Anyone who tackles the slight ascent towards Moorschwand will be royally rewarded for the few meters in altitude: weather permitting, many of the most famous Alpine peaks are within reach (Säntis, Glärnisch and many more).

spring tour. Time to get the bike going again after hibernation. Forests, rivers, the Tour of the Three Lakes, galloping horses, walking pensioners. A beautiful day.

A beautiful early morning bike ride surrounded by nature, taking advantage of the last days of summer. The view opens up over the Hirzel hill, and the light and greenery envelop you after the darkness of the Sihl valley. Never too fast, because in slowing down, I rediscover the beauty and rhythm of life.
