Solo hiking and wildcamping in Switzerland | Via Alpina | 170 KM | 9 Days

[@silversurfer5400]

Beautiful video Peter Just as a side note. It is actually forbidden in Switzerland to camp lower than the treeline (in between trees) as this disrupts wildlife seeking protection between the trees. Please make sure to respect these rules and guidelines in order to protect what you're obviously enjoying. Also there are maps and mobile phone apps to display wildlife habitats which are another area where it is not allowed to camp. Sorry ... not trying to be a smart ares here but just trying to educate other people interested in a similar hike

[@ZOELOEss]

No one cares man, how does this disturb the wildlife? Humans are also animals after all

[@fuglbird]

Yes, he may be ruining it for the rest of us. I hope he will educate himself before he visits the next time.

[@realgreywolfe2517]

Hi, sorry because I know this was a while ago, but i was thinking of doing something similar (above the treeline of course) and was wondering if you remembered the name of those apps? It would be great to help my planning. Thanks!

[@wildsamu9796]

@@realgreywolfe2517 Hey, writing this in case you still need it. I use Swisstopo, the app is made by the swiss government and is super well made. You will find all official (marked red-white-red and blue-white-blue) trails, trail closures, shooting range bulletins, nature reserves and a ton of other useful information. You can also trace routes and save maps for offline use. While it is true that here wild camping below the treeline is not permitted, as long as you are respectful of wildlife, people and nature in general and follow no-trace ethics, no one should bother you. Plenty of swiss people do it on the regular. There is also a vast network of campsites and mountain huts if you wish to usee them. I am not condoning breaking the rules, so use your better judgment according to the situation. Hope this was helpful, enjoy your stay in our beautiful country.

Cool video, on one of the most iconic long distance trails in Switzerland !

[@joeblack-travelvlog]

Great video, thank you for sharing.

[@thelovelounge_]

This is literally the most perfect content ive ever seen. Perfect vibes, directions and location.

[@thugganoni13boulet]

Watched tons of hiking videos and you are by far, with only one video and no comments, the best of anything I’ve ever watched. Thank you so much! I don’t know why there isn’t much more but for any reasons, thank you!!!! ❤❤❤

[@Hamza-bb8tg]

Amazing content Peter. You have shared the perfect video and the perfect itinerary of an ideal trip to detoxify the fast paced life into a calming connection with nature and your Self. Keep making content like this, I'm pretty sure there are many like you who feel at home in nature. As for myself, I've felt the urge, after watching this video, to go hike in the forest till i feel myself again. I'll be looking forward to follow this itinerary, hopefully in coming years. Again, thanks for sharing this ♥️

[@justinpeter2584]

That is one beautiful corner of the world! Thanks for sharing. Well done.

I have seen many vedios of hikers but none is like this one, I loved the way you focused on the sceneries and landscapes than pointing the camera to your face, you really drove me with those distancing sight and beauty, also the background music is suiting perfectly That nature. Can tell the music source? Switzerland is heaven on earth.

[@peterkisteman]

Thank you! I appreciate that :) The music I've used in this video is from Artlist.io. You can find the specific songs and artists in the description.

[@TarikBelasri]

Hello Peter ! I did bits of Via Alpina in my time like Mürren to Kandersteg last year, Gstaad to l'Etivaz this month for instance plus other bits in past years, and I really want to congratulate you on the brilliant editing of your video which really conveys the extraordinary sensations one can have doing such a beautiful tour - wishing you many other great adventures ! take care now

[@alexanderblack8323]
