real stunner.

Interlaken/ Grindelwald Video
With just a smattering of exciting
Interlaken scenes and a much more complete view of the superb

tour de force. Helped by the staggering mountains that tower
over Grindelwald, the makers of this video took advantage of the
beautiful town and surroundings.

Europe than that around the Lake of Geneva. Viewed from many

Naturally the lake is there all year, but summer is the best
time to see, swim, dine and just hang out.

Switzerland. Instead it provides an overall picture of this
small country full of mountains. Here though there is a
generous helping of Swiss lakes and mountains. Worth seeing
if you are thinking of visiting Switzerland.

Austrian Salzburg Video
No I won’t tell you
that a certain movie made this famous city world renowned.
Perhaps it was Mozart, the famous composer or again perhaps
it was just the sheer beauty of the surrounds. Remember the
hills are alive and all that. Whatever; Salzburg is full of places to see and things to
do and this video will provide you with a good idea of
what’s on tap.

Veldon on Worthersee Austria
Video
In a related
www.lakesmountainseurope.com
story I likened this magnificently beautiful region to Italy ,
such was the laid back atmosphere. In the video we
discovered for you the narrator describes the atmosphere as Mediterranean. That’ll do. In any event this video
provides a fantastic idea of one of Europe’s most magnificent lakes and mountains regions.

Vienna
Austria
Video
Trying to describe
this amazing modern but historical city is difficult but the
video featured here sure makes life a bit easier. There is a
world of difference in Vienna
and most of the rest of
Austria . Possibly the video featured
here does not express that, but it does tell you what to see
and do in this most famous of European cities.

Innsbruck Tirol
Austria Video
Ah Innsbruck the capital of the Austrian Tirol.
What a place for culture! What a base for mountain sports! Innsbruck has a lot to
offer on its own, but when you combine it with its
surrounding holiday villages it is a humdinger of a place to
see. The video takes in all seasons and most nearby
locations and activities. Although this video is on the long
side it is well worth viewing if you are planning a visit.

Champochet. This video is also in Italian and even if you do
not understand the language you will get the message.

beauty of this part of
Italy and give you a small idea of
the majestic stature of the Italian Domomite mountain range.

Cote D' Azures Travel Video
The French Rivera really needs no introduction does it? Here
is a reasonable short video that will give you some idea of
what's in store for mere mortal visitors, the ones like you
and me. This video in - oh so soft German - tells you much
about the different stops along the world famous Rivera.
This video uses up its full 3 minutes visiting each city and
its heavenly bodies as you go. Monaco, Nice, Cannes all are
represented. Not going? Watch the video and say you are.

Mont Blanc Video
This is a video
edition of an ultra marathon around the massif
Mont Blanc . What a stunning and
professionally prepared work it is! Fifteen hundred
competitors entered this competition. A total of 155 kms was
covered over three countries,
France,
Italy and
Switzerland. The
eventual sinner was Vincent Delebarre and it took him
a grueling 21 hours. Your big plus is that you get to see
the beauty and majesty of
Europe’s highest mountain close up.

Another newer funny video from
the folks at Jib Jab. It portrays in music the awful

forced to watch. Great laughs on the serious side.

Bear Mountain Videos
We are going to direct you to
this page as the folks at Bear Mountain in the USA have
a nice little selection of videos for you to choose
from. One, without comment shows an aerial view of the
whole mountain region. Two of the others are quite
lively and feature snowboarding, no comment and what I
can only describe as young people's music in the
background. The fourth seems to be a rehash of last
winter. Again snowboarding. Do they allow skiers here?

Copper Mountain Videos
This resort too has a selection
of videos that you can choose from. You can choose
from a selection of skiing, snowboarding and
partying. Once again we are going to just direct you
to their video page and let you make your own

between bloopers, partying, family activities and
others. Go on, fill your boots.
