July 2015 Church of St. John the Baptist The Catholic church dedicated to St. John the Baptist in the village of Gramais built in 1824-33. Gramais is a tiny village with some 50 people just below the north side of Lechtal Alps in Tirol, Austria. It was founded in 14th century and its name origin is from latin Graminosa or Grumoso which means grass-rich. Gramais is located in altitude of 1.327 meters and is connected with the Lech river valley (alt. ca. 1.000 m) in north with a 8 km long mountain road. It is a great starting point for hiking or trekking in Lechtal Alps.
July 2015 Otterbach creek, Lechtal Alps Otterbach creek as seen at the beginning of the valley running to the village of Gramais in Lechtal Alps in Austria. It is almost the end of the round trek from Gramais over Memminger Huette and back. The descend from Memminger Huette takes some 3 to 4 hours and for us it was quite tough as we had to do it in the full mist and slight rain. However an experience does not have to be always pleasant as long as it is strong :)
