  • My Rössl AUTUMN/WINTER 2020-2021 AUTUMN/WINTER LEGENDARY
    english My Rössl AUTUMN/WINTER 2020-2021 LEGENDARY. Legendary: Peter Alexander as head waiter Leopold in the cult comedy ‘The White Horse Inn.’ Congenial: Waltraut Haas as resolute and smart Rössl hostess Josepha Vogelhuber. Overwhelmingly beautiful: Lake Wolfgangsee with all its possibilities for recreation, relaxation and exercise. Majestic: The mountains with unforgettable views down to the lakes. A gift from heaven: The fresh and heal- thy air – breathe deeply again and again. Typically Austrian: The warm hospitality, the culinary delights, the relaxed cosiness, the gentle Alpine pastures, the great hi- king and winter experiences. In a word: Legendary. Experience the good life at the Weisses Rössl at Lake Wolfgangsee. 1 FOR MY RÖSSL GUESTS Dearest Rössl guests, there was already so much that I had wanted to tell you when we started “My Rössl” one year ago. I have so much to share about festivals at the Rössl and the year of legends at the Lake Wolfgangsee. Then a little virus came along that changed the whole world. What you now hold in your hands is our lifeblood. After all, on some days all we have left is our belief that the legendary Weisses Rössl, which has existed for over 500 years, will continue to do so for a long time to come. Our confidence is thanks to you and all of our guests. I would be remiss in not expressing my gratitude at this stage for your loyalty. Thank you to all of you who have been with us at Lake Wolf- gangsee these past weeks and finally gave us the opportunity to bring joy to people.

From the beginning, the UYC Wg has been the home of very successful Austrian sailors, who achieved numerous international awards. Since 1960 sailors from the UYC Wg have regularly taken part in the Olympic Games. Hubert Raudaschl won two Olympic silver medals (Finn dinghy and Starboat) and in 2000 Christoph Sieber got the Olympic gold medal in the Mistral class.

Activity Level. Salzburg to Salzburg 3 Experience. Tour Code. Cycling Tours Europe #B1/2356 Austria's lakes tour with Charm 8-day Self-guided Cycling Tour Level 3 Tour Details and Description With charming accommodation! What is lovelier than being out and about, cycling along the banks of lakes and just letting your spirit soar in a marvelous natural landscape? The cycle tour through the Salzkammergut and the Trumer Seen lake area is wonderfully suited for this. Only a few kilometres beyond Salzburg, you will be greeted by the luxury of a unique natural panorama. The gentle, hilly landscape of Salzburg’s alpine foothills has a charm all of its own. You will cycle through meadows and moorlands to Oberndorf – the place associated with the Christmas carol "Silent Night" - and also to the old imperial town of Bad Ischl. In a way, you will be travelling through a whole world of clichés transformed into realities. The ten lakes round tour is active recreation, experiencing nature and enjoying many attractions, such as the Schafberg mountain and the Orth castle. Tour character: Level 3 Holiday Cyclist: The terrain along the banks of the lakes is completely flat. In between the lakes is mainly hilly. most of the tour is on cycle paths and on roads with little to no traffic from lake to lake. Only for a few short sections, cycling on busier roads is unfortunately unavoidable.

We are pleased that you have decided to study at Salzburg College, and we want to do whatever we can to help make this a truly extraordinary time of your life. Over the years, there has been an increased awareness of the need for international communication and understanding. Individual, personal experience in another culture is an important part of this. In deciding to step out of your "comfort zone" and by becoming a temporary citizen of another country, you are taking a step that is likely to have an impact on your entire life – and on people close to you. Many of our former students have stayed in touch and expressed time and again that they would not trade their European experience for anything. Although there is no way to prepare for all contingencies of studying abroad, there is a lot you can do to get ready and make the most of it. Preparation can take place at several different levels. First, there is the emotional aspect. It is important to let go of very specific expectations. Keep in mind the fact that things will be different and that your study abroad experience will be what YOU make of it. Then, there is the intellectual preparation. I would recommend that you read as much as you can about Austria; its history, culture, and society.
