I was here in July, and there were lots of edelweiss blooming. It was a beautiful mountain meadow.

Every meter uphill is worth it; a stunning mountain lake with a beautiful meadow around it invites you to linger. This year, you could even jump into the cool water at the end of June, even though it was still quite cold ;)
