The Swiss Challenge

The Arrival 

We all arrived in the Bern Train station all pumped and motivated!!!! Then we travelled as a group to a House in Moosseedorf from a Youth Organisation called Infoklick.ch and got aquainted with each other by playing small games. Then in the next day we all did an awesome 45km bike ride from Murten to Biel…everyone was quite tired after that. In Biel we stayed in a Scouts House and planned our Journey for the next 7 days…we had to organize three places for three nights to sleep ourselves somewhere and we also had to do our challenges during the seven days.

The Swiss Challenge:

Day 1

On the first day we only travelled to our sleeping destination in Puideux. We slept in a beautiful Kloster called Cres Berard. To waste a bit of time we visited Lausanne and enjoyed the nice weather.

Day 2

On the second day we travelled to Crans Montana and sang the swiss national anthem in french infront of  a lake. Then we travelled to Luzern to meet up with the other groups. And we all stayed together in a Youth Hostlel.

Day 3

We travelled tthe next day from Luzern to Kaiseraugst an took a few pictures there. Then we went to Basel and enjoyed the warm weather and the town. After that we travelled to Hölstein to stay at a participants relatives place for the night.

Day 4

We headed back to Luzern and travelled by boat to Weggis to and back. Then we went directly to our next acomodation in Zürich in a WG of a camp leader. We met up with her and we played a few games together and in the afternoon we did a small tour of Zürich.

On the 1st of August we started our day with a nice snack….on of the students in the Wg fried us all one worm and we ate them together. We all thought it tasted like Popcorn. We headed to Kreuzlingen in the afternoon and met up with the other groups and stayed in a tourist camping house by the lake.
