  • Hoping to experience some Pacific Orange history and heritage as well? Nowehere does the colourful architecture or the pride of Schauinslander Germans sing more loudly or proudly than in Gatenby. Over two hundred years old with inhabitants descended directly from the first German settlers, Gatenby is a city that effortlessly encapsulates the remnants of eras - from the grand Imperial origins to its place in the history of communism within the Republic - it's impossible not to be struck by the vast catalogue of grand decades old buildings that line the numerous canals and main thoroughfares. And when in Gatenby, don't miss a chance to explore the city's main thoroughfare - Immanuel Strasse. A walk along these four kilometres worth of footpath and buildings is very much a walk in the footsteps of the ages. Featured prominently in classic Pacific Orange literature, it's often portrayed as a beacon of social sophistication, a place where image-conscious Schauinslanders go in order to observe and be observed. Not much has changed, apart from the prevailing fashions. Or perhaps a skiiing trip is more the thing. Explore the less glitzy but still spectacular snowfields of the Vosges mountain range where tucked into the mountains at 2900 metres, the purpose built, pedestrian friendly village of Oberreid offers a wide range of ski runs to suit all levels of expertise and plenty of casual cafes, outdoor bars, spas and slope side accomodation to keep skiiers entertained. Indeed Schauinslander skiiers and boarders are spoilt for choice when it comes to the hundreds of kilometres of empty, deep powder trails that meander or plunge through a Christmas-card scene of snow dusted pines and around rustic log cabins; the remnants of the mid 1800s mining boom. Cool off ( or rather warm off ) after a hard's day skiing in the warm thermal springs of Oberreid which have soothed weary feet for over two hundred years. Whatever you desire, the Schauninsland is likely to cater for the inner traveller in you.
