Fenced Off Ridge
I've included this photo in my stream just to give you some idea of the Fellhorn ridge hike. The fence isn't too nice, but when you're walking the trail, you are very happy it's there, as there is a precipice behind it. At the same time this photo shows you that it isn't all very steep: we came from the top station of the Kanzelwand cable car - that is the white building on the ridge to the right (in the distance) - and there is a broad, winding path that first descends before you reach the ridge. This photo was taken from the top station of another cable car coming from the Germany: the Fellhornbahn (this station is not visible). A further climb of a mere 70 metres brought us to the top of the Fellhorn (2038 m). That was only the start of our hike.
Happy Fence Friday!
