Where the wild waters rush: Segnesboden, Flims

2021-07-11T11:37:51-04:00

Meander the elevated plain of Segnesboden, a pearl in a shell created by the dazzling rock formations of the UNESCO World Heritage Tectonic Arena. Here, water glides and gushes and roars, and wildflowers twinkle.

Slowly, slowly, slowly in La Punt Chamues-ch: Upper Engadine, Switzerland

2020-11-26T08:21:07-05:00

It's funny how days that are planned to be easy rather than spectacular can be the most memorable of all, as we find out on holiday with a toddler in La Punt Chamues-ch.

2020-11-12T08:12:02-05:00

Gstaad in all its untouched glory

2020-10-15T11:47:31-04:00

Gstaad. The good looks of a picture-book village, where low-slung chalets nestle between Postman Pat-style rolling hills.

How wrong I could have been.

2020-10-15T08:48:21-04:00

Narnia comes to mind - that moment when the White Witch has been defeated and winter is beginning to melt. For we are walking between frozen trees, their branches like intricate wrought iron railings dusted in snow. But above, the vivid palette of autumn rages in a froth of rust and sienna.

High and wild in Zermatt

2020-10-15T05:27:03-04:00

Autumn days, when loose cloud tangles in a cool blue sky and the trees look like crackling fires, are made for hiking in Switzerland. A lovely option is the route from Kronberg to Weissbad in Appenzellerland.
