Seven days hiking the Via Alpina | Part 2
This seven-day trek marks the longest hiking trip Oda and I have done. Spending a week immersed in the mountains and dining on local food offers such a lovely peek into life in Switzerland. I've always felt that walking through a place is one of the best ways to get to know it. The Via Alpina proved me right.
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.
