Theth

After a 7km warmup I climbed SH22, a twisty road that is favored by many motorcycles and I was greeted by a great little cafe at the top.

After descending into the valley and at the lowest elevation for the day I could feel the heat that is covering all of Europe at the moment. I stopped at a cafe which served an excellent salad yogurt and tzatziki for an extended rest stop.

A ways into the second climb I ran into Alex from Germany who had already heard about me as he had camped with Lorenz last night. He was also headed to Theth and the 1500 m climb was going to be a challenge. I felt the same way so we joined up and got to talk the whole way up.
In total today I climbed 2,247 m (7415ft) over 87km. Awesome day. I feel lucky and grateful that I can do this.

Everyday so far this trip I think I have seen the most incredible scenery and yet another day exceeds the previous day. Entering the valley of Theth is an experience I won't soon forget.Leggi altro
