The Hintertux Glacier - Austria

If you are lucky enough to visit the top on a clear day, you can see for miles and miles. The view is like no where else on the planet, truly breath taking!

The Millau Bridge is amazing, did that one last year.

How about the Autodromo di Monza, as you can walk around it, cycle, rollerblade around the whole circuit in the evenings and the old part of the circuit is still there lying in ruins.

When i was there about a month ago there was a big club of rollerbladers going around, i chose the scooter!!

And in view of the current f1 on the tv, Spafrancorchamps is an awesome circuit, the race meeting i am at next is a 6 hour race there and you can get right to the top of la source and its amazing.

When I went there last year, it had been snowing non stop for about a week, so the whole area was covered in snow, but luckily that day it was clear with bright sunshine, and there were zero clouds! I have some pictures somewhere I think...

Stop being so Northern :)

Seriously, you can now get a long way into Europe in the time it takes to get to Cornwall.
