LENKtastic II - 4th day


Hiking:


The trip of the Hiking group was about 5 hours long and took them to a place called “The Seven Fountains of the Simmental”. The weather was great, there was plenty of sun all day and luckily no one got sunburned. The group stopped at an impressive waterfall for lunch and some of them had a quick bath in the river while the others were taking a short nap. Mario and Ahmed brought their speakers so everyone could listen to music while hiking. One of the hikers was shocked to discover that the cow fences are electric.  The hike was the perfect way to spend the day but the rooftops of Lenk were a welcome sight for the footsore campers.




Biking:


The biking group started their trip with a really easy route on flat land after which they spent two hours riding up a steep mountain. On the way up they took a shower in the waterfall. Eventually they reached the “Seven Fountains” where they took lunch and ran into the hiking group. The bikers continued their journey up another mountain where they rested before starting their way down. While going downhill the group was submitted to four near death experiences, where bikers were sent tipping off the path. After this terrifying ordeal they descended the mountain at full speed in just 30 minutes arriving home intact.
