A Trekking Adventure in Switzerland

Thirty five years ago I started dreaming about hiking in the Alps. I filled a folder with pictures and articles from travel magazines. In December Bill and I watched a documentary on Switzerland and I realized the time had come to fulfill my dream. I began upping my workouts and hired a great personal trainer to help me build my strength, endurance and stamina as well as my balance. I researched companies to support my hike and chose Alpenwild. I learned that the difference between a hike and a trek is that a hike begins and ends in the same place while a trek is a continuous journey from point A to point B and C and so on. Alpenwild has provided all my maps, info, hotel reservations, rail passes, luggage transfers between hotels, everything I need. Now it's up to me to do actual work. Since Bill is not a fan of high altitude hiking nor steep drop-offs, he has chosen to stay home and mind the feline livestock and support me from afar. My adventure begins August 26.
