DB Family Europe Grand Tour 22

I've had some great runs on this trip, but this was without a doubt the most spectacular. I took the gondolas up to the Schwarzsee station at 8,474 feet. Then I followed the trail up towards Trockener Steg, a "minor prominence" at 9,642 feet, in the area between the Matterhorn and the Breithorn. We had visited Trockener Steg yesterday by gondola and there were several beautiful lakes at the foot of a glacier.

I didn't have enough time to make it all the way up, so I did an out and back instead. I ran where I could but most of the first mile was a hike up a steep incline. At altitude it was a great workout.

The family met me back at Schwarzsee and I got some extra running in with Eowyn. Overall it was a fantastic experience and I hope to come back someday for more hiking and trail running. - SeanOkumaya devam et
