Apparently Fodor's doesn't trust veteran posters if they post twice with a half dozen picture attachments within a couple of minutes. Sorry, folks, then no more pics for now. |
Good to see you here Ingo and Adelaidean!
Harley Niggi Näggi looks like a hoot quokka. Would love to see that in person. |

I was there in June 2016. Not as much snow as winter time, but we found some at the Jungfraujoch

Thanks! And here’s a photo of someone we met on our March trip to Scuol. Not in a zoo or animal park, just hanging out in the lower village. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...aa7a3527b.jpeg |
It's more than mountains:

Awesome photo, Weisser Tee!
Ahhh, I see my earlier post was approved by the moderators. |
Michael, of course you're right, Switzerland is not only about mountains. I plan to post some pics of the towns and plains later, too.
|
No, it's not all about the mountains, although personally, the mountains are a highlight for me.
It's also about the lakes... https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...fe22998f43.jpg Hiking the Gemmipass The thrill rides... https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...162ccb8d50.jpg Cable car to Leukerbad The food... https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...9a4461e023.jpg Älplermagronen And of course, the chocolate... https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...2898061163.jpg Be still my heart |
Somehow I was doing OK without severe wanderlust through the pandemic but now you guys have gone and posted these!
Here's an offering from me from September, 2017 on a Tour du Mont Blanc. The TMB is mostly in France and Italy, on my version we spent two days in Switzerland. These were all taken within a few hours of my first Swiss hike. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...5f9457aad5.jpg Looking into Valais from Grand Col Ferret https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...d09309ecfb.jpg Yurt at Alpage de la Peule https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...2dca63d3fb.jpg Lunch stop, Alpage de la Peule https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...ff328779b7.jpg Why you gain weight even while doing a lot of hiking https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...6f29af2745.jpg The valley of the Dranse de Ferret |
Thanks for your great post here Mel! Just what the doctor ordered, wonderful shots of a beautiful, lesser-known areas.
I am done. Das wunderbar. |
Oh, an owl, wow. I was very excited to see a deer and a squirrel...

You nailed it, Mel ;-)
Hi Adelaidean, the pictures of Tarasp and Soglio and Bern etc. bring back so many wonderful memories! Let's go on with 1993 ... https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...cc76d7b43f.jpg St. Moritz https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...64b2224340.jpg Morteratsch https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...09273c2d38.jpg Vaduz/Liechtenstein, castle https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...90e7200f1f.jpg Via Mala https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...75655edf69.jpg Oberalp pass |
This is fun, loving all the photos.
Last year we spent October in Switzerland, our first ever autumn visit. We'd planned to do it again this year, but couldn't of course. So here's hoping for an encore visit in October 2021. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...4b3308e807.jpg Guarda https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...00410fe76b.jpg Walking from Guarda to Bos-Cha https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...aa842a6093.jpg Walking from Guarda to Bos-Cha https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...f38ea61777.jpg Walking to Guarda to Bos-Cha https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...7e1a45c996.jpg Walking from Bos-Cha to Ardez https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...ae2453228b.jpg Chanova Ruins above Ardez https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fod...d7fdacddb9.jpg Moo! |
Nice to see you here zebec!
The owl photo reminds me of the day we were on a bus in Scuol...a guy gets on holding a falcon. Of course, I didn't have my camera at the ready so missed a great shot. Like Adelaidean, we feel lucky to see wildlife at all in Switzerland. Other than birds, all we've seen is chamois (once). No shortage of cows, goats and sheep though:) And of course those lovely Swiss cats. |
