travelers stories about Highland in Stockentalstrasse, Switzerland

Highland in Stockentalstrasse, Switzerland

  7 km from Niesen


…we said and even though it was already 11pm we loaded our gear into the grey VW Polo and drove home to a colleague with having in mind to probably shoot some timelapses on the way. The results became awesome and we got some sleep while our cameras clicked their lapses.

After about one hour of hiking in the Swiss Alps, me and my friends made it to this gem of lake. We waited over two hours till the wind was not blowing that much. Suddenly the fog rolled in.

One of the most impressive lakes in Switzerland I’ve visited! We were photographing around the lake when suddenly the fog rolled in. It was an incredible amazing mood.

travelers stories about Hill station in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

Hill station in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

  20 km from Niesen


Ever gone to Switzerland? It’s a great place to just wander off somewhere and to get completely lost in the mountains. That is what we did here. This way you can sit and marvel at the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau in total solitude.

After snapping some photos from the window room, I lied on the bed to rest my legs for a while. After 20 minutes, I saw the last rays of light coloring the top of the Jungfrau and could not help myself snapping more pictures while sitting on the bed.

travelers stories about Waterfall in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

Waterfall in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

  20 km from Niesen


Lauterbrunnen is situated in one of the most impressive trough valleys in the Alps, between gigantic rock faces and mountain peaks. With its 72 thundering waterfalls, secluded valleys, colourful alpine meadows and lonely mountain inns, the Lauterbrunnen Valley is one of the biggest nature conservation areas in Switzerland. J.R.R.Tolkinen hiked from Interlaken to the Lauterbrunnen Valley in 1911. The landscape later provided the concept and pictorial model for his sketches of the fictitious valley of Rivendell.

travelers stories about Hill in Jaunpassstrasse, Switzerland

Hill in Jaunpassstrasse, Switzerland

  24 km from Niesen


My wife and I were travelling along a winding alpine pass in central Switzerland, anxiously navigating through a terrible storm, in hopes of catching a rainbow. With my wife driving, and I eagerly looking out the passenger window hoping to find a photo in the dense fog. We found the storm had broken on the other side of the valley with a gigantic rainbow! “Faster! We’re gonna miss it”, I exclaimed while my wife drove on - clearly more focused on the rainbow than the driving conditions. We came to a stop along the road, but alas, had missed the rainbow. The view was still worth it.

travelers stories about Glacial landform in Jungfraujoch, Switzerland

Glacial landform in Jungfraujoch, Switzerland

  27 km from Niesen


Even though we were surrounded by snow, it felt warm. The sun reflected and bounced off the snow to cover us in warmth. At this elevation in Switzerland, you feel almost in the clouds, it’s surreal. And yet, it’s a simple train ride to the top, no climbing gear needed.

travelers stories about Mountain range in Grindelwald, Switzerland

Mountain range in Grindelwald, Switzerland

  30 km from Niesen


Had the opportunity to fly the drone around and snap some shots from above in Switzerland. I really love the scale the mountain towns can offer as they are surrounded by amazing peaks and ranges. The houses look so minuscule in comparison to the grand mountains.

Town in Grindelwald, Switzerland

  30 km from Niesen


We were wandering around Grindelwald aimlessly while we ran into this church. After looking around, I decided to pull the drone out and grab a few shots. The epicness of the Eigar, Jungfrau and Monch surrounding this church and town was amazing. I had never felt this much of a grand presence and feel blessed to have been able to experience this.

Hiking in Haslital, Switzerland on a sunny afternoon. Because it was too bright and the mountains in the back were almost washed out I decided to change the pictures to black and white and punch the foreground.

travelers stories about Mountain in Sidelhorn, Switzerland

Mountain in Sidelhorn, Switzerland

  51 km from Niesen


After an hour of hiking past the Grimselpass/Totensee, we set up our cameras at 2500m. Although we had arrived to that spot to see the blood moon rise right above the mountains, clouds on the horizon delayed when we got our first glimpse of red light. Still, the clouds that were there allowed for a colorful sunset. The dramatic lighting of the sun lasted for mere seconds. It is a reminder that sometimes, beautiful things only last for a short while so we should try our best to enjoy them while they last. Enjoy!

travelers stories about Ski resort in Simplon Pass, Switzerland

Ski resort in Simplon Pass, Switzerland

  53 km from Niesen


Between snow and sun, I had to catch the perfect moment when it wasn’t too windy. On this day at “Simplon-Pass” (sempione in italian) it was really awesome to fly over a lot of White, new snow… On the side of the roads were at least 2.5m of snowwalls. The only sad thing about this adventure was that I couldn’t drive myself up there in a powerful car - instead we took the bus but there were still very amazing views!

travelers stories about Forest in Haut de Cry, Switzerland

Forest in Haut de Cry, Switzerland

  57 km from Niesen


Going wild camping in the Swiss Alps is quite an adventure, especially when you need to find a flat spot which is large enough to receive your tent. But as in the Alps, slopes are dominating the scenery… This week-end I was lucky to find a nice place for my tent, but had some spectacular views on the surrounding mountains, like the one pictured here. Erosion, avalanches and rockfall dig deep canions in the slopes add to the character of this valley, following the “La Lizerne” river up to Les Diablerets.

Standing atop the Rhône Glacier over 3,600 meters (12,000 ft) up in the Swiss Alps. - The Rhône Glacier is one of the primary contributors to Lake Geneva and is the largest glacier in the Urner Alps. - It has retreated at a rate of 1300 meters during the last 120 years.

Landmark in Furka Pass, Switzerland

The Belvedere Hotel was built in 1882 and was a popular attraction for the adventure-minded for many decades. I’ve been obsessed with this spot since I first saw a photo and had to make the drive up! it was well worth it.
