September 2, 2025,Von Montreux nach Bergpfad – 1055 Stufen
I quickly put it together on Komoot. The steps sounded pretty good, but I was worried the way back might be too boring. Spoiler: it wasn't. A truly amazing gorge with a huge roar of water and a scree slope on the opposite slope... Even the Swiss can make architectural mistakes, but also bridges 😉. There was also a lost-place …
