked club- path leading from the church to the (3V2 hrs.) Vordere Kapeli Alp (6170'), and then either traverse the ar St e, or proceed up the ‘See-WegY between the Kapell-Joch and the Hocbjocli, to (l J /4 hr.) the Wormser Hiitte (7710'; Inn, 10 beds and 5 mattresses), \vhence the N. or S. Kapelljoch-Spitze (7820'j may be scaled in 20 min. (exoellent view). Hence also the Zamangspitze (7840') may be ascended in 1 hi*. by the arete to the S.; descent via the Livina Alp to (372 hrs.) St. Gallenkirch (p. 236). — From the S. Kapell- jochspitze by the arete to the E. we mav ascend the ( 3 /4 hr.) Kreuzjoch (8090'), whence a difficult climb to the FT. (guide 14 K.) brings us to the (172 hr.) summit of the Hochjoch (8275'; magnificent view). — The interest- ing ascent of the Madererspitze ( Kleiner Maderer , 9090’) may be made from the Wormser Hiitte in 5 hrs., with guide. We descend via the Kreuzeclc arete to the Grasjoch (3860'), then ascend towards the highest point of the ridge, skirt round the Fizzeguter Grat (8145') from the H. side to the S. si de, pass the Diirrekopf (8055') and the Lutlerseeberg (80309, and scramble over the N.W. arete to the summit (magnificent prospect).

Tlie route leads from Schruns to tlie bridge over the 111, then to the S. (leaving Tschagguns on the right) by a red-marked path op the Ziegerberg to ( 21/2 trs.) the Gampadels Alp (4490'). Beyond the Alp we turn to the right from the path through the valley, ascend the meadows to a huge boulder, and strike another path, leading along the slope of the Schwarzhorn (below to the left lies the Walser Alp ) to the (2^2 hrs.) Tilisuna- Hiitte (7255'; *Inn, 14 beds at 3.60 K. and 20 mattresses), lying above the sinall Tilisuna-See (6895'). Thence to the left to the (3 /4 hr.) Verspala-Grat, then over a rocky plateau, and lastly across the small uncrevassed Sporer Glacier, to the (2 hrs.) summit, which commands a magnificent panorama. Rot far from the Tilisuna-Hiitte are some interesting Gaves , recently made aecessible (Abgrund-Hohle, Herren-Hbhle, Kirch-Hohle), the visit to which occupies altogether l l /2 hr. (guide, lights, and. magnesium torohes, at the hut). — The deseent from the Tilisuna Hut into the Oauer- Tal is made as follows: there is first a steep ascent to the Bilkengrat (H025 1 ) and then a zigzag deseent to the (2 hrs.; 3 hrs. in the opposite direction) Lindauer Hiltte (see below); or we descend (with guide) direct from the summit through the Rachen , a wild guily strewn with patches of snow and ddbris, and then by a marlted club-path to the (2 1 / 2 -3 hrs.) Lindauer Hiitte. The LOnek See is reaohed by two routes. That through the Kellstal follows a steep path up the left bank of the Rellsbach from Vandans (p. 284) to the Liiner Alp , and over the Rellstal-Sattel (Luner Krinne; 7105') to the lake (6 hrs. to the Douglass-Hiitte, p. 268). The other far preferable route (7-8 hrs.; guide 11, tvith the Scesaplana and night out 21, to Bludenz 28 K .) leads through the Gauer-Tal. Beyond ('/4 hr.) Tschagguns (p. 284) it crosses the Rasafeibach to the left and follotvs the valley of that stream through wood to (1 hr.) the upper end of the village of Landschau (lun zum Gauertal), then ascends along the right bank (\vith the Mittagspitze and Schtvarzhorn on the left, and the Sulzfluh, Drei Turme, and Drnsenfluh in front) via the (>/2 hr.)

A marked path skirts the Weissplatte (Scheienfluh , 8660') to the S.E. to the Plasseggen-Joch (see above), crosses a slope covered with debris to the Sarotla Pass (7860'), and then descends rapidly across the Sarotlabacli to the Robi Alp and to Gargellen (see below). From Schruns to St. Anton through the Silbertal, 11-12 hrs. (guide 25 K.). We ascend the left and then the right bank of the Litzbach by a good road (p. 285) to the scattered village of (H/ihr.) Silbertal (2915'; Hirsch , well spoken of). On the S. is the Hochjoch (n. 285$ to the Wormser Hiitte, 41/2 hrs.) and on the E. rises the Lobspitze (8565'; ascent in 5-6 hrs. through the T Vassersluben-Tal, laborious, see p. 285). The valley now con- tracts; the path ascends, generally through wood, first on the right and then on the left bank of the rapid Litzbach to the (2 hrs.) Alp Gieseln (4335'), wliere the valley bends to the E., and (‘/2 hr.) the Alp Unter- Gafluna (4565'), at the raouth of the Gafluna-Tal (see below).

Silbertaler Winter-Jochl (6540'). between the Trostberg on the left, and the MVannenkopf on the right; on the E. rises the Patteriol (p. 271). Descent to the Schon-Fervall and (4V2hrs.) St. Anton (p. 270). — The route from Schruns through the Gafluna- Tal (see above), and over the Gafluner Winter-Jochl (7685') to (11-12 hrs.) St. Anton is more fatiguing. From the Gafluner Winter-Jochl, 5*/2 hrs. from Silbertal, a club-path leads to the ( 3 /4 hr.) Reutlinger Hiitte (p. 270). Above Schruns the valley contracts; on the left is the Zamang - spitze (7840'), on the right the Qweiljoch (7900'). The road crosses the 111 by the (2 M.) Land-Brucke (2825'), and ascends through the Fratte , a delile "which divides the Montafon into the Ausser- and Inner-Fratte ; 3/ 4 M. farther on the road recrosses the river, and 2 M. farther a flnger-post indicates the path to the right across a covered bridge to the hamlet of Kreuzgasse (Kreuz; Štern).

Route 55. 325 via tli e LeitenAlp in 2 hrs.; guide necessary (4 A.), interesting.— The ascent of the ^Brunnenkogel (9515'; 4-472 hrs.; guide 8 A., desirable for the final ascenl) is rather faliguing. A path crosses the Ache and the Windach (see heh>w) and ascends steeply through wood to (172-2 hrs.) the Falkner Inn (6-175'; bed 1 A'., unpretending); thence over pastures, detritus, and rocks to the (2 hrs.) Erzherzog-Eugen-JJiitte (9000';. Inn, 9 beds), whence we climb the arete to the ( 3 /4 hr.) summit. Splendid panorama. — The Grieskogel (9550'; 472 hrs.; guide 10 A - .) and the Geislacher Kogel (9720'; 472-5 hrs.; guide 10 A., with dcscent to Ileiligkreuz 12 A.) are also interesting points. To tiie Hildesjieimer Hutte, 5 hrs. (guide 9 A., not indispensable). A good path leads to the E. np the Windach-Tal through wood to the (2 hrs.) Windacli Alp (6440'; Fiegl’s Inn, plain). Beyond the Warnsbach (route to the Bildstockl - Joch, 372-4 hrs., see p. 8,8) a club-patli ascends to the left to the (8 hrs.) Hildesheimer Hutte (95L5'; Inn, 18 beds and Bmattresses), grandly situated over the crevassed Pfaffen Glacier. The fine view includes the Wildspitze, Weisskugel, etc. to the W., the Schaufelspitze to the A., the Apere Pfaffengrat totheN.E., the Pfafienschneide to the E., the Geisskogel to the S.E., and the mountains betvreen the Windach-Tal and the Tiinmel- Tal to the S. This hut (from wliich guides 1 fees are reckoned) is the starting- point for the ascents of the Schussgruben-Kogel (10,570'; P/2 hr.; guide 7 A.), Schaufelspitze (10,935'; 172-2 hrs.; guide 9 A), Apere Pfaff (10,995'; 272 hrs.; guide 9 A.), Zuckerhiitl (11,520'; 3 hrs.; guide 11 A.), and lVilde Pfa.{f (11,390'; 3 hrs.; guide 9 K.).

From Solden to the Stubai-Tal over the Bildstockl-Joch (8 hrs. to the Dresdner Hiitte, guide 14 A.), see p. 308. It is advisable to spend the night at FiegFs Inn (see above), as the Schaufel Glacier is very wet at middav. — To tlie Pitztal through the Bettenbach-Tal and via the Piiztaler Jochl (9945') to the Braunschvveiger Hiitte (6 hrs.), see p. 336 (guide 10, to Mittelberg 14 A.). Beyond Solden the road crosses the Ache and the Windach (see above) and then ascends through a rocky ravine of the Ache, called the Kuhtreien. At the (3 M.) hamlet of Zwieselstein (4840'; Traube , moderate; Untenvirt Prantl\ at the foot of the Noderkogel , the valley divides (‘zwieselt‘) into the Gurgler Tal (p. 332), which ascends to the left, and the Venter Tal to the right. Besides the cart-track through the valley, another path (guide, advisable for the less proficient, 5 A.) cominanding a series of fine views, leads from Solden to (372 hrs.) Heiliglcreuz via the Geislacher Alp (6490) and the village of Geislach (5870). Over the Geislacher Kogel (7-8 hrs. to Heiliglcreuz), see above. — Ascent of the Noderkogel (10,385'; 5-6 hrs. from Zwieselstein; guide 11 A.; Alois and Bern. Santer and Peter Praxmarer) by a club-path, rather fatiguing. Steep descenis to the W. to (3 hrs.) Hciligkrcuz (see below; (guide 12 77.), to the E. to (4 hrs.) G ur gl (p. 332; guide 13 77). — From Zwieselstcin to SchSnau over the Timmel-Joch (8230), 5-6 hrs. with guide (10 A), fatiguing (see p. 348). The path into the Venter Tal turns to the right, by a finger- post, before the first houses ol Zwieselstein are reached, crosses the Ache, and foIlows the stony slope on the left bank of the Venter Ache to (ll/ 2 hr.) Kurzlehn or Heiliglcreuz (5615'; accommodation at the curd’s; over the Soiter-JocM? to the Pitztal, see p. 336). Fine retrospect of the Soldenkogel and Nebelkogel, backed hy the Štabni Alps.

Breslauer Hiitte (9345'; *Inn, 10 beds at 4 and 8 mattresses at 1.60 K. ), in a magniflcent situa¬ tion at the foot of the Oetztaler Urkund. Ascents (tariff from the Breslauer Hutte; from Vent 3 K. more). The Wilde Mamile (9855'$ 3 /i hr. •, gnide 3 K.) is easy and repaying. — The Urkund- Kulm (11,675), ascended by the ‘Partscli Weg’ (see below) in 2 hrs., with guide, is not difficult; magnificent view. — The Hintere Brochkogel (11,930'), via the Mitterkar-Joch (see below) in 3 hrs. (guide 12 K.), is not difiicult for experts. — From the Breslauer Hiitte a club-path (‘SeuffertAVeg 1 ) leads to the Vernagt-Hiitte via Plattei in 2 l /z hrs. (guide 3 /i.), see p. 327. The ^^ildspitze {Northern 12,380’, Southern , 12,365'; 6-7 hrs. from Vent, 3-4 hrs. from the Breslauer Ilutle; guide to the S. peak 12, to both peaks 13 K .), the highest peak of the Oetztal Alps, presents no unusual diffi- culty to experts. From the (3 hrs.) Breslauer Iliitte we cross the Mitterkar Glacier (the last part steep) to the (2-21/2 hrs.) Mitterkar-Joch (11,360'), between the Wildspitze and the Hintere Brochkogel, and ascend by the uppermost ice-slopes of the Taschach Glacier from the W. side to the (I-IV4 hr.) S. peak, which is connected with the (6 min.) N. peak by a narrow ardt.e (where the overhanging masses of snow necessitate caution). Another more difiicult route (‘Partsch-Weg’; for adepts with steady heads only, guide 1 6V2A.) from the Breslauer Hiitte ascenas to the Urkund-Kulm (see above) and thence by the rugged arete and the ice-clad saddle between the Mitterkar and Rofenkar glaciers to the (3 lirs.) S. peak. The *View is most magnilicent. — Descent. on the N. side via the Taschach Glacier , the Mittelberg-Joch , and the Mittelberg Glacier to the (3 1 /2 hrs.) Braunschioeiger Hiitte (p. 335; guide 19 K.), or to the N.W. via the Taschach Glacier and beneath the steep slopes of the Brunnenkarkopf (10,755'), avoiding the sdracs of the glacier, and across the lovver part of it to the (3’A hrs.) Taschach- Haus (p. 336; guide 19 A.); or to the S.W. via the Brochkogel-J o ch to the Ver nagi-Hiitte (see below ; guide 14 K.). Another red-marked path (guide O K.') from Vent ascends to the S.W. via Ro fen (p. 329) and the Flattei (8940'), and then traverses the tongue of the Gross- Vernagt Glacier to the (S 1 ^-^ hrs.) Vernagt- Kiitte or Wurzburger Hiitte (9075'; *Inn, 9 beds and 7 mattresses), tinely situated on the Hintergraslen. Excuksions (tariff from the Vernagt-Hutte; from Vent 3 E. more). A new path (no ice) leads in 2 hrs. (guide 7 K., not indispensable) to the top of the Iliutergraslspitze (10,900').

