Life in an isolated Swiss mountain cabin

This week we continue our Alpine adventures in the remote Swiss mountain cabin. We escape the crowds we have been experiencing in the last few weeks, opting to go for a random spot in Switzerland rather than the "must see locations". This turned out to be a brilliant decision as we have one of our best days of the whole trip. We explore a waterfall before heading for the hills and climbing high into the snowy peaks. That night we settle into our mountain cabin, enjoying the rustic charm of our simple and cozy accommodation.

Hello everyone! Thanks for watching again (especially if you're picking us over the football). This is our last video in our Alps series and i think it was our favourite!

American here, so no interest in "the football." But I would have picked this anyway. Beautiful scenery and great fun. I found myself wishing you guys had micro-spikes, though. It would be a bit easier, too, to do the snowier hikes in the mornings -- less slushy and potentially fewer post-holes while walking. But you guys are very intrepid. Just be careful out there.

[@joachimneumann7151]

No favorite, they are all awesome, thx guys 🥳 I am heading to follow the Tour de France tomorrow 🚲

[@robertburton.wandering.won9154]

The Swiss scenery is just amazing ! ...I know I say this after every one of your Alps videos, (that Norway is still the most beautiful country we have visited, but) we really must go to Switzerland soon ! Your drone shots of that waterfall were beautiful, but then when you got to the base...😯! The sunlight shining through the mist 🤯 !!! and you both looked SO happy!😁 Oh THAT view from the balcony 😍 And then THAT hike!!!! 🏔Wow! INCREDIBLE video!!! 😂

[@Travelwiththetwins]

I think the two of you are incredible.

[@marlarkin1090]

Forget the tourist stuff natures attractions are so much better

[@davidjones638]

Hi Tom and Izzy. What a beautiful episode and i have so mamy wonderful memories flooding back because, a very long time ago(!) when i was a student, i worked as a waiter in a hotel high in the Bernese Oberland! The scenery here and the Berghaus, waterfalls, snow was great to see and be reminded of a happy summer! Ps.. goodness knows how many portions of rosti i served that summer!!.thank you!!

[@edwarddrohan-kc2td]

Loving this series, these are the places I won't to go when I get my van built . Thank you the great inspiration 👏👏👏👏👏

[@katyjones4108]

Loving your adventures ❤

[@1dkappe]

You can find more remote valleys in the Austrian, Swiss and Slovenian alps and especially Süd Tirol that are gorgeous and less touristy.

[@LostInTransit]

yeah i would love to return and spend more time off the beaten track. We will have to return

[@1dkappe]

@@LostInTransit Try the Ridnauental in Süd Tirol. Sterzing is at the base of this narrow valley. Very lovely, steep and narrow. Great hikes. Moderate German speaking tourists. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIeaq2mLj7qXpdUsi=uoS3N4RJd1VWiNSG Stayed at a farm further up. Absolutely delicious vegetables, salads, etc. There was an area legend of a journeyman farm hand who was the devil’s ally. Every time he was up to no good, the priest of a small chapel in the valley would ring the bells to disperse his power. A friend of my mother’s and her husband had converted a farm to a house. They donated money to install an automated bell ringing mechanism in the chapel. The night before it was to be activated, a lightning bolt struck their house and set it aflame. Fortunately the damage was limited. Was it the devil’s journeyman showing his displeasure?

[@CRyan71]

I adore the mountain huts when hiking. So charming and atmospheric and mesmerising views all round. I must do a photo reel of views from bedroom windows that I've had.

[@garymillerlcs]

Great video. Filming is fantastic. Many thanks for sharing it with us all.

[@LostInTransit]

Our pleasure!

[@karalmilani2122]

blooody incredible 🤣😂🤣 , thank you for hiking in that panorama-tic scenery

[@mickcorbett6724]

Very enjoyable series. Izzy is such an accomplished cook, would love an episode about the food you eat on the road.

[@donstravelsandrants.]

