Welcome!

Visit Switzerland

Five days of solo hiking through Switzerland’s quieter Fribourg mountains — solitude, fear, and lessons on slowing down. Life is short, and we rarely know when we’re experiencing something for the last time. So, I spent five days hiking solo through the less popular Swiss regions, looking for solitude, and collecting a few lessons along the way about fear, slowing down, and simply making the most of the time we have. 💬 Want to follow more of my journey through Switzerland?

Solo Hiking Adventure in the Swiss Mountains | The Swiss Outdoor Diaries with Sylvia
Imagine having the roads completely car-free for an entire day, surrounded by beautiful scenery – open roads for cyclists, skaters and everyone on foot 🚲✨ That’s exactly what SlowUp is all about: car-free roads, good vibes and a fun way to explore Switzerland at your own pace. SlowUp is actually a series of car-free events taking place across Switzerland, each one highlighting a different region. We joined the SlowUp day at Bodensee and cycled streets in the canton of Thurgau, Switzerland’s apple country 🍎, with Lake Constance as our backdrop. Along the way: local apples and berries, live music, beautiful views and plenty of reasons to slow down. And honestly, it’s experiences like this that remind us: Switzerland is worth a visit all year round. 🇨🇭 Would you join a SlowUp event? 👇

On the Sentier Viticole wine trail, joie de vivre, indulgence, and wine culture come together. In the fall, the vineyards are at their most beautiful. While the leaves glow in shades of yellow, copper, and red, the sun is still strong enough to bathe the slopes above the Rhône Valley in warm light. Between Sierre and Salgesch, the Sentier Viticole winds its way through this riot of colors for just a few kilometers. A hiking trail that takes you right into the heart of the Valais way of life—full of aromas, stories, and moments of pleasure. 🇨🇭 Liked this video?

Walk barefoot through a real Swiss moor on the Mettilimoos Moor Path near Finsterwald 🌿 Deep in the UNESCO Biosphere Entlebuch, this 14 km loop winds through raised bogs and flower-rich fenlands most travelers never see. The highlight: a moor-treading basin where you step right into the peat and feel it beneath your bare feet. 👣 📍 Mettilimoos Moor Path, UNESCO Biosphere Entlebuch

For @zelfino even the unexpected moments are part of the inspiration. He’s exploring Glarnerland @glarnerland1577 meeting people and collecting colours along the way — all before turning the experience into a mountain of his own. See what ends up on the slate in the full episode.
Expectation: peacefully taking in Glarnerland from above 🪂Reality: …not quite. | Switzerland Tourism
