IN rut EGGEN-TAL : AUSTRIAN TYROI. 

 "Narrow stony, dustv or muddy, steep in gradient, going straight up where they can, 

 turning abruptly where they must, they (the roads) are everythmg that a road ought not to 

 be, yet they are glorified by the wonderful country they traverse. . . Loveliest perhaps 



of all is that through the Eggen-Tal (valley), with the Rosengarten and the peaks of Lateniar 

 at one end, Schloss Karneid on its proud eyrie at the other, and the noisy little river running 

 between rocks hand in hand with the road" (see text, pages 341 and 348).
