  • Mittelegi

    Leaving life’s everyday troubles under a sea of clouds and enjoying the feeling of unlimited freedom. Moments like these inspire me to move on to new horizons.

  • Caucasus

    After rain there’s sun. Fortunately, the saying also applies in 5000 meters of altitude at the Russian border to Georgia.

  • Secrets

    In the course of time melting glaciers might uncover some of their secrets. On this glacier for instance, we found an aircraft wreck of a Russian bomber from the Second World War, which on January 31st, 1943 lost its orientation in foggy weather at night.

  • Portaledge

    Stefan Siegrist makes himself comfortable in the Eiger North Face. Spending the night in a Portaledge 1000 meters above the Wandfuss might even hold more potential of excitement than most four-star hotels.

  • Khumbu, Nepal

    To me full moon nights belong to the most beautiful parts of nature. Just like this special night in Namche Bazar in the heart of Nepal that seems to revitalize the ancient myths.

  • Kathmandu

    In Nepal religion still plays a vital part while there is no division between secular and religious matters within the daily routine. This quite different world-view calls some of our “western made problems” into question.

  • Khumbu

    A day’s march before reaching the Everest base camp one finds himself surrounded by a variety of vast seven thousanders which enormous dimensions can only be grasped by those that enter this special environment on foot.

  • The Jungfrau

    As fast as the railway can reach the icy heights of the Jungfraujoch, untouched areas of the mountain are still possible to be discovered only shortly after.

  • Clariden

    The intensive red colour at sunrise did not mean well promises for the day. But who cares in the light of such moments

  • Gleckstein cabin

    At dusk, while others are sharing stories inside the cabin, I often prefer to take a few steps outside. I enjoy these moments of peace and satisfaction.

  • Mittelegi cabin

    On the ascent to the Eiger the Mittelegihütte almost appears like an aerie making Corinne sometimes rather feel like a pilot than a cabin owner.