Hochjoch-Hospiz (p. 330; shortest route from the Wildspitze to the Schnalser Tal). An interesting cfrcular tour leads from Vent via the Breslauer Hutte and the Vernagt-Hutte to the Hochjoch-Hospiz, returning through the Rofental, 9-10 hrs. (guide 8 A.) — From the Vernagt-Hutte to the Pitz- tal via the Brochkogel-Joch, Taschach-Joch, or Sexten-Joch, see p. 328; to the Kaunser-Tal via, the Gepatsch-Joch or Kesselwand-Joch, see p. 328. From the Vernagt-Hiitte the ‘Brandenburger Steig’ leads over the Guslar Glacier and the Brandenburger Jochl (10,825'), then to the S. below the Kesselicandspitze (11,200'; club-path in 1/2 lir., easy) and across the Kesselwand Glacier to the (2-2t/2hrs.) Branden¬ burger Haus (10,750'; ‘“Inn, 38 beds at 5, 10 mattresses at 2 -ST.), flnely situated on the Kesselivand-Joch , above the vast Gepatsch Glacier. A somewhat longer route (2 l /2 hrs.) crosses the Guslar-Joch (10,910’), betwecn the Ressel wandspitze and the Fluchtkogel (see p. 326; ascended from the saddle in 1/2 hr.; gnide 1 A. extra). — From the Hochjoch-Hospiz the Oscar-Reuther-Weg leads to the Brandenburger Haus in 3-372 hrs.; descending to the stream this path rounds the Obernberg , crosses the Hintereis Glacier , ascends the slopes of the Hintereis Alp in numerous windings (magnificent vicvvs), and terminates at the (2 hrs.) foot of the Mutspitze, whence we ascend the gently sloping Kesselwand Glacier to the (1 hr.) Kesselvvand-Joch. — The Brandenburger Haus may be reached from the Weis$kugel-Hiit(e in the Langtauferer Tal (p. 341) via the Lang- taufer Glacier and the Vernagehvand-Steig (vvire-ropes and pegs) in 5 hrs.; from the Hdller -Hiltte (p. 314) via, the Hdller - Schartl, Hintereis-Joch, Weisskugel-Joch, and Vernagelwand-Steig in 7 hrs.; from the Gepatsch- Jlaus (p. 338) via the Rauhenkopf-Hutte and the Gepatsch Glacier in 7 hrs.; and from the Taschach Haus (p. 336) via Sexten-Joch, IIintergraslwande and Guslar-Joch in 6 hrs.

Dalimannspitze (Vorderer Kesselwandkopf; 11,115'; 72 hr.), easy and repaying; Kesseltoandspilze (11,200'; 1 hr.), over the Brandenburger Jochl or the Guslar-Joch; Flucht¬ kogel (11,580'; 174 hr.), via the Guslar-Joch, and Weiss-Seespitze (11,595'; 2-272 hrs.), via the Gepatsch Glacier, present no difficulty. — The Weiss- kugel (12,290'; 6-7 hrs.), via, the Vernagelwand-Steig, Weisskugel-Joch and Hintereis-Joch, difficult. Hinlereisspitzen ( Vordere 11,290', Mittlere 11,325', and Hintere 11,460') and Hochvernagelicand (11,263'), not difficult (tour em- hracing ali four peaks in 3 hrs., interesting). The Schwarzwandspitze (11,385'), Hochvernagtspitze (11,585'), Hintere Brochkogel (11,930'), and Wild- spitze (12,365') may be ascended from this liut also. The Grosse itamolkogel (11,650'; from Vent 5 hrs.; guide 12, to Gurgl 18 A.), anotlier magnificent point of view, is toilsome but highly interesting. From the Ramol-Joch route (p. 333) we diverge to the left, after 2 hrs., into the Rote Kaarle , whence a club-path ascends over debris and rock, and lastly over the ice-clad arete to the (3 hrs.) summit. View similar to that from the Kreuzspitze, but more open towards the E. Descent (for adepts only) via the arete to the Mittlere Ramolkogel (Anich- spitze , 11,200') and thence to the Ramol Glacier and Ramolhaus (p. 333).

Admirable view of the E. Oetztal Mts. (Ramolkogel, Firmisan- schneide, Schalfkogel, Ilintere Schwarze, Talleitspitze; immediately to the left the impo.sing Wildspitze). [Tlie Tanfkar-Joch roay be reached also from tke (3 hrs.) Breslauer Hiitte (p. 326) in I 1/2 hr., by a elub-path Crossing the Rofenkar Olacier , the Wilde-Manni-Scharte (9S40'), and the Taufkar Glacier.] We descend aeross the extensive snow-lields at the head of the large ■Mittelberg Olacier (on the left tlie Hohe Wande, Schuchtkogel, and Redite Fernerlcogel), then skirt the Linke Fernerkogel and traverse the crevassed central portion of the glacier. Above the ice-fall we cross it to the right to tlie Kaarles Glacier (observing on the right the Ilangende Ferner , with its fantastic ice-formations), and reacli the (2y 2 hrs.) Braunschvveiger Hiitte (p. 335); thence to (2 hrs.) Mittelberg by the ‘Richard Schucht Weg\ see p. 335. — The passage of the Rofenkar Glacier and the Rofenkar-Jocli (10,825') to the Mittelberg Glacier (from the Breslauer Hiitte to tlie Braunschvveiger Hiitte 4V2-5 hrs.; guide 16 K.) is more difticult. To the Pitztal over the Sexten-Joch (10,635'; 9 hrs. to the Taschach Hans; two guides at 19 K.), a fatiguing route. The path ascends from the (3 hrs.) Breslauer Hiitte via the Vernagt-Joch (11,220') in 3 hrs., or from the (3'/a hrs.) Vernagt-HiiUe via the Gross-Vernagt Glacier in 2 hrs. to the Sexten-Joch , bekvveen the Hochvernagtspitze (11,585'; see p. 327) and the Hochvernagticand (11,245'). The descent may be made to the crevassed Sexegerten Glacier , and then to the right to the (3V2 hrs.) Taschach-Haus (p. 3 6), or we may ascend to the left to the Oelgruben-Joch and descend to the (6 hrs.) Gepatsch-Haus (p. 338). — The Taschach-Joch (10,660'; 9 hrs. to the Taschach-Haus; two guides, via the Breslauer Hiitte and Vernagt- Joch 18 K. each, via the Vernagt-Hiitte 22 K. each), between the Hoch- veriiagticand and the Petersenspitze (11,525'), is difficult but very fine. — The Tiefenbach-Joch (10,640'; 7-8 hrs. to Mittelberg; guide 17 Z.), betwcen the Jnnere Schioarze Schneide (11,055’; easily asčended from the pass in V 2 hr. ; guide 1 K. extra) and the Tiefenbachkogel , is fatiguing. — An attraetive but toilsome route leads over the Seiter-Jochl (10,030'; from Ilciligkreuz to Mittelberg 8 hrs.; two guides at 17 /f.), between the Innere and the Aeusserc Schioarze Schneide , to the Rettenbach Glacier , and thence by the Pitztaler Jochl (9830’), the Kaarles Glacier , and the Braunschweiger Hiitte. To the Kaunseh Tal via the Gepatsch-Joch (10,640'; 10-11 hrs. to the Gepatsch-Haus, spending the night at the Vernagt-Hiitte; two guides at 23 AT.), a difficult route. Better via the Kesselioand - Joch (10-11 lirs.; tvvo guides at 23 K.). From the (372 hrs.) Vernagt-HiiUe (p. 356) we ascend to the (2V 2 hrs.) Brandenburger Hans on the Kesselwand-Joch (10,750'; p. 327). The direct descent over the ‘Sumpf, or fissured central part of the Gepatsch glacier, is hazardous; we therefore make a Circuit to the left, in the direction of the Weissseespitze, and then turn to the right to the (21/2-3 hrs.) Rauhenkopf-Hiitte (8960'). Thence to the (2 hrs.) Gepatsch- Haus , see p. 338. _ The route from Vent over the Niederjoch (to Unser-Frau 7 hrs.; guide 13 K.; mule to the Sammoar-IIiitte 10, guide 4 K2) crosses the Niederlaler Ache and ascends its left bank, passing the (l^hr.) Ochsen- Hiitte (6990'), to the (^2 hr.) Schafer-Hutte or Klotz-Hutte (7370'). It then mounts above the tongue of the Mar- zell Glacier to the (1 hr.) Sammoar-Hiitte (8290'; Inn, 40 beds at 3 and 20 mattresses at 1.50 K.), splendidly situated opposite the Schalf and Mutmal Glaciers , which unite witk the Marzell Glacier, oneireled by the Marzellspitzen, Mutmalspitze, Schalfkogel, and Picmkogel.

The ' : 'Kreuzspitze (11,335'; 2 1 /2-3hrs.; guide 9 A.) is not difficult (except in deep snow). From the Sammoar-lliitte vve ascend steep grassy slopes to the (l 1 /* hr.) ruined Brizzi-Hiltte (9010'), and thence over dcbris, rocks, and snow to the (I 1/2 hr.) summit. Magnificent panorama of the Oetztal Alps, with a distant view of the Zillertal glaciers, the Tanern, Dolomites, Adamello, Ortler, Bernina, Silvrctta, ete. The descent may be made to the IIochjoch-Hospiz (p. 330; 2 hrs., guide 12 A.), across the lireuz Olacier (rnuch crevassed, caution advisable; guides and rope necessary). The *Schalfkogel (11,515'), 4*/2 hrs. (guide 12, to Gurgl 15 A.), is not very difficult for experts (comp. p. 333). We ascend the N. side of the Schalf Olacier to the (3^2 hrs.) Schalfkogel-Joch (ca. 10,990), between the Schalfkogel and the Kleinleitenspitze, and then mount by the narrow arete to the ( 3 /4 hr.) summit. A shorter but steeper ascent is over the Diem-Joch (10,830'), between the Hintere Diemkogel and the Schalfkogel (the direct ascent from Vent over the Diem-Ferner also crosses the Diem- Joch; 6 hrs. to the summit). — The "Similaun (11,835'; 4-4 1 /? hrs. from the Sammoar-Hiitte, or 2-2 1 /2 hrs. from the Similaun-Hutte; guide 11 or 9, with descent to Unser Frau 14, to Karthaus 17 A.) also offers no difficulty to adepts. The ascent may be conveniently combined with the passage of the Nieder-Joch. The superb vie\v extends on the E. to the Gross- Glockner, on the S. to the plain of Lombardy. and on the W. to the Bernese Alps. The descent to the (4-4V2 hrs.) Eishofe in the Pfossen-Tal (p. 331) is difficult. Other ascents from the Sammoar-Hutte are the Mutmalspitze (11,520'; 3Vz hrs.; guide 11 A'.); the Karlesspitze (11,390'; 5 hrs.; guide 11 A.), toil- some (better from the Karlsruher Hiitte, in 4hrs.); the Finailspitze (11,530'), over the Hausldb-Joch (10,825') in 4V 2 hrs. (guide 12 A.), difficult (better from the IIochjoch-Hospiz, in 4-5 hrs., or from the Schone Aussiclit, Inn, in 3 l /2-4 hrs.); and the Hintere Schv/drze (11,920'), over the crevassed Marzell-Ferner and the Marzell-Joch , or over the N. arete in 5 hrs. (guide 17 A.); difficult. We now traverse turf, debris, and the Niederjoch Olacier to the (2 hrs.) Niederjoch (9990'), between the Finailspitze and the Simi- laun (see above); on the S. side is the Similaun-Hutte (Inn, 12beds), affording a fine view of the Schnals mountains and the Ortler chain. We then deseend by a club-path, over steep rocky slopes, to the (2 hrs.) Tisenhof (5950'; inn) in the Tisen-Tal , and via {}j^ hr.) Ober-Vernagt (inn) to (1 hr.) Unser-Frau (p. 331). Other passes from the Sammoar Hut to the Schnalser Tal (ali toilsome and seldom traversed) are the Similaun - Joch (11,130'), between the Si- milaun and the W.

On the opposite si de is the old bed of the glacier, covered 'vvith debris (no longer visible from the path). The Gross-Vernagt Glacier (p. 326) ha,s frequently advanced rapidly so as to fill the whole valley and dam up the discliarge of the Hintereis and Ilochjoch glaciers. A lake called the liofensee was thus formed, the overil ow of whieh caused great devastation on several occasions, the last time in 1848. The glacier is again advancing. An ascent of 1 hr. more (Vith view of the Hintereisspitzen, Langtauferer Spitze, and Weisskugel) brings us to the Hochjoch- Hospiz (8100'; Inn, 54 beds at 3 A".), situated on the brink of the Ilochjoch Glacier. To the right are the Hintereis and Kessehaand Glaciers , \vith large moraines. The ‘ :: Weisskugel (12,290': toilsome), the second of the Oetztal Alps, is ascended from the Hoclijoch-IIospiz in 5 V 2-6 hrs. (guide 28, witk descent to the Schone Aussicht Inn 19, to Kurzras 22, to the Holler-Hutte 22, to the Weisskugel-IIutte 26 A' - .)- From the Ilospiz we cross the Hintereis Glacier by the ‘Oskar-Reuther^eg 1 (to the right the path to the Brandenburger Hans, p. 327) and ascend to the (4 x /2 hrs.) Ilintereis-Joch (11,370'), betwecn the Innere Quellspilze (11,530') and the Weisslcugel.

A marked path ascends along the Teufelseck (p. 344) to the Steinschlag Glacier , whieh it crosses to the (3V -2 hrs.) Joch (p. 344), and descends across the Oberettes Glacier to the (1 lir.) Holler-Hiitte .(p. 344). The new ‘high-level’ cluh-path over the Bild- stockl-Joch is easier. Turning to the left from the Oberettes path (see p. 344) on the Teufelseck, we cross the tongue of the Steinschlag Glacier ^no crevasses) and the E. arete of the Schwemser. After passing belovv £he Schivernser Glacier we ascend to the Bildstbckl-Joch (p. 344) and cross j-lie Langgriib Glacier down to the (5V2 hrs.) Holler-Hiitte.

Langlaler Eck (8040'), at the edge of the Langtal, high above the tongue of the glacier. The Gurgler Glacier (3580 aeres in area) until lately formed a barrier across the inouth of the Langtal and danimed up the discharge of the Langtal Glacier. A lake 1650 yds. long and 660 yds. broad was thus formed, the Gurgler Eissee (7755'), vvhich, like the Rofensee (p. 330), formerly caused disastrous inun- dations. Owing to the receding of the glacier the lake has now disap- peared. From the Langtaler Eck a new club-patli (guide 7 K., not essential) leads round the ScTticarzcnlamm , ivithout touching the glacier, to the (172- 2 hrs.) Karlsruher Hiitte. It is, however, better to follow the Ramol route (p. 333) from Gurgl for about 2 hrs. (finger-post), then descend to the left to the glacier and cross it (guide necessary, 7 K.) to the (172-2 hrs.) Karls¬ ruher Hiitte Fidelitas, finely situated near the Sleinerne Tisch (9460'; Inn, 2 beds and 10 mattresses).

