in 15 b.c. the romans arrived at the river history informs us that they found a celtic settlement with the same name here this is why kempton claims to be germany's oldest city but there is no definitive evidence for that. centuries later during the reformation kempton was a divided city there was a catholic and a protestant part the church of st mung was once the protestant heart of kempton and it's the oldest place of worship in town. do you go to students deserve a says will focus in the middle of the church until around 10 years ago and it talks to small infant and the alternative were in the center of the church then it was all moved to the east side imagine having to turn your head like this from mufon out to hear the minister who was bearable. only in recent days. that's why these adjustable benches were built just slip the back rest and you have

a perfect view of the pulpit pretty practical and you think. we continued to the former catholic part of town with the basilica of st lawrence and the representative residence of the duke abbott's. and that's also where our tour of kempton and. canton is the perfect starting point for a tour through the i would call your region particularly famous for its beautiful nature and now during the cold months turned into a real winter wonderland. it's a magical place just waiting to be explored. the ice towboat gorge the town of disney. in

winter it's actually closed. but people can still enter the gorge at their own risk. the paths here aren't cleared of snow or ice for you to come up with overthe watch out it's really slippery for your vase and it's not. ready for. it's a fascinating world of rock water and ice from. the by tough calm also a gorge on the isle going reveals another side of its natural beauty at night during torchlight tours. that find its sensational 1st the rushing of the water below which you hear more than see. the ice of the icicles are incredible like huge cuts and there's

like a fun to see it's amazing. the part i talk tom is located near or best door for the region's best known winter sports resort. but the alkaloid isn't just famous for its nature and winter sports it's also home to germany's most famous castle noise traunch time. each year someone and a half 1000000 visitors flock to see it. what would look big the 2nd think. the enter verted king of the very a built noise feinstein as a place of refuge somewhere he could retreat into his own fairytale world. another place that's pretty as a picture is the pilgrimage church of peace. gotten. in

738 ringback a peasant woman is said to have seen tears in the eyes of a statue of jesus many called it a miracle. soon became a place of pilgrimage today it's rococo church is a unesco world heritage site. if you have plans to visit the algo it's best to fly to munich and rent a car not only will you be able to get from one place to the next you will be treated to speak tackler nature at every turn. before i started be a full length part of my journey we're going to hop on over to the other side of

the elves to italy our of europe with llamas and we were still there from ukraine send us a video from her trip to venice the visit to the city of water was a mother's day gift from her son and as she told us it left her in.

i've arrived at my next stop nestled here i'm going to rent the equipment i need for my next endeavor an introduction to the biathlon. so. my instructor for the day is to flick.

ok ok let's go and you're probably a bit faster than me yes he's a traditional way and i'll skate and so i guess i'll see you in half an hour sounds good. so i left. the biathlon is extremely popular in germany or at least lots of people like to watch the competitions on t.v. . welcome them to how did the biathlon originate who came up with the idea of putting cross-country skiing and rifle shooting together hoofing is cross-country skiing has always been popular in scandinavia even for hunting with a weapon that's how the idea was born to be born. in germany most by athletes are in the military that means they train under professional conditions the biathlon isn't really a recreational sport but here and nestled among those who are curious can give it

a try. for it so you my good here's what you do and you know down by your balls to the starting out as you can see there's already a bit of snow on our weapons. ok the skiing really gets your heart pumping that makes it difficult to hold the rifle steady and hit the targets 50 meters away. you pull back push and how long does it take pros to do this. goes really quick well practice makes perfect. a no. again. no no i've looked through here there and i've been using the wrong one right here through this little hole in the book. i think what i've got now you get so much better there's a. 0. 00000000 hit

now i'm ready for a little friendly competition. oh you've got ready set. go go. i'm going to pass you ok ok the final spurt and we made it. gradually yes i have to admit that was a lot of fun unfortunately by athlon is only practiced on the competitive level luckily around these parts there are plenty of other ways to have fun in the snow here are a couple of. the

most popular winter pass time downhill skiing. the alkaloid boasts 43 ski resorts with over 500 kilometers of slopes. that haul in and neighbors hauling are among the best known. and of course there is also cross country there are around 1000 kilometers of groomed trails in the i'll go. sledding as loads of fun at the region's numerous toboggan runs. many can be reached by mountain railway or cable car. you can also go snowshoeing this tour leads to the top of a 1500 metre alpine peak. participants also get to build an igloo and then sleep in it. we have to be finished before dark. the. next day

finishing the job quickly is the order of the day it's minus 4 degrees celsius inside the eagle who cooler than being in a refrigerator yet it's still warmer than it is outdoors. morning guys the next morning the group is richly rewarded with stunning views for braving that chilly night. the. next we pay a visit to the cheese making school and linden back here they offer workshops where people can learn how to make a spots and the popular cheesy pasta dish is a specialty of the. even the cheese is handmade here.

