Then continue as for the route from <b>Oostende</b> (Ostend).</p> - - <h4>From Oostende (Ostend)</h4> - <p>Drive to <b>Brussel/Bruxelles</b> (Brussels) along the <b>E40</b>. The motorway skirts round the north side of the city. To use the <b>Southern Route</b>, take the <b>E411</b> towards <b>Namur</b>. To use the <b>Northern Route</b>, continue along the <b>E40</b> to <b>Liege</b>, <b>Aachen</b> and <b>Köln</b>.</p> - - <h4>From Hoek van Holland (Hook of Holland)</h4> - <p>Get onto the <b>E25</b>, and head for <b>Rotterdam</b>. Then continue as for the route from <b>Rotterdam</b>.</p> - - <h4>From Rotterdam</h4> - <p><i>Either</i> Head towards <b>Dordercht</b> and get on the <b>E31</b>. Head towards <b>Gorinchen</b>, <b>Tiel</b>, and then <b>Arnhem</b>.</p> - <p><i>Or</i> Follow the <b>E25</b> towards <b>Gouda</b>, and then the <b>E25/E30</b> Past <b>Utrecht</b> and on to <b>Arnhem</b>.</p> - <p><i>Then</i> Follow the <b>E35</b> from <b>Arnhem</b> via <b>Gelsenkchn</b>, <b>Duisberg</b> and <b>Düsseldorf</b> to <b>Köln</b>.</p> - - <h4>The Southern Route (From Namur)</h4> - <p>Head south on the <b>E41</b> towards <b>Neufchateu</b>, <b>Arlon</b> and - <b>Luxembourg</b> (Luxemburg). Then there is a selection of possible routes - past <b>Saarbrucken</b>, then <b>Pirmasens</b> and off the motorway to - <b>Landau</b> and on to <b>Karlsruhe</b>. After that follow the A8 all the - way across Germany - <b>Stuttgart</b> (stop off to see ARGE members here if you like), - <b>Ulm</b>, <b>Augsberg</b><b>München</b>, <b>Salzburg</b>. If you want to stick - with the motor rules then get off just before the border and drive through Salzburg - - this is actually quite easy and not usually too busy outside the rush hour. Otherwise - follow the A1 to <b>Mondsee</b>, the 154 to <b>St. Gilgen</b>, the 158 to - <b>Bad Ischl</b>, the 145 to <b>Bad Ausee</b> over the Pötschen Paß.</p> - - <h4>The Northern Route (From Köln)</h4> - <p>The <b>A3</b> autobahn runs from <b>Köln</b> all the way to the border with Austria, passing <b>Siegburg</b>, <b>Limburg</b>, <b>Frankfurt</b>, <b>Aschaffenburg</b>, <b>Würzburg</b>, <b>Nürnberg</b>, <b>Regensburg</b>, <b>Deggendorf</b> and <b>Passau</b>. In Austria, the autobahn continues as the Austrian <b>A8</b>. About 20 miles into Austria, turn off to <b>Ried</b>. From this point, the rest of the route is on much smaller roads, a welcome relief after endless motorways, and the scenery starts to become distinctly alpine. Follow the <b>143</b> via <b>Eberschwang</b>, <b>Ampfelwang</b>, <b>Vöcklabruck</b> and <b>Gmunden</b>, where the <b>145</b> is picked up. Follow the <b>145</b> via <b>Altmunster</b>, <b>Traunkirchen</b>, <b>Ebensee</b> and <b>Weissenbach</b> to <b>Bad Ischl</b>. You're nearly there now - only <b>The Last Bit</b> left to go.</p> - - <h4>From Bad Ischl to Bad Aussee centre</h4> <p>Follow the <b>145</b> - via <b>Bad Goisern</b> and over the <b>Pötschen Pass</b>. On - descending from the pass, there are two turnings for <b>Bad Aussee</b>. - The first turning, on the left, descends a very steep hill, and then - crosses a bridge over a river. Carry on straight ahead after the - bridge to reach the town centre. The second turning for <b>Bad - Aussee</b> is to the right. At the bottom of the sliproad, turn right - again to pass back under the <b>145</b> and follow the road into the - town centre. Both routes meet up in the town centre at a peculiar three-way junction. There seem to be no obvious - rules here, except not to bump into anything. - -<h4 id="roadbit">Bad Aussee centre to Base Camp</h4> -From the three-way junction, which is just by the Post Office ("Postampt"), follow the sign to - <b>Gössl</b>, passing immediately through a very narrow section of road - with traffic lights to control the flow of traffic. The road crosses a - river, and shortly after swings left and then right, around a blind - corner, before leaving the town. After about 2 miles of pleasant - meandering through woods and meadows, look out for <b>Gasthof - Staudnwirt</b> on the left. <b>Base Camp</b> is -<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=47.61616&mlon=13.81218#map=19/47.61616/13.81218">just behind the car-park on the - right</a>, opposite the Gasthof.