It is reputed for hospitality and remoteness, in the evening there is no electricity here..\nWe will hike through this stunning valley full of waterfalls and soak in gorgeous views before returning to the civilization. (sorry…)\n\nOne of the things that I love the most about the hut to hut trekking is that moment when, after long day outside, hiking, soaking it all in and sometimes going through challenging terrains, once of the sudden, you arrive to the mountain hut. Your shelter for the night, your home – where everyone is welcome, no matter your status, physical condition and level of tiredness .’                               \n Ruta, Be Outside Coaching\n\nWhat to look forward to?\n• Breathtaking views\n• Hiking like the Swiss Do or even better…\n• Nature Connection Practices\n• Free time for personal reflection/relaxation\n• Mindfulness in the Mountains\n• Stretching sessions after hiking\n• Intimate experience: this trek is limited to 8 participants max\n\nExtras:\n• Night Hiking and Milky Way Observation\n• Cow bell & marmotte concert 😊\n• Inspiring & Empowering group spirit\n \n \n\nI’d sit for hours watching the birds or squirrels, or looking into the faces of flowers. When I discovered a new plant, I sat beside it for a minute or a day, to make its acquaintance and try to hear what it had to tell me.’ John Muir, My Life with Nature\n\n\nWe will stay in an authentic and very local mountain house where traditions are still alive. Just staying here is already an experience that is difficult to find in nowadays….\n\n Details about the place where we will stay\n\n150 years old Historical Mountain Hotel in the middle of the mountain\n\n\nObersteinberg has been in the same family for generations and is run by two sisters, Dori and Manuela von Allmen.\nGazing across the valley from the hotel you’ll have spectacular views of hanging glaciers perched above waterfalls that cascade down the valley walls.\nOf all the waterfalls, Schmadribachfall is the showstopper with a its impressive height  and immensity. This waterfall has been captured on canvas by noted landscape artists going back to the 1820s, but due to its remote location, more people have seen the paintings than have actually seen the falls.\nObersteinberg is set within a protected area, where many alpine species that were once hunted to near extinction are now making a welcome comeback.
