Erik and I finally got to hike up the mountain behind our house. We have been up there a couple times before, but only on the Gondola. The top of the Staubern reaches 1751 meters. It took us two hours to get to the top. We ran into our landlord on the way. He told us that he was one who helped build the trail to the top and said it took 16 years. Great hike, steep at times and the weather was gorgeous once we got above the clouds.
Halfway.
Barns along the way. This is where the cows come live for the summer. They also walk along the trail. There are no roads to these barns therefore necessities that can't be carried are delivered via helicopter.
The Rhein Valley
These pieces of would are positioned to avoid avalanche.
We live down under these clouds.
View along the ridge.
There is a house on top that serves food and has rooms to stay in.
The stick I found on the way.
We rode the Gondola back down.