Absolutely brilliant. Fantastically filmed. 😯👍😊💙🇮🇪🇨🇭

[@laurenandrich]

That waterfall was BEAUTIFUL! We've just left Switzerland so loved seeing what you guys got up to over the last few vlogs 😍

[@terryjacobs2536]

Spot on you 2 love birds! Useful using touristy places to get your bearings so to speak but off the beaten track is the way to go .. always have snuck a few "walks" in every holiday no matter where i have stayed. Switzerland is a magical place, wish I was there😢

[@-BEASTOR-]

Incredible!! 😂

[@lindaking1240]

That was incredible 😉

[@LostInTransit]

😂

[@DaveyPalmer1]

What a place to explore! That waterfall was out of this world and the views in the valley were incredible. The avalanches were a bit dodgy mind you but eerily spectacular at the same time. Fantastic 👍

[@lindashoemaker8940]

Good afternoon Tom and Izzy the place looks like a fairy tale Izzy is right wish I could see it thx for taking me along Swiss chalet perfect take care stay safe 😘🌸🌿☕️☕️🍺🍺

[@matts_hiking_adventures]

I love that waterfall, and I'm such a sucker for a really good one too 😍 you found a really good hidden gem 🙌 the excitement that you both had when you was there was awesome. And what an lovely video. its definitely is one my favourites out of the alps/swiss series 😁.

[@deslyons1616]

Hi Izzy and Tom greatings from Dublin. Realy enjoy your videos. Your great at finding really interesting places. You should try Slovenia some time. Looking forward to seeing your next adventure.

[@LostInTransit]

Yeah I would love to visit Slovenia, it looks amazing. Will have to go one day, I also want to go to Montenegro so could maybe do both in one trip

[@pamelaselway6669]

We first found separate duvets in Germany years ago and went home and did the same. So much better you can have different togs and throw your duvet off if you get too hot. Great video, well photographed. I think it would be so much easier if we did have wooden houses in UK. Such a pity.

[@johndodd4088]

loving the series guys, I was hiking up Diamond hill in Connemara last week and laughed when I came to the first right hand bend where Izzy tackled her first sandwich before the climb even started, Keep living the dream...and I think Izzy is hilarious with a beer or two🤣 Have a safe one til next time 👌

[@LostInTransit]

Haha, I hen you realise how soon it was 😂

[@bordercolliepupopvoedenont924]

I love this video. I'm really curious where you parked and where that amazing waterfall was..... Indeed it looked like something out of Tolkien. I prefere the same non toerist places too. Those trees looked amazing too❤❤❤ And up in the mountains.....wowwww. That's why Switserland is my favorite country. Thank you for sharing this gem of a cabine in the mountains. Bay Ingrid

Right! Who farted during your morning chat in the cabin! Izzy is hilarious when drunk.

[@thelifeofreillytravels]

Hey guys! We're heading to Switzerland in a van in September, looking for recommendations for park-ups, where was this place you parked & how did you find it? Thanks!😊

[@thebazgaz]

I heard there has been some big flash floods around Zermatt in the last few days. Hope you guys are ok?

[@user-nu5ku8rr6m]

Tis an ink-readable place - unless it's (a road sign) in Swiss, of course - and if so, then it may take a while for the penny to drop eh...

[@1dkappe]

“Berg” is the German word for Mountain. Hard for English speakers to pronounce. There are a number of places to see the Matterhorn. You can even see it from Italy, though the view isn’t as good as on the Swiss side.

[@BendsMusic]

Agreed 👍Saltzberg in Austria simply translated means Salt mountain.. and yes I know they're in Switzerland so Jungfrau the mountain translated= a virgin woman 🤣😎👍

[@borgjako]

ngl, drunk Izzy is pretty damn funny!

Hi guys, what part of Switzerland were you in when you stayed in the hostel?

[@LostInTransit]

The area is known as Lenk (I think)

[@Pointblank88]

Where in Switzerland guys? I used to live there!

[@LostInTransit]

I think the area was called Lenk
