My Visit to Zurich - 30.5.25 to 27.7.25

1.6.25 - Planing for a trekking around Appenzell 85 kms from home. Got up at 5:30am, brushed, bathed, meditated, had breakfast (Strawberries, Blueberries, Poha Upma and Sanjeevani) Nirmalya and Shalini explained nicely about their journey in acquiring their platinum AI card. Let me see if I could get a gold card😊. Had started at 8:40am. Took our jackets and walking sticks. Nirmalya my son in law drove and we reached Appenzell and started the trekking at 10:30am to see the Seealpsee a lake atop the mountains. On our way to the lake we took a detour to have Butterbrot (Butter Bread) and Yogurt from a farm store. After the snacks took a dip (leg alone) at the lake’s chill water. It was refreshing and rejuvenating, it took away all the stress and pain in the legs

Seealpsee - the lake atop the mountains which was our trekking destination.

Flammkuchen - Veggie version

The restaurant just before the lake that severed us with Butter bread.

The restaurants cows, who’s milk was used to make the butter that we had😊.

Butterbrott 😀

Guess distance to our destination 😀

we followed a tougher route and not the service lane while climbing but resorted to service lane down hill.

Down hill we had yummy 🤤 Cone ice cream from a self served vending machine at 3 CHF each.

On our way back my daughter Shalini drove back.

It was a lovely trekking experience which we all liked thoroughly🤩.

Further climbing up from the lake would have taken us to the hill top hut which one could stay over night😱.

Here is the link to the GoPro recording of our trekking.
