Hiking across Vaud on the Swiss Via Alpina, from L’Etivaz – Rossinière – Rochers de Naye – Montreux

This three-day hike has completely changed my idea of Montreux, by finding out what’s around it and above it. Beautiful mountains aren’t just in the Berner Oberland, after all.

Hiking Stage 14 of the Via Alpina from Kandersteg to Adelboden

The hiking season passed by too quickly last year, so this year I’m trying to make better use of it. After ticking off two more Via Alpina hikes the previous two weekends (Griesalp-Kandersteg and Engelberg-Meiringen), I decided to continue from where I left off in Kandersteg and head towards Adelboden.
