Seven nights, GBP 2700
This summer Retreat is based at Oberer Gollmitzer, a lovely Austrian chalet sitting high above the village of Heiligenblut in the southern Alps. Charlotte and her team will look after you and provide you with lovely meals, as well as joining us in the field whenever possible. From here, we have easy access, via the Großglockner Hochalpenstraße, to one of the most spectacular mountain landscapes in Europe. There are plenty of interesting spots we know and places to pull in!
Co-leader, well-known German photographer, Willi Rolfes, is very familiar with this area and will help you get close to marmots, ibex and alpine chough We’ll also lead you to our favourite waterfalls and alpine meadows. The Alps is a rapidly changing environment but there is still an opportunity to enjoy the high alpine biome on this Retreat, while reflecting on its fragility.
