Game: Where-is-it? (international)

[J M]

Just about spot on eggs. I was off track and to be honest I can't remember exactly where this photo was, but if memory serves correctly it was about two thirds of the way to Mürren from Winteregg, down near a base jumping spot known as "high nose" (not that I'm a base jumper ). And yes, the wonderful Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau in the background.

Over to you!

[eggs]

We loved that area - but had only a short time.
We did get to walk along the paths and tunnels along the Trummelbach Falls which are in your picture.
I wondered why a track would terminate on the edge of the cliff face - but base jumping makes sense.??

We will stay in Europe

This is a very popular tourist peak in Switzerland

[eggs]

A wider view..

[J M]

Doesn't look like anyone is going for this so I'll have another guess. Mt. Pilatus overlooking Lucerne? I didn't get a chance to get up there but I would've loved to!

[eggs]

Yes. Pilatus is quite a rugged peak. But they built a hotel and restaurant up there!
We went up the "steepest" cog railway and came down on the cable car after exploring some of the short tracks and tunnels carved into the mountain. Highly recommended.

Thanks Eggs. Staying in Europe, where am I/what am I looking at? Sorry for the bad quality as well, it was taken on my phone

Somewhere in the Med?

[icefest]

Amalfi?

[J M]

On the right track but no, not the Amalfi Coast.

[cajun]

reminds me of the Cinque Terra coast

reminds me of the Cinque Terra coast

Yep, it is the Cinque Terre coast. Bonus points if you can name the town in the distance?

[cajun]

For the bonus point I will guess Manarola ...

It is a very pretty walk.

From Italy to Canada

[J M]

Unfortunately a large portion of the walk was closed when I was there so I couldn't do all of it. The town in the distance is Monterosso as well

[icefest]

athabasca glacier?

[cajun]

Sure is. The cold winds off the glacier were very lazy ....

[icefest]

Where in Europe is this beautiful coast?

[pazzar]

Is this in Malta?

[icefest]

No.
Also wrong body of water.

[icefest]

There's not that many other European bodies of water....

[photohiker]

Baltic Sea?

[icefest]

Bigger!

[photohiker]

Google thinks maybe Portugal coast.

[icefest]

Google thinks maybe Portugal coast.

That's actually amazing.

[photohiker]

So, near Cabo da Roca? the westernmost point of Portugal and continental Europe

[icefest]

It actually just 2km south of Lagos, but ill give it to you.

Anyone can go next, I'm a bit time poor at the moment. If no-one posts by Sunday, I'll be able to get at my photos by then.

[eggs]

Its September - so we might restart.
I always thought this thread would be mainly about NZ - so where was I here?

[Graham51]

I think this is Queenstown Airport. That would put you on the road that runs to the ski slopes south east of there. (Double Cone?)