what do we need for it you know what's the most important thing when it comes to making a good cheese. and good milk milk and where can you find the best milk in germany in the i'll go of course a very good choice to turn the milk into cheese will need some lactic acid bacteria and the coagulant the mixture is then heated to 35 degree celsius here this is the same let's test it take this kind of knife and stick it into the milk you know right now lifted like you would have. it's like yogurt not right to put it. the smaller the pieces the firmer the cheese gets. back to the 4th. it's heated and stirred some more and the whole thing all of it ladle by little. this network and we call this one big cheese. with ok.

now our cheese has to sit for 2 hours but christiane cornet the chef at the linen bag a whole has prepared another cheese for us to make our case spots and with so now we're making the noodle dough. this is guns and the recipe is quite simple you take 2 x. proportion what around 150 grams of flour and 100 millimeters of water. let's get cracking. it's kind of a poor man's meal in the past 2 people simply took leftover cheese grated it and added it to pancakes another simple dish and flour based dishes used to be staples and they just mixed something with it to get more of. the noodle goes finished it's time to put it in hot salty water. it's not as salty as the mediterranean but in that general direction here we have our share to

a greater bonus but you can also use a press you put it in here old fill it with dough start writing and told in that way. no sooner said than done it's also hard and the noodles look just like they should. cook them for a minute or 2 removed from the water and then add the cheese the mixture should be tossed rather than stirred until the cheese evenly distributed then topped the noodles with fried onions and some mountain herbs and we've got ourselves some delicious betfair himself food. people here in the elbow might not be too crazy about counting calories but they're very eager when it comes to keep in their traditions alive a good example for that is the annual corn sleds race in florida and then ventures to bargain chase that puts a funny spin on century old customs. for decades the fairy in town of homs has hosted its traditional show lingo regs.

on the beasts that just with dramas participants korea down a 1000 meter long slope into the valley below with blessings from above. their clergymen are among the riders protestant and catholic alike but shopaholic i think the lord understands it when he sees the opportunity to goof around. i think it pleases him. 20 minutes later they are up at the starting line in fact the 2 chechnyan are taking the inaugural run. this really don't want to disgrace eyes of the catholic or the protestant church so we'll just do it. strikes 12 the race begins. the catholic priest discussed that with precision while his protestant copilot was on fire denying. the godly team crosses

the finish line hallelujah. the fun i thought we came out surprisingly well because no mishaps isha he answered i feel a lot better than an hour ago. the ride was a kilometer long and the intrepid sled just experience that 200 metre drop in elevation between the start on the finish line. something that looks incredibly dangerous there are surprisingly few injuries. the. braking isn't allowed unless it's not intentional and only traditional style sledging is optimistic to race. but everyone gets a place in the final rankings as long as they and the national make it to the finish. that's why obviously just with the horn shakes promised cool shelling got

a. coloring book showing it comes from the bavarian sri lanka or schlink island which means to move back and forth every from the left to the right shoulder but that's where the name comes from 3 computers and i don't know my own the shilling the race is unique in every way just like things were originally used to transport hay and firewood down from the mountain into the valley. the locals demonstrate just how it was done the. russian angle race certainly is heaps of fun. now for something completely different i'm going to. the carriage museum and bought hinterland it's a labor of love for a passionate local collector but at times you get the sense you're in

a chamber of horrors the museum exhibits a large variety of sleaze and carriages fitted out with all sorts of paraphernalia . one of the museums of most valuable pieces is this bill he me in funeral carriage. the man behind the museum is my team veba he's a local contractor who's traveled throughout europe in search of items for his collection the carriage museum might not be everyone's cup of tea but there is no denying that a lot of dedication and imagination has gone into putting it together. now off to warmer climes we're heading to colombia our globe trotters steve has visited cali in the southwest of the country it's one of the oldest cities in the america and the self-proclaimed salsa capital of the world.

yes me go see em when you don't leave me in this episode we don't explore the city of santa and we're going to do something out of the city this time with me as my buddy from germany. we are hiking up with the settlers they left. the hill with the story crossed over to get an overview of cali and we already have on the way out pretty nice. are you feeling. really cool for your from. since we are in the cell cycle. we need to learn from your right and the instructor you have

you get to carry up some info on your way to find the restaurants bars. and other streets to. never announce that i'm going to say that this is the neighborhood of the town for the same thing. when you walk around some and when you should get a place at the summit or go for the main thing you know you're from here or because . it's raining in the rain forest we drove 3 hours out of cali to do another teach work which is actually really. pacific coast we're now in sun cipriani where we take. the certification. and we're going to go