The latter are barred in autumn, but are accessible on payment of a smali gratuity to the medi8evally attired watchers (‘Saltner’). Meran (1045'), with 11,000 inhab. (20,000 incl. Obermais and Untermais), the ancient Capital of Tyrol, occupies a delightfnl and sheltered situation at the base of the vine-clad Kiichelberg, on the right bank of the Passer, i/ž M- above its conflnence witli the Adigo. It is muoh frequented in winter on account of its dry and sunny climate (winter mean temp. 35.24° F.), and in autumn for the grape-cure. Good drinking-water is provided by an aqueduct im- proved in 1908. On the opposite bank of the Passer lie Untermais (0500 inhab.; p. 371) and Obermais (4000 inhab.; p. 371). The main thoroughfare of the new quarter near the raibway- station is the Habsburger-Slrasse, \vhich is eontinued on the S. of the old town to the Sand-Platz (p. 371). The Iicnnvceg, diverging to the N. opposite the Theatre, deflnes the W. boundary of the old town. A tablet on No. 28 in this Street (‘Graf von Meran’) marks the hotise in which Andreas Hofer was examined as a pri- soner before he was taken to Mantua (1810). — The business- quarter of Meran is the Laubengasse , a long Street intersecting the town from E. to W., flanked with areades (‘\Vasser-Lauben’ on the 8., ‘Berg-Lauben’ on the N.). In this Street, in the court of the Rathaus (No. 74), is situated the liurg, once the residence of the Counts of Tyrol, built by Duke Sigmund abont 1450. The interior Obermais. M UKA N. Map,p.3#8.~ IV. E. 61. 371 (adm. 60 h.'), restored in 18i9 aocording to a description dating from the reign of Mazimilian I. (d. 1519) and fitted up witli con- temporary fresooes, furniture, stoves, portraits, etc., presents an interesting illustration of the princely simplioity of the period. Behind the Burg are a srnall Art Ezhibition (9-11.30 and 2-7, Sun. 10-1; adm. 40 h.) and the W. end of the Tappeiner-Weg (see p. 372). — The Gothic Church (consecrated in 1367, completed in 1495), near the E. end of the Lauhongasse, has been thoroughly restored; on the exterior are a bronze relief of the Cruciflzion (1586) and other remarkable sepulchral tablets. — To the S. is the Sand-Ptatz (see p. 370), rvith a Column of the Virgin, comraem- orating the sufferings of the town during the rvar of 1797-99. The Pbomenades, on the broad embankment beside the Passer, with the ir fine old poplars, enjoy a full S. aspect and command a good view of the mountains of the Adige valley. The Oisela Promenade , rvith the Kurhaus (p. 369), is the cliief rallying-point of visitors, and is adjoined on the W. by the Stefanie Promenade , with the Protestant Church , tvhile to the E. is the sheltered Winter- Anlage, rvith a covered rvalk. Not far off is the Municipal Museum (adm. 50 h.; 10-12 and 3-5), containing antiquarian collec- tions, etc. The new Beichs-Brilcke crosses hence to the late-Gothic Spital-Kirche in Vntermais and to the Marie-Valerie Anlage, tvhich is continued by the Sommer - Anlage and is connected rvith the AVinter-Anlage by the Tappeiner-Steg. These grounds eztend along both banks to the Steinerne Steg , and, on the right bank, via the Gilf Promenade, with its luzuriant vegetation, to the gorge of the Passer, at the foot of the Zenoburg (p. 372). A beautiful vietv of Meran and the Adige valley is afforded by the * Tappeiner Weg, a path on the slope of the Kiichelberg, be¬ gi nnin g at the llot. Ortenstein and reached from the Steinerne Steg by ilights of steps or from the Gilf-Anlage by easy rvalks. The linest point of vietv is the terrace beside the mediaeval Poivdcr Tower. The path goes on past a marble bust of Dr. Tappeiner and the be- ginning of the Tiroler Steig (p. 372;- to the right) and finally de- scends in tvindings to the Burghof( p. 370), in the Laubengasse. At our feet erteiid Meran, Untermais, and Obermais. Beyond tbe last appears tbe little church of St. Katharina in der Šebarte (p. 375), and to tlie E., lorver down, tlie castles of Labers and Goyen, above rvbicb ri.ses tlie double-peaked Ifinger (p. 370), rvith the Hirzcr (p. 376) to the left. On a mountain -spur beyond Obermais, to the S.E., stands the Fragsburg fp. 373). Tbe precipitous Menile lehain, witli tbe Gantkofel, is conspicuous above tlie Adige vallev. To tbe S.rV. , beyond the Adige, is the Marlinger llerg, with Schloss Lebenberg. Obermais, on the hill on tlie left bank of the Passer, consists a! most exclusively of chateaux and villas (many of rvhieli are pensions), surrounded by gardens. llere are also the Elisabeth- (iarten, rvith a covered promenade and a bust of the poet Oskar von liedrvitz (d. 1891). To tke S., hetrveen theObemais road beginning at the old Church of Sl. Ceorge , and the Winkel-Weg, is Schloss Winkel. 24 * Schlo8S Tirol. 372 IV. R. 61. —Map,p. 36, S. MERAN. Farther aloug the ’Wiiikul-Weg is tli« Fram-Josefs-Park (band, see p. 369). To tke N. of the K.arl-Ludwig-Platz are Schloss Rottenstein, belonging to tbe Archduke Francis Ferdinand (garden generally open to the public), and the ivy-clad Schloss Greif en or Planta (1350'). In the S.E. portion of Obermais is Schloss Rubein, with its cypress- avenue and picturesque courtyard. Obermais is bounded on tbe E. by tbe gorge of tbe Naif , spanned by several bridges. An attractive walk (272 brs. tiiere and back) leads from the Sohenna road over the upper bridge over tbe Naif, tben up tlie Frags- burg road (p. 573), leaving tbe roads to Schloss Rametz and to Schloss labers (p. 06 9) on tbe right and left respectively, tben after 8-10 min. to the right, past the (restored) Chapel of St. Valentin to tbe Valentiner Hof (inn), at the Valentiner Brucke. Farther to tbe S. is Schloss Trautt- mannsdorff (1225'; restaurant at the foot), vvitli a park and a view-terrace at tbe back, whence we return to Meran via tbe Trauttmannsdorffer Brucke and the Winkel-Weg (see above). Excursion to Schloss Tirol (there and back ca. 3 1 /2 brs.; carriages see p. 370). The road (2>/2 M.) leads through the N.E. town-gate (Passeirer Tor), past the Zmoburg, witk its interesting 13th cent. Ilomanesquo portal, and thcn ascends (‘Kaiser-Strasse’) to the left over the Kiichelberg, where it merges in the stony old Tirol road. Pedestrians follow the Tappeiner- Wey (beginning be- liind the Burg, p. 371), and thence ascend to tbe left by the Tiroler Steig to the carriage-road, which they follovv to (1-1 i/ 4 hr.) Dorf Tirol (1955'; Zum Rimmele, with a terrace affording a beautiful view; Schloss Tirol; Sonne). \Ve next proceed along the slope, above the Brunnenburg (restored), traverse (f/ 4 hr.) the ‘Knappen- looh’, a tunnel 100 yds. long, and a short viaduct (passing several earth-pyramids in the ravine to the right), and in a few minutes reach the entrance to tlie castle, on the N.\V. side of the Kiichelberg. *Schloss Tirol (2095'; adm. 50 A.), originally a monastery, was eonverted about 1200 into the residence of the Counts of Tyrol, who gave their name to the wkole country but became extinet in the male line in 1253. It tben passed to the Counts of Gora and Tyrol, whose last heiress, Margareta Maultasch, abdicated in 1363 in favour of the house or Hapsburg. The building, dating in part from tlie 12th cent., after vvards fell into a dilapidated condition (largely ovving to a landslip in 1680), but is now kept under repair, while the tower bas been restored to its ancient height. The porch and the two interesting marble portals of the Rittersaal and of the chapel, the latter with Romanesgue reliefs, deserve special notice. Magniflcent view from the windows of the Kaisersaal, embracing the valley of the Adige and its mountains, with the Laaser Ferner to the S. W. Ileside the Schloss is a restaurant (view). — An agree- able alternative ronte for the return leads via the old churoli of St. Peter and the chateau of Turnstein (1810'; retrospect of Schloss Tirol) and thence by the new Konig-Laurin-Str., vrhicli descends in windings via Gratsch ( Restaurant Kircher) to (l*/ 4 hr.)

Map, p. 368,—IV. It. 61. 373 Among the numerous old castles visible from Meran that of 'Schenna or Schbnna (1925'), at the entrance to the Passeier Tal, built in the 12-16th cent., and'containing a collection of old weap- ons, Renaissance furniture, and portraits, and a few memorials of Andreas Hofer, is one of the most interesting and pictnresqne. The carriage-road thither leads via Obermais (p. 371) and then ascends to the W., below the height on which stands Schloss Goyen. Beyond the Stone bridge at Obermais pedestrians may follow the Lazag-Steig to the left for 10 min., then ascend the steep lane to the right to (1 hr.) T)orf Schenna (Schennaer Hof; Brunner’s Inn; Sohlosswirt). The Gothic Mausolcum, on a platform of masonry near the church, contains the tomb of Archduke John (d. 1859) and commands as fine a *View as the castle itself (fee to the steward). A pa,t.h, passing between the castle and the mausolemn, fiescenfis to the N. to the bridge at Rifjian (p. 345). The return to Meran (i 3 /4 hr.) from the castle may be pleasantly made as fo!lows. From Dorf Schenna we return hy the road to the (10 min.) Unlerdorf , then ascend to the left to the (5 min.) Oberdorf. and follorv the hillside, shaded by fine chestnuis and affording charming views of Meran, to the beautifully-situat,ed chateau of ('/2 hr.) Goyen (1995'; no ad- mittance).

Hallbauer , and finally describes a wide cnrve round the S. sidc of the castle-hill to the (l/ 2 hr.) *Fragsburg (2410'), rvhich commands a splendid view. Close hy is the * II6t.-Restaurant Schloss Fragsburg (24 heds at 3-5, B. 1, D. 3, pens. front 6 K.). About 1 i/ 4 M. farther on the Sinich-Bach forms a pretty waterfall. — In returning wo may descend to t.he left past (20 min.) Schloss Katzenstein (1525'; rfmts.), then to (i/ 2 hr.) the Lower Rametz-Bridge, and follow the Botzen road to (3/ 4 hr.) Meran. The chateau of *lebenberg (1675'), a large edilice of the 13th cent., with a massire square keep, charraingly situated in the midst of rich vegetation on a hill 4l/ 2 M. to the S. of Meran, is stil) in excellent preservation (now a plain inn).

The Vinschgau Road (tramway, see p. 370) leads from Meran to the N.W., passing St. LeonarcVs Church and the new Infirmarp , to the (2 M.) bridge (restanrant) o ver the Adige, immediately beyond which, on the right, is the chateau of Forst orVorst (1175'), re- stored and tastefully decorated since 1880 (visitors admitted on pre- senting their card). On the slope of the Marlinger Berg, to the left, is the small chateau of Josefsberg (1860'; pens. 5-6 K.; restaurant), reached in 25 min. from Forst. — The Vinschgau gradually ascends, passing the (l/ 2 M.) Forster Breiverg and the Meran Electric Works (line retrospect), and then descends in curvos to the (40 min.) so- called Roman Bridge (built in the 17th cent.), by -svhich it crosses the rapids of the Adige (p. 377), descending from the saddle of the Toll (1660'). Pedestrians may reach this point from Meran by following the ‘Kapellen- Steig’ (to the right, outside the Vinschgau Gate) via Doblhof to (1 hr.)

The finest part of the Stelvio road begins at Trafoi, remarkable alike for the boldness of its construction and for the magnificent survey of the glaciers of tho Ortler group. There are various short- cuts for pedestrians, but the road commands the flner views. The Unest point is (11 M.) the v Weisse Knott (6110'; restaurant), a plat¬ form \vith a marble obelisk erected to the memory of Josef Pichler (‘Passeirer Josele’), \vho, in 1804, rnade the first ascent of the Ortler. Facing us is the sombre Madatscli, to the right the Madatsch Glacier, and to the left the Trafoi and Untere Ortler Glaciers, separate 1 by the Nas- hornspitze and overlooked by the snowy summits of the Eiskdgel, Tliur- wieserspitze, Trafoier Eisvvand, and Sckneeglocke. More to the left, in the foreground, is the Pleisshorn with the Stickle Pieiss and Bergl-Hiitte (p. 380), above which rise the snowy slopes of the Ortler. Far belovv, amid dark pine-trees, lies the cliapel of the Three Holy Springs (p. 380), to which a footpath, diverging to the left, a few yards fartlier on, descends in hr. About 10 min. fartlier on is the spot (indicated by a marble tablet) where Madeleine de Tourville, an Englisli lady, was thrown down the slope and murdered by her husband, a Walloon, on 16th July, 1876. Farther on, opposite the superb Madatsch Glacier, is the (Y 4 hr.) Cantoniera dei Bosco. The zone of trees is now quitted and creeping-pines only are seen. Near — 13 M. Franz enshohe (7180'; Post-Alp en-Hotel, 35beds frgm 2, B. 1, D. 4, pens. from 8 It, good), the highest peak of the Ortler becomes visible for the first time. An easy path ascends, to the S.E. of the hotel, on the slope of the Vordere Orat , in l /z hr. to the Madatsch Glacier. A .splendid view, particu- larly striking by evening-light, is obtained hence of the precipitous glacier vvith the Ortler above it, the Trafoi valley, and the Oetztal glaciers. The view is stili finer from the Signalkuppe (8205 1 ; 1 hr.) and from the Signalkogel (9050'; 2 1 /2 hrs., with guide). ‘Drei-Ferner-Weg’ via the Bergl-Hiitte to (4 hrs.)

The ,;: Geisterspitze (11,405') may be ascended from the pass in 2V2-3 hrs. without difficulty by adepts (guide from Trafoi 14, with descent via the GeistSr Pass to Bormio 22/0). The route ascends graduallv across the Eben Glacier , between Monte Livrio on the left and the Naglerspitze on the right, to the N.W. base of the snow-clad ridge. Then a. steep asccnt to the narrow arete at the top, which commands an admirable view of the Ortler, etc. Far below lies the green Val Furva. To the left is the Eben Glacier.

