It was really time to start again. Lots of forest and shade. Of course on one or other trail. It was great👍

Up the mountain path to Pardiel. On the descent, at Schwamm, head towards Mutt, then descend to the old mid-station. From Balen to Pfafers, take the main road and then descend the Geissentraum trail under the new Tamina Gorge Bridge. Trails descend to the grand resort of Bad Ragaz.

Today we took advantage of the good weather again and visited the Pizol area. A very beautiful, varied tour in the best conditions. The sun kept the temperature pleasant even at 1800 meters.
