I haven't joined that yet, so the only information I have is from their site, which says: konvoi to the Lucknerhaus (height 1920m).
Thats on my list too. If we want to exchange more about that, we should probably start a new thread, instead of hijacking this one.

I'm not sure but I was focusing on the license plate and I think those are 1963 Ontario, Canada license plates?

I thought those might be Ontario plates but my eyes are too fuzzy to make it out. Wonder what became of those buses or that company? 63' plates on 64' or so buses? Hmm. Many thanks

The '63 plates from my OG Toronto, Ontario VW are black and similar to those on the Buses.