The ascent of the :;: Piz Umbrail (9950'; l 8 /.i-2 hrs. from Santa Maria; guide, not indispensable in setlled weatker, 5-6 fr.) is higlily recommended. We diverge to the left from the road into the Miinster-Tal about 150 paces from the Dogana, follow a broad footpath for 175 paces, and then ascend the grassy slope, to the right, past a small lake (on the left) wliere a path from tlie Third Cantoniera (p. 383) joins our route. 5Vc now ascend the ridge by a stony zigzag patli (red marks) among rock s • be!ow us, to the toBormio. BATHS OF BORMIO. Map, p.386,-IV.R.62. 383 right, is the Umbrail Glacier. Tbe summit commands a superb view of the Ortler group, etc. (panorama in the Cantoniera). The road (constructed in 1898-1900) from Santa Maria to Santa Maiiia in the Munster-Tal (872 M.- Swiss diligence twice daily in summer in IV 2 hr., back in 3 3 /4 hrs ; ; 3 hrs.’ walk) crosses the O /2 M.) Umbrail Pass, or Wormser-Joch (8220'; Swiss frontier) and \vinds dmvmvard tlirough the mono- tonous Val Muranza. Avoiding the finai steep descent of the valley the road descends to the right in many windings, commanding views of the Munster - ’1 al upwards to the Ofen-Pass and 31.) Munster and (47*2 M.) Taufers to (IOV 2 M.) 31als or Glurns-Schluderns, see p. 3i4. We next reach the (II /4 M.) third Cantoniera al Piano del Braulio (7590'; Inn, well spoken of), near a chapel, and then the Casino dei Rotteri di Spondalunga (7105'), a house occupied by road-menders. The road descends in numerous \vindings, which the pedestrian can generally cut off. (In the gorge to the right are the falls of the Braulio , precipitated over rocky terraces.) We cross the Ponte Alto over the brook descending 011 the left from the Val Vitelli , and pass the (second) Cantoniera Bruciato (6495'). To the right rise the abrupt Mte. Braulio (9775') and Mte. Kadisca (9750'). The road skirts the mountain-slope and is carried through the Diroccamento (Wormser Loch) by covered galleries. Farther on is the (first) Cantoniera di Piatta Martina (5585'), beyond which tlie Adda daslies forth from the wild Val Fraele 011 the right and unites with the Braulio. Beyond the last gallery but one the valley and the road turn tovvards the S., and a beautiful *View is disclosed of the valley of Bormio as far as Geppina, especially fine towards evening. To the S.W. rise the Como di San Colombano (9915'), the Cima di Piazzi (11,280'), and the Cima Redasco (10,300'); to the S.K. are the Monte Sobretta (10,715') and the ice-pyramid of Piz Tresero (11,820'). The Bagni VeccM (4625'), or Old Baths of Bormio, now come into view, perched 011 the rocks below the road. Before the last tunnel is reached a road descends to them in zigzags (good accommodation ; open July ist-Sept. 10th, 80 beds at 2-4, B. 174 , pens. 7-972 fr.). About 72 M- farther down are the — 2972 M. New Baths of Bormio, or Bagni Nuovi (4395'; open May-Oct., 250 beds at 3-7, B. 11/ 2 , dej. 372 i D- 6 , pens. 10-18 fr.; visitors’ tax 6 fr.; post and telegraph Office), a handsome building on a terrace, commanding a fine view of the valley of Bormio and the surrounding mountains. About l 3 /4 M. farther on is the town of Bormio (p. 394). > Tlic baths include two swimming-baths, mud-balbs, etc. (plunge-bath 2, swimming-bath 2 l /-z fr.) aud are frequented mainly for rlieumatism, gout, feminine ailments, etc. The water (slightly radio-active aud impregnated with lime; 100-106° Fahr.) is brought in pipes from the old baths, to \vhich shady footpaths and a shorter carriage-road lead, in addition to the Stelvio road. The seven springs, mentioned by Pliny and Cassiodorus, rise in the Dolomite rocks above the gorge of the Adda, and vield about 220 gallons per minute. Behind the old baths is the entrance to the sliaft (100' long) of the St. Martin 1 s Therme , used for heat-cures (82-102° Fahr.). A visit should be paid to the old Roman Baths (Piscine) and to the Plinius Bom (Fonte ; used internally onlv), reached in 10 min. from the New Baths, by a path passing a \vaterfall of hot wafer. 384 lv.

Tresero, Cima di Piazzi, etc. About V* hr. farther on is the beautiful little Lago delle Scale (6345'; chalet; rfmts.), vvhere the bridle-track ends. From this point a climb of l 3 /4 hr., the last 72 hr. steep, brings us to the plateau of the Mie. delle Scale , with its two peaks. Magnificent view from the E. peak of the Ortler group, the Val Viola, Val Furva, and Valle di Sotto, while far belovv us are the gorge of the Adda and the Baths of Bormio. 63. The Martell-Tal. The Martell-Tal, or Mortell-Tal (21 M. in lengtli) affords the shortest route from the lower Vinschgau to Sulden. The lower part of the valley is rather monotonous, but the glacier-scenery at its head is magnificent. In the years 1888, 1889, and 1891 the valley was devastated by the outburst of the lake formed by the Zufall Glacier (comp. p. 385). — Guides: Joh. Oampper of Martell, Joh. Eberhofer , Jos. Eberhofer I and //, Matih, and Heinrich Eberhofer , Matih, liobald , Jos. Oluderei and Jos. \Veithaler of Gand, Mariin Ilolzknecht of Theirmiihle (see also the Sulden guides, p. 383). If the night lias been spent at Salt or Gand, the long walk to Sulden (10-11 hrs.) is fatiguing, the more so as the steeper portions must be faced during the midday heat. It is tlierefore advisable to spend a night in the Zufritt-Haus or the Zufall-Hiitte, and hrs. respectively from Goldrain (see p. 385). At the moutli of the valley lies the village of Morter (2285'; Itoter Adler, 10 beds at 1-1 K. 20 /*., well spoken of; Schwarzer Adler, 10 beds at 1 K.; Stocker, the landlord, forwards travellers’ luggage to the Zufritt-Haus dailyat !0/t. per kilogramme or2 1 / / 5lbs.), reached in 20 min. from Goldrain( p. 378), or in40 min. from Latsch (p. 378). On ahill to the left are the ruined castles of Vnter- and Ober - Montan (2750') and the ancient Chapel of St. Stephen , with interesting fresooes. The road(10 min.) crosses the brook and begins to ascend rapidly. Beyond some large marble-quarries we reach 01 4 / 4 hr.)

The 'Monte Cevedale ( Zufallspitze , 12,380'^ 772-8 h ra.; gnide 17 K.)- a magnificent point, is not difficult. It. is best attacked from the Hallesche Hiitte, where the niglit. is spent. so that the return may be made before the snow is softened by the sun. From the (2 lirs.) Schaubach-Hiitte (p. 388) we ascend to the S. over grassv slopes and debris. and then either to the right across the crevassed Sulden Glacier to the (2 hrs.) Eissee Pass; or (also with guide) to the left by the ‘■Albert Steckner-Weg’, a serpentine club-path (passage from the arete to the rocks often difficult m bad conditions of snow), to the (2 hrs.) * Eisseespilze (10,650'), which commands a splendid view (the huge Konigsspitze immedia 1 ely to the right seems to dwarf the Ortler). We now descend the snowy arete to the (20 min.) Hallesche Hiitte (10,280'; Inn, 12 beds and 20 mattresses) on the Eissee Pass. From the hut we ascend graduallv across the Langen Glacier and Zufall Glacier , leaving the Suldenspitze and Langenferner-Joch to the right, and mount the steep Cevedale ridge to the saddle between the central and the S. peak, whence we follow the arete to the ( 272-3 hrs.) S. and highest peak. (The Cevedale has three pealcs: the N. 12,220', the central 12,345’, and the S. 12,380'.) The ^Vievr vies with that from the Ortler, and is by many prefcrred, the Ortler group itself being seen to much greater advantage. To the S.W. the Adamello, Presanella, and Brenta Alp.s are conspicuous. At our feet, lic the Val Furva, Val della Mare, the Martell-Tal. and the Upper Vinschgau. — Adepts free from dizziness may ascend the three peaks of the Cevedale in one expedition (guide 24 K.)' — Descent by the Langenferner-Joch to Santa Caterina (5 hrs.; guide 27 K), see p. 393; bv the Zufall Glacier to Martell ( 4-472 hrs, to the Zufall-Hiitte; guide 2L K .), see p. 385. By the Vedretta la Mare , or over the FilrJcele-Scharte to the Cevedale Hut (p. 405) and to Peio (7-8 hrs.; toilsome; two guides at 32 K.). From the Cevedale a very fine high-level route, commanding splendid views, leads via Monte Rosole and Palon della Mare to the Motite Vioz (club-hut, see p. 405; guide 30 AT.). — Interesting high-level route also from the Hallesche Hiitte via the Eisseespitze , Butzenspitze , and Madri/schspitze to the Hintere Schbntaufspitze, with descent thcnce to the Schaubach-Hiitte ( 472-5 hrs.; guide 20 K.). The ascent of the "‘Konigsspitze (12,655’), the highest peak of the Eastern Alps next to_ the Ortler, is difficult, and /it for expert.s free from diz¬ ziness only (5-6 hrs. from the Schaubaeh-Hutte; guide 26 K., with descent to Santa Caterina 36 K.). From the (2 hrs.) Schaubach-Hiitte we cross the Sulden Glacier to ( 172-2 hrs.) the foot of the IConigs-Joch (10.810'; betvveen the Konigsspitze and the Kreilspitze), which we ascend in 3 / 4 -± hr. (very steep and difficult). This is the worst part of the route; caution necessary on account of the falling stones; wait until any preceding party has passed the Schulter. At the top^ wc turn to the. right to the Schulter (11,425'). a projection of the S.E. arete, when.ee a stifF climb over snow and ice, and finally over rocks and detritus, brings us to the (272 hrs.) summit.

From the Capanna del Cedeh (3V2 hrs. from Santa Caterina, p. 394) we ascend across the N.W. arin of the Cedeh Glacier to the Schulter (see above); thcnce to the left to the (5 hrs.) summit. —■ A more difficult ascent leads from the Rifugio Milano (p. 395). We cross the Zebrii and Miniera Glaciers to the (27c hrs.)

The :: Ortler (12,800'), the highest of the Eastern Alps, may be as- eended in 0 l /-z-l hrs. (guide 20, with descent to Trafoi 23 K.). The ascent is laborious, but \vhen the snow is in good condition presents no great difficulty to experienced mountaineers. The new path to the Payer-liutte (3i/z hrs.; red marks, but guide advisable for the upper part) leads to the riglit bcyond the ohurch and ascends gradually through vvood; after I hr. we reach the ‘Scherer-Weg’ (in shade after 4 p.m.), leading through the outer Ort.lerkar, for the first 3 /4 hr. across the liuge moraine of the Marii Glacier , and. thcn for hr. in zigzags over grassy slopes to the {2 l /i hrs. from Sulden) Tabaretta- Hiitte (8860'; Inn, 9 beds at 2 A.) on tbe Marlt- Sc/meid , a grassy arete on the left side of the Marlttal. The old path (guide necessarv) hence ascends the abrupt cliffs of the Tabaretta-Wdnde to the ( 3 /4 hr.) Tabaretta-Joch (see below), whereas tlie new bridle-bath (opened in 1911), skirting the Tabaretta-Wande, ascends gradually, finally in vvindings, to the ( 3 /*i hr.) Ddrenkopf- Scharte (ca. 9415'), commanding a magnilicent view to the .N., E., and W. Hence we have an' almost level path to the (20 min.) Tabaretta-Joch (9460*), where our route is joined on the right by the path from Trafoi (p. 380), and (20 min.) the magnificently-situated Payer-Hiitte (9910'; *Ijm , with new sleeping- house, 24 R. with 56 beds, and quarters for 40 guides; letters delivered in summer; telephone). From the hut we cross tlie Tabaretta Glacier to the (V-i hr.) ‘Šebarte’ below the Tabarettaspitze, whence a striking vievv is obtained of the Ortler, on tliis (N.) side entirely covered vvilh snow. We no\v round the slioulder of the Tabarettaspitze and follow a steep rocky path (‘ Hamburger IVeg’’), skirting a precipitous ice-wall, to the ( l /i hr.) Upper Ortler Glacier. Here vre ascend to the left by a new path (proteeted from falling stones; wire-ropes) through the rocks to the Tschierf- eck; tlien over the crest. of ndve, steep at places, to the highest plateau, passing to the right of the pealc, and aftervvards ascending it to the left, from the S. side. The (3 hrs.) summit Iies at the N. and highest point of a sharp ar S te ofsnow, about 60 yds. long. The *View is most imposing, embracing tbe Ortler group. the Tauern chain, the Alps of the Zillertal, Stubai, and Oetztal; E. the Dolomites with the Marmolata and Pala di San Martino; W. tlie Silvretta, Bernina, and Valais (Weisshorn) groups, the Bernese Alps, and the Todi; S. the Adamello and Presanella. The Ortler vvas ascended for the first time by the Passeier liunter Josef Pichler (see p. ^81) from Trafoi in 1804; in the follovring yearDr. Gebhard sealed it from Sulden via the Hintere Grat; in 1826 M. Schebelka, an officer of engineers, and in 1834 Thurwieser again made the ascent from Trafoi. Ho successful ascent was again made till the summit was attained via the Hohe Eisrinne (p. 380) in 1864 by Messrs. Tuckett and Buxton, also from Trafoi. In 1865, Or. von Mojsisovics and Julius Payer discovered the shorter route from Sulden, vrhich is now generally followed. — The Ortler was also sealed in 1873 l>y Harpprecht from tlie Sulden Glacier via the Harp- precht-Rinne; in 1875 by Otto Schiick via the Hochjoch (p. 393) and the Hochjoch-Grat; in 1879 by Schiick from the Fnd-der-Welt Glacier via the Schiick-Rinne; in 1878 by Prot.

Trent (630'), or Trento, Lat. Tridentum, with 30,000 inhab., once the rvealthiest to\vn in Tyrol, founded according to tradition by the Etruscans, and mentioned by Strabo, Pliny, and Ptolemy, is situated on the left bank of the Adige, over ivhich a bridge leads to the fortified rocky hill of Doss Trento (950'). It owed its early importance to its position on the Brenner road and at the junction of the road leading from Venice through the Val Sugana. It has belonged to Austria since 1814, huth with its numerous to\vers, marble palaces, and broad streets, stili presents ali the characteristics of an important Italian town. In the Piazza Dante (Pl. B, 1), the spačious square outside the station, rises a Monument to Dante , 57' in height, designed by Zocchi (1896): at the base of the pedestal is Minos, judge of the dead; in the centre, scenes from the Turgatorio’, with Dante and Virgil; and above, figures from the ‘Paradiso’. The Via Komana leads hence to the S., Crossing the *old Adige’, to the Via Lunga and the V ia Kodolfo Belenzani (formerly Via Larga), the two wide main streets of the town , containing several fine palaces. At the corner of the Via Lunga stands the former Palazzo Galasso (Pl. 4; O, 2), no\v the Palazzo Zambelli and occupied by a bank, built in 1581. — To the left in the Via Kodolfo Belenzani is the Palazzo Municipale (Pl. 2 j B, 2, 3), containing the Museo Comunale on the flrst floor (open 9-12 and 3-6 • closed on Sun. and holidays and from July 15th to Aug. 31st).

