Urnerland ^ – What a spectacle of nature!

24.08.2023 – It was perhaps one of my most enjoyable day trails I have ever done! It was truly a spectacle of impressions and emotions. First to kick off at dawn with a sunny forecast. This atmosphere, this silence and sounds of nature – impressive. Then these views and these scents, indescribable! So many different shapes and colours of Alpine lakes! From deep blue to turqoise to transparent! Between mountains and valleys, between heights and depths, in the water castle of Switzerland, of Europe – speechless!

This mountainous landscape is serene and clean, yet it also left me feeling drained and at peace.

This was my route (I had around 5-6 hours): Arnisee – Sunniggrätli – Ruchälplistock – Jakobiger – Leidsee – Leutschachhütte – Leitschachtal – Wichelpass – Wichelhorn – Schindlachtal – Schindlachtalhütte – Arnisee.

I have been trail running and hiking for years in Switzerland and am continually surprised by this heartwarming landscape!
