Hi Martin,
Where was this taken? From the flag it almost looks like Italy?
Nice shot!

I think it is Grossglockner (southern end). but coud be wrong. ;

Thanks Henk!
It could be Grossglockner - from the Italian side.
Austrian flag is red/white/red, this one looks like green/white/red.
I guess we have to wait for Martin to confirm!

Hi Elfie, it is Rifugio Lorenzi near Cortina d'Ampezzo in the Italian Dolomites, To get to it, I went up on a hair raising contraption which was in constant motion. Yes you had to jump in and then out again! See the 3rd photo in this website. There are more photos of this pod-lift further down the page.

No it's in the Cristallo group of the Italian Dolomites.

Thanks Martin!
Sounds like that was quite a "hike"!
Good for you!
Those pods are over 60 years old, amazing they are still in operation!

I remember those Olympics in 1956 - Austria did quite well.