B, C, 3) is a Romanestjue basilica, founded early in the llth cent. and rebuilt by Adam d’Arogno (d. 1212), but not completed until the 16th century. The influence of Lombard clmrch-architecturo may be traced in the dome above the Crossing, in the elegant dvarf arcades, and in the portals vitli colnmns supported by lions. Many bishops have been buried in the interior, vhich contains also (S. transept; rear vali) the monument, partly in high relief, partly in the round, of tho Venet.ian general Sanseverino, vlio vas defeated by the Trentines at Calliano (p. 401) in 1487 and vas drovned in the Adige. — ln the Piazza della Posta is the Archiepiscopal Palače (Pl. 3; C, 3), to the N. of vbich is the Piazza delle Erbe, vitli a beautiful Renaissance fountain (early 16th cent.).

Čampo , Fiave, Ballino (p. 419), and Pranzo , to (6-7 hrs.) ltiva. The road crosses the Šarca and ascends along the rocky right bank in long windings, commanding a fine retrospect of the lake of Toblino. It then follows the windings of the imposing *Gorge of the Šarca (Tasso della Morte’), high above it, on the S. slope, and descends to (I 872 M.) the baths of Coniano (1200'; Hotel , open May-Oct., 100 beds at 1.50-3, D. 4, pens. 6-9 K .), useful for skin troubles and frequented by ltalians. Crossing the Duina we reach — 20 M. Ponte delle Arche (1315'; plain inn). To tke right a road (diligence twice daily in 1 kr.) leads kence across tke Šarca and ascends in vvindings to (2 l /2 M.) Stenico (2190'; H6t. Simo¬ nini , bed 1.40-4 AT.), tke ckief village of Lower Grudicaria, finely situated, and commanded by an old chateau (now a district court). The cavernous rocks of tke neighbourkood abound with waterfalls. O 11 tke W. side a steep path descends to tke kigkroad, 1 l /z M. from Ponte delle Arche. — From Stenico to Molveno , see below. Fkom MezzoLombardo to SteniCo, llkrs., a line route; an early start skould be made on account of tke keat. Tke carriage-road leading from Mezzolombardo (p. 403) to Molveno (in 6krs.) ascends to tke left at tke W. entrance of theRoccketta delile (p. 403), passing Spormaggiore and Andalo (see belovv). Pedestrians are recommended to take tke old road diverging to tke left at tke station of Fai (p. 403), l 1 /* M. to tke N. of Mezzolombardo, and ascending in numerous windings (at tke S. end of tke village is a short-cut, marked witk red and white, ascending in zigzags to tke left by tke cemetery), affording line views of tke terraced slopes of tke Val di Non and of tke mountains of tke Adige valley as far as tke Scklern. Beyond (7 1 /* M.) tke village of Fai (3150'; Alb.

On the right a road leads in vvide curves via D or sin o, Tavodo , Villa Banale (Carli's Inn), and Premione, to (12 M.) Stenico (p. 418) $ on the left a foot- patli leads along the mountain-slopes, soon higli above the Šarca, to Ramo (2440'), and then descends abruptly through vineyards, finally passing througli a gorge, to (2 l /*j hrs.) Castell Toblino (p. 417). Fkom Stenico to Campiglio, 67*2-7 hrs. A bridle-path ascends rapidly through the monotonous Val Dalgone, passing a ruined glass-vvork, to (4 hrs.) the Passo di Bandalors (6055'), to the S.E. of the Sabbione (p. 420). We then either cross the latter (ascent from the pass in s/ 4 lir ), or proceed through the Vallagola , past the small lake and the Malga Vallagola (52550, and descend into the Val Nambino and to (2 1 /z-3 hrs.) Campiglio (p. 413). — About 2Va brs. to the E. of the Passo di Bandalors (see above) stands the Iiifugio dei Dodiči Apostoli (81650, perched on the cliffs at the upper end of the Val Nardis, not fav from the Vallagola Glade?', whence the Cima di Vallon (9740 1 ), Cima di Vallagola (97100, and other peaks inay be ascended; the Cima Toša (10,4100, reached via the Vallagola Glacier, the Bocca dei Camosci (91350, and the Bocca d'Ambiez (9420') is difficult (descent to the Toša Hat, see p. 416). — A shorter route to Pinzolo from the Val Dalgone proceeds via the Gon Pass (50750, tlie Malga Stablej , and Massimeno (6 hrs. from Stenico). The Tione road ascends the right bank of the Šarca, passes helo\v Stenico, and enters a deep and romantic *Gorge, vvhere it crosses the river twice (tunnel). The valley expands. On the left bank are the villages of Ragoli and Preore. AVe pass through Saone , and cross the Arno to — 28 M. Tione (1855'; Cavallo Blanco , well spoken. of; Posta), the principal town of Giudicaria [(2800 inhab.). *— To the Lago d’Idr o, see pp. 423, 424. Fkom Riva to Tione by the Durone Pass (6V*-7 hrs.), a beautiful route from Tione shady in the morning, from Riva in the afternoon). The road leaves the town by the Porta San Marco on the N., and gradually ascends the hillside (short-cuts for vvalkers). To the right lies the fruitful valley of Arco, and behind is the Lago di Garda. Farther on the road threads the Val Varone (higli on the opposite slope of which lies Tenno, with its castle, p. 427) to (4Va M.) Pranzo (1520 1 ), and then divides. We follovv the road to the right (red marks), always ascending rapidly. and then cross the Val Varone. Near the (IV2 M.) pretty Lago di Tenno (1845*) a road di- verges on the right to the («/4 M.) hamlet of Ville del Monte , whence the Lomason (5920' 5 magnificent vievv) may be ascended in 3 l /2-4hrs.. with guide. — The little village of (3 M.) Ballino (2460' ^ Inn, unpretending) is situated on the watershed. About 1 M. farther on the direct route to Tione diverges to the left from the road to Ponte delle Arche (p. 418) and skirts the slope. After 3 h hr. we descend, cross the Dnina, ascend again to (20 min.) Cavrasto (2335 1 ) and (keeping to the left) to the (1 hr.) Durone Pass (3390'), which commands an admirable vievv of the S.E. peaks of the Adamello 5 to the right is the Car& Alto vvitli the Vedretta di Lares; at our feet lies the Val Šarca. The path novv descends to (1 hr.) Zuclo (1950') and ( x / 4 hr.) Bolbeno (1875'), crosses the Arno, and ascends to (V 2 hr.) Tione. The Val Šarca here turns towards the N., and this part of it is called the Val Rendena. At (30V 2 M.) Villa Rcndena (1990') the Val di Sari* Valentino opens 011 the" left, through \vhich a fatiguing route leads over the Passo di San Valentino (9080') into the Val di Pumo (comp. p. 423).

Rear the top is a club-hut (6800 r ; generaily closed). The descent may be made by the Passo di Bandalors into the Val Dalgone and through the Vallagola (p. 419) to Campiglio (p. 413; hence to the lop 3- 3V2hrs., easiest ascent). From Pinzolo to Campiglio, 8*/2 M- (motor-car tvvice daily in 1 hr., 4 K.; one-horse carr. for 1 pers. 7, 2 pers. 9, tvvo-horse 14 K. and fee). The road, passing the chapel of San Vigilio (see above; Carisolo lies to the left), ascends the Val Nambino to the N.E., and follows the left bank of the Šarca di Campiglio to the (2 M.) bridge above the mouth of the Val Nambron (guide-post indicating the way to the Rifugio Segantini, p. 423). It then ascends in vrindings (footpaths shorter) to (4'/ 2 M.) Sant ’ Antonio di Mavignola (3700'; Inn), beyond which it follovrs the N. side of the Val Nambino (oppo- site rises the Brenta oliain, behind us the Lares Grlacier), deseribing some wide curves about halfway and linally Crossing tlie Šarca, to (S 1 /« M.) Madonna di Campiglio (p. 413). A very fine eseursion may be made from Pinzolo into the *Val di Genova (to Bedole 5 hrs., thence to the Mandron Hut 2i/ 2 hrs.; guide, unnecessary, to Bedole 8, to the Mandron Hut 12 Ah). Driving is not recommended on account of the rouglmess of the road (one- horse carr. to Ponte di Lares 8, two-horse 16 K. and fee). Tlie narrow road leads to the N.W. through the broad valley to the (25 min.) chapel of Santa Maria de’ Poveri. Here ve ascend to tlie right, by a paved pilgrimage-path, to the (10 min.) church of-Santo Stefano, standing on a projecting hill (2815') and emhellished vvith frescoes of 1519 and 1534, including a Dance of Death with ex- pianatory verses. We next reach (10 min.) a saw-mill at the be- ginning of the lovrest part of the valiey. To the right are massive boulders, vrith the cliffs of the Presanella rising above them; in Giudicaria. VAL Dl GENOVA. Map,p. 414 .— IV. R. 70. 421 front is the Crozzon di Lares, with tlie Corno di Cavento and (far- ther on) the Crozzon del Diavolo adjoining it on the left. To the right (V 2 hr.) is the line Cascata di Nardis , 330' high, divided into two leaps (to the Presanella Hut, see p. 423). The road now asoends to a higher part of the valley. On the left opens the Val Seniciuga, with its dark woods and its waterfalls descending from the little Lago San Giuliano (6335'), where St. Julian is said to kave once done penance. The Šarca forms some foaming rapids at this point. We proceed past the Fontana Iluona (good spring, to the right) to the ( 3 /j hr.) Osteria Fontana Buona (4 heds at 1.40 K., vvell spoken of), beyond vvhich is a bridge over the Šarca (3585'; marked path to the Lares Hut, 3 hrs., see p. 422). We do not cross this bridge, but cross to the right bank 20 min. farther on, beyond the month of the Lares torrent, tvkere the carriage-road ends. The cart-track then ascends rapidly through wood on the right bank to (25 min.) the Albergo Ragdda (4 beds at 1-1.00 K. , well spoken of), vvhence a fine view is obtained of the Brenta chain to the E. and the Busazza to the N.W. We now cross lirst the Fargorida torrent, which forms a picture3C[ue fali on the left as it issues from a rocky gorge, and then the Šarca, and reach the Alpine hamlet of Tedesca (4130'), beyond which we ascend the left bank (on the right bank is the iinely situated Malga Muta, 4460') to ((/2 hr.) the Malga Caret (4655'). Our path now rounds the Mte. Menicigolo (8565'), for the most part ascending through wood; 011 the right totver the formidable precipices of the Presanella. Soon a view is disclosed of the bluish Mandron Glacier. I 11 I 1/4 hr. we reach the broad grassy basin of Bedole (5120'), at the ((/4 hr.) W. end of vvlricli is the Casina Botognini of the Trent Alpine Club (5280’; Collini’s Inn, plain). A fine view of the Mandron and Lobbia glaciers is obtained from the patb to the Mandron Hut (see beiow), above the limits of the wood (ca. V 2 hr.). — A pleasant walk may be taken by a path (red marks), diverging to the left from the bridle-path to the Mandron Hut, to the (20 min.) point where tile Šarca, issuing from the above-menlioned glaciers, descends through a rocky cleft. The path goes on vid the Venezia Alp (5380 1 ) to ( 3 /4 hr.) the Alalterot Alp (5780 f ), at the base of the Lobbia Glacier. — The Busazza (10,920') muy be ascended from Bedole-in 7-8 brs.

Riva (230'), a busy harbour witli 8000 inliab., is situated at the N.W. end of the Lago di Garda, and is dominated on tlie W. hy the precipitous Roce/ieMa(5010'), on the slope of which a deoayed tower [Baatione; 5 / 2 hr., fme view) recalls the period of the Vene- tian dominion. At midday the heat is tempered by a cool wind from the lake (the so-called Ora}, and in the afternoon the town lies in the shadow of the hills.— The centre of traffie is the Piazza Benacense, at the harhour, with a massive old clock-tower. The houses have areades on the grouudfloor. To the E. lie the small Piazza Carducci and the barracks of La Rocca, surrounded by a moat, on the site of a castle of the Scaligers. To the N. of the Rocca is the Piazza Brolo, whence an avenue of palins and magnolias leads to the E. to the station, and the narrow Via del Vento to the N., past the parish church of Santa Maria Assunta, and through the Porta San Michele to the Via Roma and the church of the Inviolata, a handsome baroque edi&ce of 1603. Thence the road goes on to Arco. Excursions. The Fali o f the Ponale is best visil ed by motor-boat (20min.) or rowing-boat ( 3 / 4 hr. ; see above), landing near the fine lower fall (adm. through the restaur&nt, 20 h.). We aseend hence past the Riva electric worlcs and three _smaller artiiicial waterfalls, on tbe S. side of the Ponale gorge, to the (25-30 min.) Kaiser-Weg, leading up to Pregasina and the Ponale bridge (see below). If the visit to the lower fall be omitled, we may take the direct route from Riva, along the ‘"Ponale Road (shady in the afternoon). Tliis road is carricd along the precipitous face of tlie rocks by means of tunnels and galleries and affords, particularly in the after¬ noon, a succession of magnificent views of Riva, the Šarca vallev as far as the castle-rock of Arco, and of Torbole and the upper end of tlie lake, with the Altissimo (p. 428). In 50 min. we reach the modest liestaurant Belvedere , 2 min. below which is a terrace atfording a splendid view of the Ponale falls (adm. 20 h.). A little farther on the highroad ascends in windings to the Val di Ledro. Just beyond the restaurant a path diverges from the highroad and leads to the Ponale Bridge , wliere the stream issues from the Val di Ledro in a narrow gorge. We tlien aseend (on the left the path to the landing- place, see above) to tlie (20 min.) view-point near Pregasina (1760’*, good view of tlie lake), whenee \ve mav r mount, to the S.W. along the vrooded slope of the Mte. Guil (4335') to the (2 lirs.) Roccolo di Nemira (8410’; splendid y i ew). In descending we make a wide detour via Malga Valacco and tlirougli ilio, Svngol Gorge to (2 hrs.) Limone (p. 431). From the highroad running to the N.W. from the Porta Sau Marco a Comn. 4 times daily • tramway under construction) leads to the riglit to (3 M.) Varone (405'), with a fme waterfall in a grand rocky gorge (adm. 40/i., withElectric light, 1 K.; cloak desirable on account of the spray). 1 hence vre may proceed either by road via Ceole to (3 M.)

