Probably somewhere in the Julian Alps in Slovenia around Triglav National Park.

This doesn’t rate with our visit to Assisi, in Italy, Inverness, in Scotland, or dozens of other places we’ve visited over decades. But it is the most beautiful place I have been to, today. The Kananaskis River in Kananaskis Provincial Park, in Alberta. Eight of us just got back from a 8 km (5 mile) hike.

Florence has some beautiful spots:

And I’ll chuck out my wife’s family cottage in Lake of the Woods, ON, Canada

Not the most beautiful place I've ever been, but not bad for the view out of my office window one day in April after a light dusting of snow.

Cool thread.

I'd have to say Garmisch is about the nicest place I've been (winter and summer alike)

Like Christmas every day of the year.

Also: the drive into Vienna is breathtaking, especially in the winter.

Maybe not the most beautiful place but this is where I live.

Beautiful scenery. Where is this?

I love the desert...almost "bought the farm" in this spot a few months ago due to heat stroke...Nevada desert 30 miles east of Las Vegas. Learned how difficult it is to get help out there. In the advanced stages of physical shutdown, you experience a calming wave of bliss that literally washes over you from head to toe. I understand its similar to a drug users high. Incredible inner peace. I remember thinking to myself in that delirium..."this is a good place to die". Never experienced that level of peace in my entire life. Despite the trauma(and several weeks of recovery), it is still one of my favorite spots in the world, and I would go back in a heartbeat (though my wife has forbidden it due to me officially being an "idiot").

Wow sounds horrific, good to know that the only lasting consequence is that you are an 'idiot. 😀. I hope you make a full recovery.

I fell 60ft off a mountain once( was attached to a collapsed parachute) Morphine is amazing.
