Our winners today 🍍

🥇 The Eagles' Nests - on the trail of polish medieval fortresses - Pieskowa Skała Castle by @astinmin

Pieskowa Skała Castle dominates the picturesque valley of the Prądnik River. Approaching it, we can first see one of the most recognizable rock formations in Poland called the Hercules Club. It stands on a ledge about 10 meters high; the rock itself is about 25 meters high.

🥈 Hiking Mount Schilthorn Switzerland: Rotstockhütte by @leaky20

The last day of our trip in Switzerland ended up being the highlight of our time spent in the country and possibly of our entire time within Europe. We hiked the Shilthorn, which is a mountain peak located in the Lauterbrunnen Valley that is famous for Piz Gloria, a restaurant, museum and panoramic lookout at the summit of the mountain. It was also the set for the 1969 film, James Bond, "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," but that's not what this post is really about. It's about our hike up the mountain to Rotstockhütte, the route we took with directions and the sites we saw along the way. I hope you enjoy.

🥉 Immerse with History at Tyrol Panorama Museum & Kaiserjagermuseum by @storiesoferne

I was obviously standing on historic ground. That piece of land was where a massive revolution took place, cementing Tyrol, a western state in the country of Austria, on the global map. And because this was such a tremendous turning point in their evolution as a nation, they built a dedicated museum to pay tribute to this historical event.