On tlie former Olivo Hotel is a memorial tablet to Goethe (1786). In the Šarca there is an intcresting fish-breeding establishment (Pescicoltura). Abovc Torbole are olive groves; 5 min. to the N.E., on the road to Nago (p. 425), is a rock commanding a fine vie\v over the lake. Monto Brione (1235'), a strongly fortilied hill to the E. of Riva, is accessible as far as the (1 kr.) Belvedere only, near the S. battery. Splendid view over the whole lake. lhe path, which diverges near tlie Fort San Niccolo from the Torbole road, is indicatcd by linger-posts. The ascent of the Monte Baldo, a range 25 M. long, between the Lake of Garda and the valley ot the Adige, is very interesting and full of varietj', but rather fatiguing; the flora is renowned among botanists. It consists of two distinct ranges separated by the depression of the Bocca di Navene (4690'), one culminating in the Altissimo on the N. and the other (Monte Maggiore) in the Cima Val Dritta (7275') and the Punta del Telegrafo (7220') on the S. The easiest route to the ''Altissimo (6790') ascends on the E. side from Mori (p. 402) to (2 hrs.) Brentonico (2275'; Alb. Mte. Baldo); thence, vvith guide, over the Alpine pastnres of (lty* hr.)

About 5 min. beyond the Alp is the only spring in the neighbourhood. — We may go on from the Altissimo via the Bocca di Navene (see above) and the Artilone Alp (6285'; inn) to the (4-5 hrs.) Monte Maggiort. The descent. from the Bocca to Navene is very steep and should be avoided; it is better to proceed farther S. to the Bocca Tratto Spini (5645') and descend thence via the linely-situated Malga Piombi (3800') to Malcesine (p. 429). The ascent of the *Monte Maggiore is best made from the S.E. side. From the railway-station of Peri (p. 402) we proceed across the Adige to Rivalta and (s/ 4 hr.) Brcntino , tlien ascend a steep path (in shade in the afternoon) 1o the right to the (2 hrs.) pilgrimage-church ot Madonna della Corona (2540'), and thence via Spictzzi (2830'; Alb.

The } Lago di Garda (215'), the Lacus Benacus of the Romans, 34 M. long, 3-11 M. broad, and 1135' deep at its deepest point, is almost entirely in Italy, a small part at the N. end, incl. Riva, alone belonging to Tyrol. The mountains at the N. end are lofty and abrupt, but slope gradually towards the S. until they are lost in the vast terminal moraine of the ancient Garda Glacier, bordering 011 the great plain of Upper Italy. The water of the lake is of a striking azure blue. Steamboats (furnished witk tolerable restaurants) ply 3-6 times daily along the W. bank (Riva-Desenzano) in 4-57 4 krs.

From Wolkenstein to Cokvara over the Grohnkr Jocii, 3-3V2 to- (guide, unnecessary, 9, horse 12 A.). From Plan we follow a marked path to the E. , skirting the Freabach , at first 8teeply through wood, and then more gradually aeross the pastures of the Plan de Frea , with the Sella on the right, and the Rotspitzen and Tschierspitzen on theleft, to the (172hr.)

Colfosco and Corvara (p. 490). The Hochste Tschierspitze (8465'; attractive) may be ascended without difficulty in IV«br. from the Grodner Joch (club-path, wire-rope; guide 5ir.). From Wolkenstein to Corvara via Crespeina (5-5V* h ra.-, guide from St. TJlricb. not indiapensable, 18 K.; marked path), more interesting than the preceding route, though also more fatiguing. Weproceed to the W. to the (20 min.) Restaurant & Pens. zum Langen Tal (9 R., bed 2, pens. from 7 7f., \vell spoken of), in a pretty situation at the entrance of the Lange-Tal ; at the (5 min.) chapel we aseend steeply to the right to the vallev of Rediti and tlience between the Rotspitzen and Tschierspitzen on the right and the Mt. de Soura on the left to the (2 1 /* hrs.) Crespeina-Joch (8340*), wliich commands a good view of the curiously rifted plateau of the Crespeina and Puez Alps. To the W. is a good retrospect, of the Ortler and Oetztal Alps. (Before the ascent to the pass a marked path mounts to the right over tlie Tschierjochl , hetween the Tschierspitzen and the Col Turond, to the Grodner Joch, H /2 hr., see ahove.) The descent leads past the little Crespeina Lake to (1 lir.) the roclcy saddle of the Gabel ( Ciampei - Joch; 7835'), wliere our route is joined bv the path from the Puez-IIutte (see below). Beyond the saddle the path descends steeplv to the small Chiampatsch Lake (7210’) and past tlie Sass Songher (p. 490), whence we reach Colfosco and (IV 2 hr.) Corvara (p. 490). > From Wolkenstein to Corvara via tiie Puez-Hutte ( 51/2 hrs., with guide, 18 K.), less interesting tban the preceding route. We aseend the Lange-Tal (edelweiss found on the scree-slopes on tlie !Sr.W. side) as far as (1 hr.) Pra da Ri (5925'), where we diverge by a steep marked path, to the left, to the Puez Alp and the (2 hrs.) Puez-Hutte (8070' ; p. 490); or from Pra da Ri \ve may follovv the Lange-Tal to its head, whence a steep and laborious ascent over ddbris leads to tlie Ciampei-Joch (see above). To Camtitbllo over the Sex.la-.Toch (i l /o hrs.; path marked; guide, uimecessary, 10 K.; horse to the pass 8 K. and fee), a very attractive route. From Han the bridle-path ascends to the right aeross tlie Kreuz-Roden to the (13/ 4 hr.) Sellajocli-Haus (7150'; *Inn, 36 heds at 3-4 K., good cuisine), at the foot of the Langkofel, and to the (4 min.) Sella-Joch (7276'), with a splendid view of the Marmolata on the S. E., the Sella group on the E., and the Langkofel, Funffingerspitze, and Grohmannspitze on the W. (to the S., 1 min. helow the pass, is the Jocli-Hospiz, a good inn). ■—A stili finer view may he enjoyed from the *Col Eodella (8155'), easily ascended from the Sella-Joch (to the S.W.) in 3/ 4 -l hr., via the Forcella diRodella (7575'). On the top, which is enclosed hy a fene,e (adm. 20 /*.), stands Dialers Rodella-Haus (19 heds at 3 AT., good), ivith view-ter- race on the roof (telescope, 20 h.'). — From the Forcella (see ahove) we may descend to the S."W. hy a somevvhat steep but vvell-kept path (marked; edelveiss) to (li/ 2 hr.)

Excursions (guides, Josef, Bernhard , and Eeinrich Messner , Mariin Petin , and Eeinrich Mulser , of S e is • Franz and Karbon , of Ratzes). — Bad Ratzes is situated at tlie W. foot of tke Seiser Alp, a lofty and undulating grassy plateau, 5865'-7140' in keigkt, 12 M. long, and 9 M. broad, bounded by tke Eisak-Tal on tke W., tke Grodner Tal on tke N., tke Schlern and Rossziihne on tke S., and tke Langkofel and Plattkofel on tke E. It is tke largest pasture in Tyrol, and is sprinkled witk about 100 ckalets (Sckwaigen) and 400 liay-skeds. About IV 4 kr. above Ratzes (2 krs. from Seis or Kastelrutk), to tke E., on tke rigkt bank of tke Fromm- back and at tke S. base of the Puflatsch, is tke °E6tel Fromtnerhaus (5(345’; open in vrinter also, 30 beds at 2-3, pens. 7-10 K.), surrounded by wood and commanding a fine vievv of the Scklern.

Tkence tke patk ascends gradually to tke E., rounding tke Gh'iinser-Biihel (7135’) to tke (2 hrs.) Malilknecht-Sdmaige (6735’; inn) and tke (20 min.) Seiser Alpenhaus (p. 440). Tkence over tke Mahl- knecht-Joch to tke Duron Vallei/, see pp. 440, 451. From Ratzes to the Schlern, '4 1 /2-5 hrs. (gnide, 8 K ., not in- dispensable). We ascend by the Touristensteig (bridle-path, winding up to the right at the tin placard, i/ 2 hr. farther on) through the ravine of the Frdtschbach to (3 hrs.) the Schlern plateau and (^hr.) the Schlern-Hauser (see below); or, diverging to the left from this route at the tin placard (see above) and Crossing the Frotschbach, we may ascend the ‘Prossliner Steig’ through wood to the (1 hr.) Prossliner Schwaige (6705"; 26 beds); thence to the top 2-21/2 hrs. — The huge dolomite mass of the *Sch.lern is composed of the grassy and sometimes marshy, undulating Schlern plateau and several rocky peaks surrounding it. In the middle is the higliest summit, called the Alt- Schlern or Petz (8410'); to the N.W. the Oahels (7830') and the Junge-Schlern (7435'); to the N. are the Burgstall (8240'), the Euringer-Spitze (7830'), and the Santncr- Spitze (7920'). On the slope of the Alt-Schlern above the plateau are the three * Schlern-Hauser of the Botzen Alpine Club (8040'; *Inn, 120 beds at 4, 30 mattresses at 2 K.~). An easy path leads hence in 20 min. to the summit, which commands a magnificent panorama, comprising the Dolomites and the chain of the High Alps from the Cima Toša, 011 the S.W., to the Hohe Tauern on the N.E. (corap. the adjoining panorama). About !/ 4 lir. along the stony ridge to tke W. of tke summit we get. a striking view of Seis and Kastelrutk through the wild Seiser Klanim , a gorge separating the Junge Scklern from the Burgstall. The shortest ascent from Atz\vang leads via (l 3 / 4 kr.) tke finely situated village and summer-resort of Vols (2980'; '■Post or Kreuz , 25 beds from 1 K. 20 h., pens. from 4 A.; Wenzenoirt, well spoken of; Vol ser hof; Turin; Dr. Jos.

Schlern-H duser. From the Weisslaiin-Bad ( 3 /^ lir. from Tiers ; see below) several routes ascend to tlie Schlern: one by the Barenfalle , another by the Jungbrunn- Tal , and a third by the Zipperlen-Steig through the Bletschen - Tal (each 4-4 ! /2 hrs. to the Schlern-Hauscr; toilsome in places; guide 8, to Vols 10, to Seis, St. Ulrich, or Campitello 16 K.). Most travellers prefer the path tlirougli the wild and pictures^ue Jungbrunn-Tal , which diverges from tlie Tschamin-Tal 3 / 4 lir. above the Weisslahn-Bad (p. 4415 guide-board). We cross the Tscliamin-Bach and ascend the gorge by a marked club-path (ladders at the steepest points), finally mounting by a zigzag path to the plateau and tlience aeross. the Schlern-Graben to tlie Schlern-Ilauser. — Tlie route tlirougli the Barenloch and vid Rote Erde (see below) is about 1 hr. longer and scarcely less fatiguing. From tiie Schlhun-IIauser to the Grasleiten-Hutte (vid the Barenloch 3V2hrs., or over the Molignon Pass 4 hrs.) or to Campitello (5 hrs.-, guide 5 or 8 /C, not indispensable in settled \veather). About 5 min. to the 15. of the Schlern-IIauser we diverge from the ‘Touristensteig’ (p. 439) to the riglit and traverse the Schlern Alp , following the cairns on 'tlie slope to the riglit in the direction of the Roterdspitze (8704') until we reacli (1 hr.) the top of the pass (8410'), witli a retrospcct extending to the Tauern range (more ex- tensive ,;, View from the summit of the Roterdspitze, B/2 hr. from tlie Schlern-IIauser). Descending by a stony path below the Roterdspitze, we then traverse the Tierser Alpl (7695'), on which (V2hr.) the path forks: to the right. descent to the Biirenloch (p. 441 ; guide convcnient for those sub- .ject to dizziness; H/2 hr. to the Grasleiten-Hiitte , p. 441) $ to the left, to the (20 min.) Tierser-Alpl-Joch (8040'), whero the path to the Molignon Pass diverges steeply to the right (2 hrs. to the Grasleiten-Hiitte, see p. 442). On the left rise the serrated Rosszdhne (8705'). Follovving tlie path straight on and skirting the head of the Duron Vallev (see below) to the left, we descend to the ( l /z hr.) Seiser Alpenhaus (70Š0'; *Inn i 45 beds at 3, D. 3, pens. 7-8 /f.), pleasantly situated, \vith a postal Service in summer (pack- liorses from Campitello daily in 2 hrs.), a chapel, and Alpine garden. (Tlience over the Seiser Alp to Ratzes or St. Ulrich, see p. 439; over the Palaccici to the Sellajoch-llaus, see p. 437.) We novv re-ascend to the S.E. to the (10 min.) Mahlknecht-Joch (7115’), vvhenco we descend to tlie Soricia Alp and by the Duron Valley (fine views of the Fassa Dolomites, the Marmo- lata, etc.) to the Duron-Tal Inn and (2V2 hrs.) Campitello (p. 451). b, The Tierser Tal. From the Grasleiten-Hiitte to the Val di Fassa viž, Vajolet. Perhaps the most impressive scenery among the W. Dolomites is to be found at the head of the Tierser Tal, which stretches up tovvards the Roscngarten. A carriage-road (omn. from Blumau to the "VVeisslahn-Bad tvvice daily in summer in 4-4 x /2 hrs., in the reverse direction in 2-2^2 hrs., fare 6 K. : descent 3 K. 20 h.; carr. and pair 20, from Botzen 32 K.) extends as far as (7V2M.) the 1 Veisslahn-Bad, whence a path goes on to the (3-372 hrs.) Grasleiten-Hiitte. IIighly interesting passes lead from the head of the Tierser Tal to the Fassa-Tal and the Grodner Tal. Blumau (1035'), see p. 358. The narrow road ascends along the Breibach to the (3 M.) Zoll Inn (2120'), and then to the left (steep tn places; view of the Rosengarten towards the end) to (3 3 / 4 M.) Tiers (3345'; Rose; Krone, with veranda, good; Lowe ), a pleasantly situated village. The road tlience Ieads high ahove tlie Breihach to the (1 t/a M.) chapel of St. Cyprian (3560'; splendid view of the Rosengarten chain), and then ascends the Tschamin-Tal, to the left, to the ( 8/4 M.)

