Hiking the Via Alpina | Griesalp - Hohtürli - Kandersteg
I finally completed the Via Alpina in Switzerland! After 18 days on the trail, I concluded my final stage at Kandersteg, climbing Hohtürli pass and stopping for a swim in the beautiful mountain lake, Oescheninsee.
This summer, I start my great adventure across Switzerland: hiking the Via Alpina green trail. The fourth stage of the Via Alpina hike is a long stretch from Altdorf to Engelberg. Our path takes us 99km from Obwalden through the Bernese Alps to walk alongside rivers, glaciers, and Switzerland's tourist attractions.
