A quick trip to Zurich. Driving up and back with my friend Maja, so no trains or planes. Whew…
Yesterday did an incredible hike only two hours from Zurich. It’s in an area that is called, yes really, Heidi Land. Tall alpine mountains, lots of lakes, gorgeous. My hike was the 7 Peaks Hike.
To get there I took a tram, two trains (both alongside lakes), bus, and two (!) gondolas. Yikes. Ended up at the very top but still the hike was hard.
First , a coffee at the panoramic restaurant. Well, I’m not in Italy anymore: weak coffee. Sigh… But the view was great and there were sheepskin blankets at all the seats. You can see the gondola below.
Then up and at ’em. The first peak was Ziger. Very near by.
One down. Six to go. Took my time. Took the views. You never know what you’ll see.
Leist was #2. Then a major descent but then up up up.
Ready for lunch by this time!
To be continued when I’m not so tired…
