What is this place?

Take a hike is built to document my hiking explorations across Switzerland, with hopes it can help others in finding their own.
… and to have a convenient spot to redirect my friends to, when they ask me for a hike recommendation. ๐Ÿ™‚

What can you find here?

The hikes will be described by:

  • Accompanying photos – so you get an idea of the views you could expect
  • Some key technical details – like altitude, ascent, distance, etc. – so you can estimate how demanding it could be
    (Note: Time is noted as the one I recorded, without larger breaks – and that depends on you)
  • GPS details of the route via http://www.wandermap.net/ (where you can export the GPS data), along with my Strava tracking which will not always show correct numbers ๐Ÿ™‚
  • Some notes that I find relevant (e.g. dog-friendly), as well as if there is any nourishment and (vertical) transport available along the way

Each post hosts a comment section where I will happily answer anything you are curious about related to the specific hike, e.g. alternative/shorter routes.
Yet if you have any additional feedback or ideas on how to improve this site further, please use the contact form below.

Now go and take a hike!
