only home to about 70000 people despite the fact that it was 1st settled over 2 centuries ago i thought i'd take a guided tour to find out more about it. while i wait for my guide to arrive i'm going to get you guys up to speed on today's temporary because of course we're not only checking out captain i want to try biathlon a combination of cross-country skiing and a rifle shooting and learn how to prepare a classic region old this other than that there's lots more to come. like sightseeing tips for the al gore including the castle and the pilgrimage church of. winter sport ideas from downhill skiing to snow shoeing and building eclipse. and a heavenly traditional bavarian sledding event the shuttling to race in front an.

actor no hello are you my guide. lovely weather we're having enough one to done one gentleman like to welcome you into our wintry tour of kempton one loses. kicks off our tour and front of the town hall it's a landmark of kempton and dates from the 14th century. but kempton is a lot older than that 2000 years ago the city was called would do know. these of these don't try to do much income but you know just over the top the roman outpost was situated on the other side of the in the river and 39 meters above it. 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 of the church of st monk was once the protestant heart of kempton and it's the oldest place of worship in town. do you got the students deserve incentives were focused in the middle of the church until around 10 years ago that talk to small fund and the altar 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 muffin hour to hear the minister and the hundreds and it was bearable. only in recent days. that's why these adjustable benches were built just flip the back rest and you have a perfect view of the pulpit pretty practical don't you think. we continue to the former catholic part of town with the basilica of st lawrence and the

representative residence of the duke abbot. and that's also where our tour of kempton and. canton is the perfect starting point for a tour through the i would go your region particularly famous for the 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 told gorge the town of business. 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 over top watch out it's really slippery for your vase and it's not. for me it's a fascinating world of rock water and ice. the but i talk i'm also a gorge in the isle going reveals another side of its natural beauty at night during torch light tours. that find its sensational 1st the rushing of the water below what you hear more than see. the ice of the ice because our incredible like huge cuts and those like up on the sea it's amazing. the but i talked thomas located near or best door

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. each year some one and a half 1000000 visitors flock to see it. what would look big the 2nd think. the enter verted king of but very have built noise as a place of refuge somewhere he could retreat into his own fairy tale world. another place that's pretty as a picture is the pilgrimage church of peace. and 1738 a peasant woman is said to have seen tears in the eyes of a statue of jesus many called it a miracle and 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 the part of my journey we're going to hop on over to the other side of the elves to italy 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 buy after launch. so. my instructor for the day is to flick.

ok ok let's go and you're probably a bit faster than me yes me the traditional way in all skaters so i guess i'll see you in half an hour. 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 how did the biathlon originate who came up with the idea of putting cross country skiing and rifle shooting together when you can use 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 in nestle those who are curious can give it a try. to it so you might good here's what you do and you know down to the started

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 metres away. so i go back. to back push and how long does it take pros to do this. goes really quick well practice makes perfect. we know. again no night in night no no i believe look to hear god there and i think i'm using the wrong one i know here through this little home cooking book if you think what i've got now you get so much better. oh i. know i hate it now i'm ready for a little friendly competition. ready so.

look out. i'm going to pass you ok ok the final spurt and we made it. congratulate you and i have to admit that was a lot of fun unfortunately by athlon is only a practice 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 past 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 of 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 eeg loop 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 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 the chilly night. next we pay a visit to the eagle eyed cheesemaking 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. was put off well what do we need for a good 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 allegory of course very good. to turn the milk into cheese will need some lactic acid bacteria and a coagulant the mixture is then heated to 35 degree celsius. let's test it take this kind of knife and stick it into the milk you know right now lifted like you would a cake so it's like yogurt right now you think you're going to put it in. the smaller the pieces the firmer the cheese gets. back to the 4th. it's heated and stirred some more. the whole thing all of it made little by little. this network and we call this a handmade 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 in

a way 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. 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 special a greater bonus but you can also use a press you put it in here old fill it with dough through them start writing. 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 varian soul 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 sledge race in florida and the venture is to bargain cheese that puts a funny spin on century old customs. for decades the fairy in town of hunger has closed its traditional show lingo regs. on these so that just with dramas participants korea down

a 1000 meter long slope into the valley below with blessings from above. the local clergyman are among the riders protestant and catholic alike when shopaholic i think the lord understands it when he sees the opportunity to goof around about it 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. only this really don't want to the screen size 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 hangs on for denying. the godly team crosses the finish line i let you yeah. fun i thought we came out surprisingly well because no mishaps isha answered i feel a lot better than an hour ago that. there really was

a kilometer long trip that sled just experience a $200.00 metre drop in elevation between stops on the finish line. something that looks incredibly dangerous there are surprisingly few injuries. oh my 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 mash laying down make it to the finish. line. that's why i'll be slick just with the whole shape to run a school shelling got. push i think it comes from the bavarian sri lanka or schlink other group which means to move back and forth every from the left

to the right that's where the name comes from 3 call did you come to know my off the shooting 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 stuff the locals demonstrate just how it was done. to shine the race simply is heaps of fun. now for something completely different i'm going to. the carriage museum and bought hinted that it's a labor of love for a passionate local collector but at times you get the sense if you're in a chamber of horrors the museum exhibits a large variety of sleighs and carriages fitted out with all sorts of paraphernalia

. one of the museums of most valuable pieces is this bill he me and funeral carriage. the man behind the museum is martine 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 kali in the southwest of the country it's one of the oldest cities in the america and the self-proclaimed capital of the world. yes me go see yemen you don't really need in this episode we don't explore the city

the capitol hill monument indicated to one of the most famous musician his name is trying to buy the land and he was the founder. and the monument you see here is basically a big from that and when you go in to the front that you can you see. thanks. in this thing to you if you want to check out the city center of the. walk along the river so you start at church and you walk along. river in the park so you get to the area of san antonio we can find old restaurants bars. and other streets.
