We decided to stay in Ehrwald due to our plans for the morning, but little did we know that we had decided to camp on one of the busiest nights of the year, to to the annual Bergfeuer event. Thankfully we managed to find a nice campsite who allowed us to squeeze in for the night, before heading out to join the festivities.

It was all a bit crazy with the roads being full with lots of „interesting“ parking, parking in random farmers fields and just generally stopping wherever it was just about possible to stop. Thankfully we found somewhere to park which wasn‘t so silly, and joined the crowds admiring the mountain fires. We were really surprised by how detailed some of the designs were, given that they were being created by fire on the side of the mountain. It was really interesting to watch them grow from the initial flames into the full designs.
