Gstaad

After a few great days in the Swiss National Park, we made our way to the town of Gstaad. Though it was a 6 hour train ride, we had a great time and spent a few days hiking, relaxing and just enjoying being in the Alps.

The photos below are in no particular order.

Enjoy!

Six Years and Counting!

To help celebrate our 6th anniversary, we thought we would spend a few days hiking and exploring the Swiss National Park. We had a great time, hiked miles each day and explored a new area of Switzerland.
