Crossing Switzerland on Foot
|
 |
"This was not originally
an objective but when my Father died in 1993, it occurred to me that I
should get some things finished. By that time, I had done about 60% of
the trip in bits and pieces over the years and only three more trips were
needed to complete it. It took 22 years to do 22 days walking but some
of those were half days and it would take four weeks to reproduce it, with
a sensible scattering of rest days. It is not Kev Reynolds 'Alpine Passes
Tour' although it co-incides in many places, nor is it necessarily the
'best' tour. This account is made up of slightly edited diary entries and
excerpts from notes from before I kept a diary. I have included notes of
other parts of the individual trips in italics to show the context of the
stages in the tour. Most of it was done alone and I have indicated where
I was accompanied. But every inch was on foot."
In
the very informative site of Ken's Homepage, http://www.art-science.com/Ken/Alpine/XSwiss/index.html,