At the Steger Sawmill (4015') the path crosses the Tschaminbach and ascends steeply through wood, with the Mittagkofel and Tscha- fatsch opposite (to tlie N. ; hetween them, the Biirenfalle, p. 440); farther on it crosses the stream and passes the mouth of the Jung- brunn-Tal (p. 440), and then, after Crossing and recrossing the stream, reaches the (I 1/2 hr.) Redite Leger (Ochsen Alp, 5225'), at the mouth of the Bletschen-Tal (p. 440), where we obtain a view of the Grasleitentunu, Talbuonkopfe, and Sattelspitzen. Crossing tli c wooded ridge to the wild cauldron of the Barenloch , we reach (1 hr.) a point (ca. 6235'; guide-post) where tho path forks, the left branch ascending steeply to the Tier.ser Alpl (p. 440), the right branch (equally steep) running along the slope of the Grasleiten- turm, high above the ravine, to the (% hr.) Grasleiten-Hiitte of the Leipzig Alpine Club (7105'; 38 beds at 4 and 28 mat- tresses at 1.20 .KV), finely situated, with a striking view of the Grasleitenturm and Grasleitenspitzen on the N., the Antermoja- kogel and Seekogel on the E., the Talbuonkopfe on the S.E., and the Presanella and Ortler group towards the W., above the profound Tierser Tal.

To the (3 l /4 hrs.) bifurcation in the Baren- loch , see p. 441. We take the marked path to the left and mount by the Stiege , a steep natural rock-stairway, to the (1 hr.) Tierser Alpl. Thence to the Seiser Alpenhaus , see p. 440. From the Grasleiten-Hutte to Campitello via the Molignon Pass, 5-572 hrs., club-path (guide 10 AT., not indispensable for adepts if therS is not too much snow). The path ascends to the left in zigzags from the Grasleiten- Kessel to the (I 72 hr.) Molignon Pass (8530'), betvveen the Molignon (N.W. peak) and the N.E. Grasleitenspitze (ascended from the pass in 72 hr. and 20 min. respectively, see p. 441), and thence descends steeply, skirting the W. edge of the snow-field, to the O /2 hr.)

Grasleiten Pass (8520'), between the Kesselkogel (left) and the Kleine Valbuonkogel (right; see p. 441), with a striking view of the vrild and imposing Vajolet- Tal with the Ya t jolet-Tiirme, Rosengartenspitze, etc. From the pass, -vvhence the path to the Antermoja Pass (p. 443) ascends to the left, we descend to the right into the stony upper Vajolet-Tal , passing the foot of the stupendously bold Vajolet-Turme, and reacli ( 3 / 4 hr.) the finely situated Vajolet-Hiitte of the Leipzig Alpine Club (7400'; Inn , 25 beds at 4 and 28 mattresses at 1.20 AT.). Ascents (guides, see p. 441; Piaz , the hut-keeper, also; tarifi" from the Vajolet-Hiitte). The Rosengartenspitze (9780'; 3-372 hrs.; guide 12 K.) is difficult and should be attempted only by climbers with steady heads. From the Vajolet-Hiitte we ascend by a good club-path througli the Gartl- Schlucht to the (P /2 hr.)

Santner Pass (8880'; splendid view) and fmally by a very steep and difficult scramblc to the left to the (l-F /2 hr.) summit (magni- ficent panorama). The ascent of the Rosengartenspitze from the W. side is made via the Santner Pass also (night spent at the Hanicker - Schioaige, p. 443, or the Kolner Hiitte , p. 446), but is longer and more toilsome (guide 18 K.)! The ascent via the S. arete or the E. face is very difficult. — The Vajolet-Tiirme (in the N.group: Hauptturm , 9255’; Nordturm , 9220'; Ostturm , 9230'; in the S.W. group : Stabelerturm , 9205'; JDelagolurm , 9120'; Winklerturm , 9185') are (with the exception of the Nordturm, guide 16 K.) very difficult and should be attempted only by thoroughly expert climbers with steadv heads (the Delagoturm and Winklerturm.are the most difficult). The best, view of the Vajolet-Turme may be obtained from the Laurins Pass, which is easily reached in 20 min. from the Gartl over ddbris. The Kesselkogel (98457 3 hrs.; guide 8 K.), Cima di Lausa (9440'; 2p 2 hrs.; guide, unneeessary, 6 K.), and Scalieretspitze (9480'; 272 hrs.; guide, un- necessary, 6 K.) may also be ascended from the Vajolet-Hiitte (comp- p. 441). — The Cima detle Pope (9125'), over the Passo detle Pope in 2-3 hrs.

Strictly speaking, tke term Dolomite belongs to the Fassa Mts., the Langkofel, Rosengarten, and Schlern, but does not apply to the Cristallo, Hohe Gaisl, Tofana, Sorapis, Antelao, Pelmo, and other peaks of the Ampezzo Limestone Alps; but as these mountains are \videly kno\vn as the ‘Ampezzo Dolomites’, the popular nomenclature is adhered to in the Handbook. Alike to the man of Science and the monntaineer the curiously fissnred Dolomites offer a rich and varied tield of interest, in their innumerable large and small peaks, pinnacles, and canons. The Ampezzo Road (Ital. Strada d'Allemagna') quits the Puster- tal at the Toblach station (3975'; p. 471), leads due S., betvveen the Sarlkofel (p. 472) on the right and the Neunerkofel (8420 / ) on the left, into the Hohlenstein-Tal , watered by the Rienz , and passes the Toblacher #ee(4130'; *See-Hotel, May-Sept., 50 beds at 2.20-5, pens. 7-10 K J). The valley soon contracts to a wild gorge. To the left opens the Birken-Tal (p. 493) and on the same side, farther on, the Klausenkofel (Nasse Wand , 7375') is conspicuous; to the right the jagged spurs of the Diirrenstein (p. 497). The view up the valley to the S. is bounded by the Mte. Pian (see p. 496). Above the (44/2 M.) Klaus-Brucke (4310') the Rienz (see below) issues from its subterranean channel.

At the head of the valley of the Schwarze Rienz , which opens here to the left, rise the Drei Zinnen (p. 496). Farther on, at the N.W. base of the Mte. Pian, is the light-green Durrensee (4625'). In the background rise the huge *Monte Cristallo (10,495'; p. 499), with its glacier, and its neighbours, the PizPopena (10,310') and the Cristallino (9140'), presenting a most striking picture.

The first ascent on the W. side, from Caprile, was made in 1895 by Messrs. Ravnor and Phillimore. The ascent is now easier from the Rifugio Coldai (p. 515). The Cadore Alps between Tagliamento and Piave are most conveniently visited from Longarone (0 hrs. from Claut). A stony bridle-track ascends steeply on the N. side of the deep Vajont Ravine , along the slope of Monte Pul (4055') to (2 hrs.) Časno (3190') and (1 hr.) Erto (2380').

Valle Fiorentina , good), Costa , Santa Fosca , and Pescul (4640'), and over the Forcella Forada (6480'), on the N. side of the Pelmo, or over the Forcella della Poina (6650'), a little to the N. The Pelmo (10,395') may be ascended from Selva (guide, Pio Cazzetta) in 8-9 hrs. (difficult, comp. pp. 505, 509). The night is spent at the Malga Fiorentina (5345'). — Over the Forcella Slaulanza to Zoldo. see p. 509. From Caprile over the Fedaja Pass to (7 hrs.) Campitello , see p. 454$ guide, 10 fr., not indispensable. The Road from Caprile to Agordo (16 M.) follows the left bank of the rapid Cordevole, passing tlie Alb. at Capitello (plain but good) and Le Orazie opposite on the right bank, to the beautiful :i: Lago d^lleghe (3170'),* 1 74 M- long, the E. bank of which it skirts (ferry across the lake preferable y to the S. bank 1 fr.). The lake o\ves its origin to a landslip from the Mte. Forca (6500'), ■vvhich in 1772 buried three villages, but is gradually being fllled up by to Belluno. CENCENIGHE. Map,p. 448.-IV. R. 85. 515 accumulations of debris. The surface of the green water reflects the towering locks of Mte. Civetta (see below). On the E. bank lies (3 M.) the hamlet of Alieghe (3215'; Alb. alPolo Nord , 30 beds from i fr., Alb. Rist alle Alpi , both well spoken of; Giov. Rivas Cafe; Cafe Fdeliveiss ), charmingly situated at the mouth of the Val Lander. Exoursions (guide, Santo de Toni). Over tlie Forcella d'Alieghe to tlie Val di Zoldo see p. 509. — A more interesting, t.hough somewhat more toilsome route crosses tlie Passo di Coldai (7040'), 3V2 hrs. from Allcgke, with the Rifugio Coldai of the Ital. Alpine Club (Inn, 16 beds) below the sombre Lago di Coldai , in a grand situation bctvveen the Monte Coldai (7865'), to the left (ascent in 1 hr. witb guide; beautiful view), and the liuge rocky walls of the Mte. Civetta (10,565'), on the right (ascent in 4 hrs., for lirst-rate climbers only; see p. 509). A path leads round the E. side of Mte. Coldai to the Forcella d" Alieghe (p. 509; to Mareson l 1 /* hr.). At tlie S. end of the lake, near Masare (Hot.-Pens. Reghia d’Italia, 50 beds from 1.50, penš. 6-8 fr.), the road crosses the Corde- vole (beyond the bridge is the Albergo Monte Civetta, 30 beds from 1.25, pens. 4.50-5 fr. 50 c.) and traverses the scene of the above- mentioned landslip. It then leads through a picturesque and -\vell- wooded valley, in view of the Cima di Pape and Pale di San Lucano in front, and the Mte. Alto di Pelsa on the left, to (8 l /2 M.) Cence- nighe (2540'; Alb. al Viandantc , 15 beds at 1.25-1 fr. 50 c., Stella , both very fair), at the confluence of the Biois with the Cordevole. In the Val Biois (Val Canale) a road leads to (3 M.) Forno di Canale (3210'; Gallo; Corona; guide, Giov. de Dorigo), picturesquely situated at the mouth of the Val di Garbs (see bclow), whence it ascends the left bank of the Biois to the (3 M.) Albergo Focobon (20 beds at 1 fr. 50 c., good) at Piedefalcade (3765') and to ( 3 /4 M.) Falcade (4260'), at the mouth of the Val Focobon. Thence over the ValUs .Pass (6665') to (5 hrs.) Paneveggio (fatiguing and uninteresting), see p. 456. A preferable route leads over the (4 hrs.) Passo del Mulaz (8400'; with the Rifugio del Mula/, of the Trent Alpine Club) to tbe (P /2 lir.) Ilolle Pass (see p. 456). Over the San Pelle- grino Pass to (5 hrs.) MoSna. see p. 419. — About R /2 hr. to the S. of Forno di Canale lies GarH (4530'; rfmts. and hay-beds at the lowest chalet), in a magnilicent situation. Thence ove‘r the Forcella Cesurette (5928') and the Fradusta Pass (8365 1 ) to the Pravitale-HUtte (p. 459), 5-6 hrs., with guide; through the wild Val delle Comelle and over the Rosetta Pass to San Mar¬ tino di Castrozza , 8 hrs., with guide (see p. 458). The Cima di Pape (8215'), a very fine point of view, is ascendcd from Cencenighe via Chioit without serious difficulty (5 hrs.; guide, Cesare Laz- zarini). — Another attractive but toilsome ascent is that of the Monte Alto di Pelsa (7930'; 5 l /ahrs., with guide), accomplislied from Listolade via the V alle di Corpassa and the Manzoni Alp (6000'). The road (diligence via Agordo to Belluno or Sedico -Bribano daily at 11.30 in 6 3 /4 hrs.) crosses the Biois, and at ('{)i / 4 M.) Fat the Cordevole, and enters an imposing, rock-strewn gorge, at the end of which lies the ( 12 Y 2 M.) hamlet of Listolade (2235'), at the mouth of the wild Val di Corpassa. To the left rises the Framont (7525'). To the right, at (I 31/2 M.) Taibon , opens the Val di San Lucano (p. 459), with the precipitous Pale di San Lucano (7905') on its N. side. We then reach the fertile valley of — 16 M. Agordo. — Hotels. ‘Hotel Bellevuk, 60 beds from 3, B. 1.50, dej. 3, D. 4, pens. 8-12 fr.; ‘Moderne Hotel, 50 beds at 1.50-3, B. 1, pens. 8-10 fr.; Albergo alle Miniere, in the Piazza, 24 beds from 1 fr. 50 c.; Alb. Roma, bed 2-3 fr. — Cafe al Telegrafo. 516 IV. R. 85. - Map, p. 418. AGORDO. Agordo (2060'), the Capital of the valley(3200inhab.), is beauti- ftilly situated amid imposing mountains. In the spacious Piazza stands a palače of the Manzoni family. The church of Rivamonte (3195'), 3 3 /4 M. to the S., commands a splendid vietv. From Agordo to Primiero over the Cereda Pass, 7V2-8 hrs., new road. At (10 min.) Brugnac we cross the Cordevole and ascend to the left, with fine retrospects of the Val Agordo, via Voltago (2820 f ) and Miana to (2 hrs.) the picturesquely situated village of Frassenč (8550 '5 Alb. Ve- nezia, 40 beds at 2-4 fr., good; guide, Serafino Parissenti), whence the Mte. Agner (9430') and the Croda Grande (9315'; both difficult) may be ascended. About 3 /4 hr. farther on (short-cut to the right, by the last house), beyond a beautiful forest of chestnuts and oaks, we cross the Forcella Aorine (4260', inn), between Mie. Luna (5735') and Mte. Gardellon (4745'), and de- scend again via Vitla to (">/4 hr.) Gosaldo (3610'} Restaurant alla Posta, plain), in the Val dei Molini , at the foot of loftv limestone peaks. Over the For¬ cella d'Oltro to the Canali Hut , see p. 459. We now proceed liigh above the Miss valley (opposite is Sagron , above which rises a long rocky ridge with the Piz di Sagron , see below), thcn descend rather steeply to (14/2 hr.) Miss (3740’), cross the stream (Austrian frontier), and ascend to the (50 min.) grassy depression of the Cereda Pass (4520' ; new hotel). We descend by the new road through meadows and woods to the (1 hr.) Caslel La Pietra (3410’) and to (»/ 4 hr.) Primiero (see p. 458; from the Castel La Pietra in the Val di Canali to the Canali and Pravitale Huts , see p. 459). — Another route from Agordo to the Cereda Pass leads via Villagrande , Tiser , Ren, Vallalta , and Sagron (3505'), but is longer and less attractive tkan the road via Gosaldo. — The Piz di Sagron or Piz di Cimonega^ (8155') and the Cimon del Piz (7640') may bc ascended from Sagron vili the Pasno Palughet and the Forcella di Comedon (6835') respectively (both difficult; see p. 459). Guides, Gim. Preloran, Eugenio and Pietro Condera of Agordo. From Agordo to Forno di Zoldo over the Puran Pass (5265’; 5*/2 hrs.; horsc 20 fr.), a somewhat fatiguing route. The path (rough at places) ascends via Rif and Piasent to the pass, between Mte. Mojazza (8670') and the Cime di San Sebasliano (8170'), \vith excellent view of Monte Pelmo, Monte Antelao, etc. Descent by San Tiziano di Goima (4175') to Doni and Forno (p. 509). — The route via La Valle , over the Forcella Moschesin (6430') and through the Val Pramper , to (6 hrs.) Forno (bridle-path as far as the pass; guide not indispensable) is longer but more attractive. Frosi Agordo to Primiero over the Canali Pass, 12-13 hrs., witli guide, a fine but fatiguing route. Road via Taibon through the Val di San Lucano to (l 3 /4 hr.) fm, which vvas buried beneath a landslip from the Pale di San Lucano in Nov. 1908. From Pont. 20 min. farther on, a marked path leads to the left over the Forcella di Miel (8325') and the Forcella dei Canali (8180') to the (8 hrs.) Canali Hut (p. 459) and (2 hrs.) Primiero (p. 458). — From Agordo to the Pravitale Hut, see p. 459; to San Martino di Caslrozza , sec p. 458. Below Agoido the valley contracts. The road(drmng preferable) is flanked with huge masses of rock. It leads over the Ponte Alto, and farther on crosses the Cordevole three times more in this magni- tlcent deflle (*Canal d’Agordo), the narrovvest part of vvhieh is guarded by a tort. 24 M. Alb. alla Stanga (1440'). The valley expands at (28 M.) Peron (1310'), and beyond (29 M.) Mas (inn) the road forks, the left branch traversing a hilly district to (341/ 2 M.) Belluno (p. 511), the right follovving the vvide hottom of the lower Cordevole valley to (34 M.) Sedico- Bribano (Excelsior Villa Patt. Hotel), on the railway from Belluno to Feltre (p. 511). V.

