DAY 21 — Wednesday, May 15, 2024
Today’s 12.4 mi (19.8 km) to Bad Reichenhall are part of my plan to return to Salzburg. These miles were psychologically better than originally walking upstream, because going downstream gives you the feeling you’re really going with the flow.
Each day, I‘ve gotten into the habit of making a sandwich to eat towards lunch. My favorite lunch spots have been by the rivers—today the Saalach entertained me going downstream. Still seeing a good number of cyclists and local walkers, even a group of about 20 very much in formation, two abreast, ten deep (not my preferred way to enjoy such beautiful scenery, but maybe the only way to control a tour group).
Only one more walking day left.
