In thick fog, we ascend to Hochgrat in the Allgäu. On deserted slopes and in falling dusk, we plunge death-defyingly into the depths with visibility near zero, for we have no choice and no time: we must be back at the valley station in time to catch the last bus of the day to Oberstaufen!... |

3. 05. 2019 15:14:13
Early May brings spring almost everywhere. However, at Hochhäderich at the western end of the Nagelfluhkette in the Allgäu, there is still enough snow to don summer clothes and go on touring skis once more. Some short hikes in ski boots must of course be factored in. The descent in heavy spring slus... |

18. 01. 2021 22:47:29
On this small winter first flight with the Mavic Air 2, I circle the Bündner mountain village Schmitten very, very slowly and carefully.

27. 05. 2021 17:56:52
The wildly romantic Schaftobel path near Filisur, closed since 2017 for safety reasons, is one of the most beautiful trails in the Albulatal for me.
