Mühlenweg Hike

Spring has firmly arrived and it's actually my favourite time of year to be active outdoors. Okay, who are we kidding, I want to be outdoors all year long, but I think spring has that perfect combination of cool forest air, snow still lingering on the mountains, but bright and warm sunny skies.

One of my best friends in Salzburg, Mélisa, who owns Nacho, spontaneously texted me last night that Nacho's dog trainer had planned a group dog hike for the next morning. It was primarily a training session for the dogs, geared at how to take dogs on a hike and also giving the doggos a chance to interact in a group setting outdoors.

Of course, I immediately signed up, not for the training aspect but because hiking AND six dogs? My dream day out, basically.

All in all, it was a wonderful hike. We didn't do the full trek as we had the dogs, but we did do a beautiful loop and stopped at the little waterfall just near the start of the trail both at the beginning and the end for the doggos to have something to drink and cool down in. But, even if you don't have a dog (or six) this is a great intermediate trail just east of Salzburg.