</p> - - <h2>By Air</h2> - - <p>This is getting to be a reasonably priced option, but gear still - needs to find its way to Austria, and we need enough cars out there to - ensure a free flow of cavers up and down the toll road.</p> - - <p>Cheap flights are available to Munich and Salzburg. Salzburg is - closer, but has fewer flights and may even be more expensive. The - extra cost difference to Munich on the railways seems to be very - little. In 2000, a return from Munich to Bad Aussee on the train - was about 23ukp.</p> - - <p>The <a href="http://www.bahn.de/">German railway website</a> is - excellent for planning journeys in both Germany and Austria. - Remember to buy a ticket before getting on the train.</p> - - <h3>Munich Airport to Bad Aussee</h3> - - <p>From Munich airport, there's a shuttle bus to the main railway station - (München Hbf) from where you can take a train which stops at - Attnang-Puchheim. Now follow the description below from this point.</p> - - <h3 id="salz">Salzburg Airport to Bad Aussee - train</h3> - - <p>Take a bus to the main railway station (Salzburg Hbf)for €2.70 (2018) and a train to - <b>Attnang-Puchheim</b>. The train will probably be bound for - Wein (Vienna). Change at Attnang-Puchheim and get on a local - train to <b>Bad Aussee</b>. This train will probably be bound - for Stainach-Irdning. A Salzburg->Bad Aussee ticket should be about €20/£14.</p> - - <p>Train changes can be tight (only a couple of minutes); the platform numbers - are given on the timetables on the station platforms.</p> - - <p>Once on the train for Bad Aussee, you've got a couple of hours until - you arrive. The journey is very pleasant, and the scenery improves as - the journey goes on. Half an hour before Bad Aussee, the train skirts - the edge of the large lake adjacent to the village of <b>Hallstatt</b>, - visible across the water. The flanks of the Dachstein range can be - seen from here. A short while later, whilst passing through a wooded - valley after <b>Obertraun</b> station, you can catch a glimpse of the huge - amount of water which pours from <b>Koppenbrühlehöhle</b> on the - right-hand side. The train continues for a few minutes to arrive at Bad - Aussee.</p> - - <p>If part of the train journey has a bus replacement service (as in 2018), it can be easier to simply - get the bus all the way from Salzburg (bus station is at the train station) to Bad Aussee, with a change at Bad Ischl. -If done as two tickets this is €10:80 to Bad Ischl and then - €6.40 from Bad Ischl to Bad Aussee (in 2018). There is often a long wait at Bad Ischl. - <h3>The Last Bit</h3> - - <p>See 'Bad Aussee Railway <a href="#lastbit">station to expo campsite</a>' in Train section above</p> - - <h2>By Bus</h2> - - <p>Bus can be the cheapest way to get to expo (and possibly the - lowest-carbon). Not as nice as the train, but - practical. It takes about 30 hours. International buses to - Linz (on the route to 'Vienna'/'Wien') exist, otherwise Munich (£50) - or Zurich (£75). Then get either train or National bus onwards. Bus - London - Zurich, then night train to Steinach-Irdning - (£40) is a reasonable option. Not all of these buses go every - day. If booking at short notice bus can be excellent value.</p> - - http://www.europebus.co.uk/austria/ (To Linz) - https://www.flixbus.com/ (To Munich and Zurich) - http://www.checkmybus.co.uk - - <h2>By Bicycle</h2> - <p>This has been done twice, first by Dave Fearon in 1992, who took 9 - days (return to UK only), and more recently by Brian Outram in a more - leisurely 16 days (I think).</p> -<hr /> -<ul id="links"> -<li><a href="index.htm">Expedition Handbook</a> - -<li><a href="../infodx.htm">Index to info/topics pages</a></li> - -<li><a href="../index.htm">Back to Expedition Intro page</a></li> -<li><a href="../../index.htm">Back to CUCC Home page</a></li> -</ul> -</body> -</html> - diff --git a/update.htm b/update.htm index 4cb9627b6..290c1583f 100644 --- a/update.htm +++ b/update.htm @@ -1,6 +1,8 @@ - +<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> +<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/main2.css" /> <title>CUCC's Austria expeditions: Recent changes</title> </head> <body> @@ -8,7 +10,88 @@ <p>This archive is constantly being updated as the current year's work is integrated into the whole, and as "catching up" on old documentation proceeds.
