Hiking comes natural for a Swiss. However, it can be exhausting, so the best thing is to take breaks, which also gives you a chance to enjoy the beautiful surrounding and scenery. Once you choose to go up a mountain, you don’t know what you’ll find on the way up there. That gives you a sense of exploration that keeps you going until you’re reach the top. At least that’s how it works for me! Join the conversation! Godspeed, Tom #halfway #niesen #hiking #swissmountains #exploreoutdoors #takebreaks #thunersee #aeschiried #beautifu...
