Tips

July 18, 2022

Cycling

From the Morteratsch train station there are always columns that show you the retreat of the glacier. At the train station, the glacier used to be in 1870. Here at this point it was already 1970. Ok, but then suddenly our children’s age groups come along. And now it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up even more. Our water depot is constantly decreasing and every year it is not only getting less, it is getting less and less and faster...

Gravel bike without motor. Makeable.
