A little report of the naked hike in 2012

We left the 30th to Austria. It was very hot during the ride in Germany, up to 35 degrees. In Germany we decided to dress off and drive further to Austria naked. Only for the coffee we had to dress. So we arrived naked in the hut, where 5 others already arrived. It was very a nice and comfortable hut on 1700 meter altitude. The rooms were nice with double bunk beds, so a double downstairs and a double upstairs. Together with Wilfried and Joop we decided to create a Dutch speaking room. There was an other Dutch guy expected, who came a couple of days later.
The Sunday we made a little walk in the surroundings of the hut. Very beautiful and a nice warming up. In the afternoon most of the others arrived, 16 in total, 2 Dutch (the 3rd came later) , 1 Belgian, 4 Italian, 6 Brits, 2 German and 1 French. That night O cooked some food with the few things we had, since the shops were closed on Sunday (catholic Austria!).
The Monday we made a tour near Mandling, so we drove naked there and made a tour starting on 850 meter up to 1900 meter. A nice walk up, but just after we left the restaurant a thunderstorm and rainstorm started. It was very terrifying, all these thunders and lightnings. It also started raining cats and dogs, so we had to hide. Once we were hiding (laying under a hay car), there was a flash impact very very close to us..... I was not so happy. But we managed to continue and reach the cars. That night I cooked some pasta.
On Tuesday we went t one of the trails I did 2 years ago. This is a very nice trail high in the mountains. The day started rainy. We had to climb around 650 meter to the first hut, in the fog, but little more up, there was sun! We were allowed to be naked on the terrace of the hut to have a drink and a soup. We continued more to some higher parts, up to 2100 meter (so 850 meter elevation). On this high path we had fantastic views and stunning panorama's. There was even snow, where we could play in. Surrounded by flowers it was just enjoying. Later on we passed a little lake, where we went for a swim. But is was very very cold!!!!!!! So I only managed to walk in and to run out again :-). Continuing we passed a huge water fall, very impressive! Finally we went to the car and back to the hut after a 20 km hike. One of the Brits cooked a Sri Lanka curry.
Wednesday we went to Radstadt, where we klimbed the Rossbrand and had a nice walk over a trail on the ridge. It was a nice route with swamps and through the forests. Totally different from the day before, but with stunning views. After the nice naked hike we made a little visit to Radstadt and had a nice ice cream on a terrace :-))))). That night I cooked a nice Indonesian dish.
Thursday we went to one of the mountains next to the hut. So we could start naked immediately. This was also a nice trail to one of the summits. Also her the views were stunning! Because the tour was close, we were a little earlier at home. In the afternoon we had a nice naked gathering on the terrace, with some wine and beer. I arranged some goulash for the night.
The last day Friday, we went to some lower parts, mainly in the woods, but also interesting. Unfortunately, a new thunderstorm came, so we had to hide a little bit. In the afternoon is went better, so we had a nice long naked gathering on our terrace. At night we cooked pan cakes.
So the week became to an end on Saturday. After cleaning the house, we said good bye to everybody and we jumped naked in the car and drove naked to Cologne. Just at the stops something to wear.
