7.7km, 410m ascent, 1h50m, 7°C
A nice hike up the Albishorn on a damp, drippy Spring morning. The hiking group did the Albishorn last September but from the west (Lake Zug) side. This hike ascended from the east (Lake Zürich) side. Once again the weather didn’t make for very good views.

Route map:

This is supposed to be a view of Lake Zürich, but clouds. Still a nice hike up the Albishorn on a damp, drippy Spring morning: 7.7km, 410m ascent, 1h50m, 7°C.

Beautiful hike up the Zugerberg this morning. The remnants of last Thursday’s snow made for a slushy and muddy ascent: 10.7km, 470m ascent, 2h50m, 7°C.
