Hiking is Swiss peoples’ favourite summer activity. I recently hiked up the beautiful Säntis from Wasserauen, along the Seealpsee. Have a look at my picture: the antenna in the back is my destination. Impressive, huh? More info about this hike on the following link.
I am a big VTT enthusiast (mountain bike - by the way, I like going up more than going down). In this picture, my sister, who also takes care of the FAIRTIQ’s customer service, and I are mountain biking in the Alps in the canton of Fribourg. Around the majestic mountain called "Moléson": a gorgeous place. However, my number one VTT destination is Le Jura, especially La Vallée de Joux. I usually take the train to Le Pont and then bike up to Le Mont Tendre. My reward: a delicious fondue in the “Buvettes d’Alpage”.
Aare you ready? The Aare is the favourite playground of all natives of Bern. Did you know that FAIRTIQ is also from Bern? We often go for a quick Aare-Swim at the Marzili over lunch. So thrilling to swim around the Parliament Building.Jeremy, our Head of Operations, loves boating down the Aare from Thun to Bern. After a short train hop, he and his friends take their inflatable boat and enjoy the way down to Bern… As quickly as possible, but as slowly as necessary!
Last week, a paraglider friend told me:“When I go flying, I always know it starts, but I never know where I will land. Thanks to FAIRTIQ, I don’t have to worry about it: I always find a bus that brings me back to my departure point.“
I never tried paragliding… I am a bit scared. Last year, I received an email from a loyal FAIRTIQ customer, Mathieu Arlettaz, who owns a paragliding school. He tried to convince me to try… I’ll consider. He also is a photographer and sent me some beautiful shots of his flight. Mind-blowing, right?
I am among those who believe that there is no season for fondue. While I love having a Fondue Moitié-Moitié in the mountain Buvettes d’Alpage, I also highly recommend having it at La Plage de Lutry by the lake, on a warm summer night (make sure to try their Chocolate Moelleux as well!).