On a height to the left stands the chateau of Leopoldstein; bcyond it (not visible from the line) lies the beautiful, dark-blue Lake of leopoldstein (2030'; restaurant), over which tower the bold precipices of the Seemauer (3760'). Hence to Eisenerz via the Prossen (2625'J, inarked path in hr.; to Wildalpen via the Eisenerzer HShe, sce p. 550. 9'/2 M. Eisenerz (2270'; Rail. Restaurant; ■ Konig von Sachsen; Posl; Zum IJeiligen Geist; Rudolfbahn, near the station), witli 2600 inhab., an old mining-town, as its name (‘iron-ore’) imparts, is commanded on the E. by the abrupt Pfaffenstein (6140') and on the W. by the Kaiserschild (6830'). The Churcli of St. Ostoald , a Gothie structure founded in 1279 and rebuilt in 1471-1517, is a good exaraple of a mediaival fortified church. By the approach to the church is an interesting Jlislorical Museum (adm. 20, catalogue 30 h.). The terracc in front of the Schicht-Turm commands a line view (mountain-indicator). To the S. tlie red Erzberg (5040') closes the valley. This ‘ore-moun- tain 1 is so productivc that the ore is quarried in summer vzitliout the aid of mining operations. In winter, liowever, the subteriTinean mode of excavation is more convenient. The greater part of tlie mountain belongs to the Alpine Montan-Gesellschaft. The mineš, some of which have been 554 V. Ti. 03. - Map, p.5d8. VOKRERNBERf!. Prom, Amolclten in operation for 1000 years, employ 4500 liands in summer and 2800 in vvinter and yield over 1,000,(XX) tons of iron annually. Visitors are admitted without a guide to the portion of the mountain between Eisenerz and the Barbara-Kapelle and Barbara-Haus; thence to the Bergliaus, guide 1 /f., to the station of Erzberg on the Prebichl railway over the workings, 1 K. The best plan is to proceed by the Erzberg railvvay to the station of Pre¬ bichl (see belovv), thence take the mine-railway (not running on Sun.) to the (1/4 hr.) Wiesmat-Haus (5625'), proceed to the Vordernberger Berghaus (restaur- ant), and descend over the terraces of the mine to the (8/4 hr. ; guide 1 K.) Barbara-Kapelle (*Restaurant Barbara-Haus) and (2/4 hr.) Eisenerz. The ''■Erzberg Raiiavav, interesting both from its bold engineering and from the beautiful views it commands (best to the left), was constructed mainly for the mineral trafflc, on Abt’s cogged-wheel system. With an average gradient of 68:1000 it ascends to the S., through the Schicht-Turm Tunnel , to (10 M.) Krumpental (2365’), where the toothed-rails begin and the gradient becomes steeper. The train threads two tunnels, traverses loftv viaducts and wide curves, and stops at (1372 M.) Erzberg (3510'; restaurant), above the mining terraces (see above). Jteyond the Platten Tunnel (1520 yds.) and the Prebichl Tunnel (645 yds.) is the station of (IGV2 M.) Prebichl (3950'; Reichenstein Inn , 60 beda from 2 K. 40 h., well spoken of). Sevcral interesting ascents may be made hence (guides, Joh. and Silv. IVIitter, and Jos. Rappl at Eisenerz, Em. Schweiger, and Mick. and Flor. Zechner at Prebichl). The ascent of the Polster (6270') from Pre¬ bichl (17ž-2 hrs.; guide 3 2T.) is easy. The 15 Vordernberger Reichenstein (7435'; 27z-3 hrs.; guide 6 A.), fatiguing but attractive, is ascended from Prebichl via the Oriibl (5380') and the Rossel (6190'), or (preferable) from Wiesmat via the Plattenkreuz (4440'), the Plattalm (4590'), and the Rossel. Near the top is the Reichenstein-Hiitle (6980'; Inn, 10 beds and 20 mattresses). An interesting liigh-level route leads hence to the W. across the Niederttfrl (5415 1 ) to the (47-2 hrs.) Wildfeld (6710'), whence we may descend to the S.W. to (272 hrs.) Kallioang (p. 558), to the S.E. to (3 hrs.) Trofaiach (see below), or to Ihe N. to (272 hrs.) Eisenerz. — Two other ascents from Prebichl are the Trencht- ling ( Hochtunn , 6830'; 372-4 hrs.; interesting), and the Griesmauer (6610'; 3 l /2-4 hrs.; difiicult). — The line now descends to (18 M.) Glaslbremse (3420') and (2072M.) Vordernberg-Markt (2770'; Krone or Post; Adler , R. 1.50-2.25 K.; Gruber; Sonne; Zelinka), a prosperous plače with a brisk trade in iron. The toothed-rails end herc. The Trenchtling (see above; 472-5 hrs. witli guide) and the Reichenstein (572 hrs.; better from Prebichl) may be ascended hence. Over the Ilieselegg (3825') to (472 hrs.) Oberort in the Tragdss - Tal , see p. 527. — 2172M- Vordernberg-Siidbahnhof (2520'; railway restaurant). The train now runs via Friedamoerk and Jlafning to (2772 M.) Trofaiach (2160'; *H6t. Fuchs, R.2-3 K.; Post; Brduhaus; Goldner Ochse ), a frequented summer- resort in a line situation. Good view from the (1 hr.) Rudolfsioarte (2920') and from the Friesingwand (3475'; 172-2 hrs.). The Talerkogel (5430 1 ; 2 1 /i- 3 hrs.), the Reiting or Gtisseck (7265'; b l /z lirs.; comp. p. ,558), and the Wildfeld (671(/; 6 hrs.; see above) may be ascended from Trofaiach. — Thence the line proceed3 via Gmeingrub. St. Peter-Freyenstein , and Donmoitz to (34 M.) Leoben (p. 614). For Pedestrians the route from Eisenerz through the Frauenmauer Ca- vern and the Tragoss-Tal to Oberort (Bruck) is much more attractive (672 hrs.; from Eisenerz to the cavern and back 6-672 hrs.; torches and guide, 7 /C, necessarv for the cavern; magnesium-wire useful). We diverge to the left from tlie Prebichl road at (72 hr.) Trofeng (2555'; Zur Frauenmauer) and ascend the wooded Gsollgraben to the (H/2 hr.) Gsoll Alp (3695'; inn), at the foot of the Frauenmauer (6000'), a rocky ridge stretching from the Schvvaben chain to the Griesmauer. Another half-houFs ascent in zigzags through wood and then a level path bring us to the (1/4 hr.) W. entrance (4705') of the *Frauenmauer-Hohle, an imposing cavern perforating the whole mountain, 900 yds. in length, without including the numerous side- galleries. Soon after entering the cave (wraps advisable) we descend to the Eiskammer , which contains columns of ice. We then traverse a series of large halls, floored with limestone d^bris, to the (*/■» br.)

Filzmoos (p. 570), or by a red-marked path to the (2 1 /« hrs.) HofpUrgl-Hutte (p. 571). The direct route from Ramsau to Filzmoos , via Hirseck (Auwirt) and Hachau , takes 3 J /2 hrs. The ‘‘‘Dachstein (9815') is ascended from the Austria-Hiitte iu 5-6 hrs. (comp. p. 150), but is flt for proficients only (guide from the Ramsau 18, from Schladming 20, with descent to Hallstatt or Gosau 26 or 28 A.). From the Austria-Hiitte we cross the lovver end of the Edelgries-Schlucht and the wooded slope of the Brandstell , then descend to the broad stretch of dčbris at the foot of the lower Schwadering cliffs, and cross it, ascend- ing to the right. At the upper end the path ascends abruptly, turns to tlie right over rocky slopes (stanchions and ropes), and enters the Schioade- ring , a large basin enclosed by lofty and perpendicular rocks, through which we ascend over ddbris and grassy slopes (keep to the riglit). From the head of this basin we have a very steep ascent by the ‘Ramsauer Weg’ (ropes and stanchions) to the (3 hrs.) Hunner-Scharte (8655'), between the Hunnerkogel and the Koppenkarsteiri, at the head of the Schladming Glacier.

From Oratz The railway traverses the Laibacher Moor (now drained.) by means of an embankment nearly l l / 2 M. long, and crosses the Lai- bach, which already becomes navigable here, though it issues from the mountains at Ober-Lciibach , only 3 M. higher up. This river is identical with the Poik, which rises near stat. St. Peter (p. 588), disappears in the cavern of Adelsberg (p. 587), re-appears as the Unz at Planina (see below), and after a brief career is again lost to view to the S. of Loitscli. — Before reaching (151 M.) Franz - dorf the train crosses a viaduct borne by a double series of arches, 625 yds. in length and 125' high in the centre. It then passes Ober- Laibach and enters the Karst (Ital. Carso , Slav. Kras ), an inhospi- table limestone plateau, extencling S. towards thelstrian coast, with long hill-ridges and numerous gorges and funnel-shaped swallow- holes (dolinas), in which the local streams disappear for considerable portions of their courses. In the N. parts of the Karst there are stili fine woods. — 161 M. Loitscli (1575'; Kramar , plain but good; Virant , at the station, well spoken of). Excursions. The ascent of the Javornik (Spile; 4075') is interesting (5 hrs.). We proceed to the S.W. by the road througk the Birnbaumer Wald until we reach its highest point (2895'), 1 M. beyond the (2 l fc hrs.) St. Oertrud Inn (2845'). Thenee we ascend to the right to (U /4 lir.) Pri Skvarze , the last farm-house (where the night may be spent), and to the O /2 hr.) summit, which commands a magnificent view. Quicksii.vkr Mineš op Idria, 21 M. to the N. W. of Loitscli. Diligence twice daily in 474 hrs., 2 K.; carriage there and back in 6-% hrs., 12-15 K.; inspection of the mineš and mining appliances, 3 hrs. The road leads via Hodeterschitz and Qodowitz and tlirough the picturesque gorge of the Sala to Idria (1085'; i, Schwarzer Adler), on the Idriza , the largest town (OuOOinhah.) in Carniola but one. The mineš, discovered in 1497, have been worked by the state since 1580 (ticket of admission 2 K.). The ore, containirig on an average 20 per cent of quicksilver, occurs chiefly in the form of cinnabar. Pure quicksilver occurs very rarely here. The foundries at which the ore is treated lie on the right bank of the Idriza, 72 M. to the N.E. of Idria. The ore is heated in furnaces and the quicksilver vapour thus generafed is condensed in a cooling apparatus. The fluid metal is preserved in iron fl as k s or slieepskin bags. The annual yield is 6-700 tons of quicksilver, of whieh about 40 tons pass into Commerce as cinnabar. The miners, over 1200 in number, form a kind of regulated colony; the women employ themselves in lace-making. The chateau of Geioerkenegg , built in 1527 and now the mine-office, the theatre built under Maria Theresa, and the school should be noticed. — Pleasant walk from Idria to the (72 M.) Zemlja Park and the (P /2 M.) Wildensee. The train foIlows the valley of the Unz to (166 M.) Planina and (1697-2M.) Rakek (1820'; Post). Of the numerous caverns in the vicinity the most interesting is the im- posing Planina or Kleinhausl Grotfco (1475'). through which the Unz flows, near Ober-Planina , 5 M. to the W. (only partly explored). — About 4 M. to the S.E. of Rakek, to the S. of the little town of Zirknitz (1880'; Post), is the Zirknitzer See (1805'), the Lacus Lugens of Strabo, 6 BI. in length and 172-272 M. in breadth, abounding in lish. The lake is drained by means of funnel-shaped apertures and fissures in the rocks. It dries up almost annually; and at other times, after protraeted rain, it causes inundations. Innumerable waterfowl here afford excellent šport. Ascent of the Krainer Schneeberg, very interesting. A drive of 3 hrs. via Zirknitz and Laas (inn) brings us to the cross-roads near Iggen- dorf pAllaker); we then follow the road to the right, passing (20 min.)
