Griaß eich... by the way in Austria when you above 1000m you are "per Du" to everybody and you greet everybody you encounter = it is old traditional Alpine etiquette. Even back in the Imperial times when the Emperor was hunting in the mountains his hunting entourage was "per Du" with him as long as they were high up instead of adressing him befitting his rank with "your highness" or "your majesty".

[@lowenmaulchen3033]

I‘ve heard that, but 1000m altitude is not that high. Many villages and even cities are above that - so do you say du to everyone there? Or let’s say 2000 m altitude?

@@lowenmaulchen3033 You don´t have to understand it. Es zählt der zu überwindendte Höhenanstieg vom Fuß des Berges bzw des Tales gerechnet. zB das Inntal mit Innsbruck liegt auf 574 meter..du mußt von dort dennoch 1000 Höhenmeter überwinden um in die "Du-Zone" zu kommen und nicht bloß 426 meter.. Oder anders gesprochen wer 1000 Höhenmeter am Berg überwindet wird zum "Bergkamerad" und wird somit mit "Du" angesprochen, das war der eigentliche Ursprung des Ganzen/dieser Tradition..und stammt aus der "Pre-Bergbahn/Seilbahnzeit" wo man das alles noch zu Fuß gehen musste.

Listening to this on hiking vacation in Austria. When it comes to planning hikes: Use Rother or Kompass guides and use gps tracks You can never go wrong with that. You just have to keep in mind that the altitude distances have to be doubled, because they only account for going up and ignore that going down is also exhausting. The prices of the cable car rides always struck me as dispropoportionally high. I just can't imagine that maintenace and upkeep is so high that you have to ask every passenger at least 28€ for a roundtrip. Especially considering how many people take these.
