Will/Bill's Grand European Tour
On 19 April 2017 I depart from Australia to Europe for almost three months of largely hiking; some new hikes in France, Spain, Austria and Germany, and a return to my favourite hiking villages in the Swiss Alps. An eleven day cruise with Carol from Copenhagen to St Petersburg will add stimulating variety as will a few days enjoying Salzburg with Anne and Michael Kersch as well as my first visit to Barcelona.
