. actor no hello are you my guide to the lovely weather we're having. one to the morning that ladies and gentlemen i like to welcome you to our wintry tour of kempton won't lose it. 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 no. in these at least don't. come but do no more 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 the church of st mung was once the protestant heart of kempton and it's the oldest place of worship in town. do you got the students the services were focused in the middle of the church until around 10 years ago because it talks to small front 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 mufon out to hear the minister and the hundreds it was variable. only in recent days for. that's why these adjustable benches were built just flip the back rest and while you have a perfect view of the pope it 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. yeah. canton is the perfect starting point for a tour through the outgoing a 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 talk of 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 over thought watch out it's really slippery. as in it's not. right . it's a fascinating world of rock water and ice every. the but i talk clam also of course in the al gore reveals another side of its natural beauty at night during torch light tours. let's find it sensational 1st the rushing of the water below what you hear more than see. the ice of the ice because our incredibles like huge curtain was like a fantasy it's amazing. the pot i talk tom is located near or best door to regions

best known winter sports resort. but the alkaloid isn't just famous for its nature in winter sports it's also home to germany's most famous castle noise sean stein. each year some one and a half 1000000 visitors flock to see it. what would look big the 2nd think. the introverted king of but very a built noise 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 vece near stein 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 the athletic 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 anywhere 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.

it's either 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 you're probably a bit faster than me yes me the traditional way and all skated so i guess i'll see you in half an hour sounds good. but 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 who thing is cross-country skiing has always been popular in scandinavia even for hunting with a weapon that's how the idea was born and we're 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 you my good here's what you do and you know down by your goals 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 meters 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 lie in lie no no i've lived through here died there and i have been using the wrong one i know here for this little hole but look if you think what i've got now you get so much better. oh i. know i was ok and it now i'm ready for a little friendly competition. ready said.

look out. i'm going to pass you ok ok the final spurt and we made it. congratulations 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 pastime downhill skiing. the alkaloid boasts 43 ski resorts with over 500 kilometers of slopes. and hauling and neighbors hauling are

among the best known. and of course there is also cross country there are around 1000 kilometers of groomed trails and the i'll go. sledding is 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 include 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. all 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 eye cheesemaking school and linden back here they offer a workshops where people can learn how to make a spots in the popular cheesy pasta dish as a specialty of the. even the cheese is handmade here. 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 we can find the best milk in germany in

the algo you 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. this is the same let's . 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 in. the smaller the pieces the firmware at the cheese gets. back and forth. it's heated and stirred some more and the whole thing all effects they little by little. this network and we call this one big cheese. with well 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 the way so now

we're making the noodle dough this is the recipe is quite simple if you take 2 weeks proportion what around 150 grams of flour and 100 milliliters 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. this mission may have if not a salty as the mediterranean but in the general direction of the of the new here we have our special a great article and but you can also use a press you put it in here old fill it with dough start writing torben one day. 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 yellow going 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 angle corn sledge race in florida and then ventures to bargain chase that puts a funny spin on century old customs. for decades the barbarian town of hong has closed its traditional show lingo regs. on these sledges with all unchanged dramas participants korea down

a 1000 meter long slope into the valley below with blessings from above. local clergyman are among the riders protestant and catholic alike but shopaholic i think the lord understands it when he sees the opportunity to goof around and i think it pleases him if. 20 minutes later they're up at the starting line in fact the 2 chechnyan up taking the inaugural run. only just read we don't want to disregard of the catholic or the protestant church so we'll just do it. when the clock strikes 12 the race begins. the catholic priest does the stretch with criss asian while his protestant copilot hangs on for dear life the godly team crosses the finish line i let you yeah. but i thought we came out surprisingly well because no mishaps isha it's going to be

a lot better than an hour ago. the run was a kilometer long trip that sled just experiencing 200 meter 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 puzzling as they and the actual angle make it to the finish. why are these snitches with the horn shaped to run a school shelling got. counseling or comes from the bulgarian sri lanka or schlink others which means to move back and forth to be run the left to

the right that's where the name comes from i recall did you go home good know my the feeling the race is unique in every way just like things were originally used to transport hay in firewood down from the mountain into the valley and some of the locals demonstrate just how it was done in. the shining the race certainly is heaps of fun. but. now for something completely different i'm going to check out the carriage museum and by the 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 sleighs and carriages fitted out with all sorts of paraphernalia

. one of the museums and most valuable pieces is this bill he me in funeral carriage. the man behind the museum is my teen veba he's a local contractor who's traveled throughout europe and 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 pain is with it and cali 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 i mean you don't really need in this episode we don't explore the

city of santa and we're going to do something trips out of the city this time with me as my buddy from germany. we are hiking up to the set of the last 3 exclusives to hell with the 3 crosses to get an overview of kali and we already have on the way up pretty nicely. are you feeling. really clear from here. since we are in the sales cycle. we need to learn some sorry you're right i've never seen strain on our. little group. i feel how does it let's get harder.

as we can but that was our 1st monument getting hit to one of the most famous musician his name is dr who by the left and he was the founder of pollution from the time and the monument you see here is basically a big from here and when you go into something you can hear something. thank. you. and the other thing to do if you want to check out the city center of cali is to walk along the river so you basically start at the church and you walk number. over in the park so you guessed area san antonio we can find all the restaurants bars. and.

never announce that i'm going to set this if neighborhood of the town pretty safe place. when you walk around san antonio should get to listen to some information for the remaining year a year from here because. if it's raining in the rain forest we drove 3 hours out of cali to do another d.h. work which section really. sick when our son cipriani where we take. our. next transportation. and we're going to go swimming to get more waves. so we made it to sun to be young and now. next make stuff

to being we're walking up to go like one hour to go swimming and them which you've been down. this river over here. said no way to end my visit to the algo region then with a walk through the incredibly enchanting mountain landscape. there. where it ends my little tour of the algo no matter if you're into winter sports or nature whether you're a fan of time honored traditions or quirky curiosities we tween kempton and by
