We woke up in this nice z'Graggen guesthouse... very peaceful and quite Brysti...
Sky was cloudy and mountains were covered by fog. Well thats normal so early in the morning - it was 6 o'clock in the morning.
Later blue sky appeared and Sun started to smile kindly. Whole day was beautiful weather.
We had some breakfast later on - bread, cheese, some fruits with mysli and yougurt... We were the only guests on that day, and it was very strange indeed that somebody serves just us. I would feel much more better, if I just could do everything myself. :)
We had a few words chat with this nice guy, who was a host, asked him if many people pass by. He told, that when weather is nice then path can be crowded. While eating breakfast we saw already few people passing by towards Surenenpass.
We packed our stuff and somewhere at 9:20 - 9:30 we started our 21 km way towards Engelberg through Surenenpasse (2 291 m).
The path was easy to walk, weather was fine, we could finally enjoy scenery on every step. On the way we met quite a lot of hikers. It made me think for a moment about my personal preferences: good weather and a lot of people around or bad weather and peaceful solitude? (i am bit into last option :) )
While approaching Surenenpasse Wolf found one most beautiful place - not far away from the pass itself.
One small pond...
without single wave..
surrounded by hills, covered with fresh, green grass..
and mountains on the background, covered with snow here and there...
deepest blue sky...
total silence...
Wolf sat peacefully near the pond, something resembling a smile appeared on his face..
and I, put my backpack aside, and run on the hills enjoying this complete inner freedom..
After some climbing up we found ourselves in the middle of something eternal.
magnicifent. peacefully eternal scenery.
We spend sometime up there and started our way down towards Engelberg.
On the way down we stopped at BlackAlp for a banana milkshake for Wolf and vanilla milkshake for me. But milk tasted extremely strange for me, as i did not drunk any milk for a year or so.. so my vanilla shake was destroyed by Wolf.. :)
We walked, talked, kept silence, admiring the scenery, met many cows, eating peacefully their grass, met other hikers...
On the way we made small picnic near the mountain river.. Ate few sandwiches with tomatoes and cucmbers..
We arrived to Engelberg somewhere at 5 o'clock, looked for a cheaper place to stay, but have not found anyting again.. So we ended up in a place what was bit too much for our budget.. So will see if will need to sleep under the bridges in the end of the trek.. :)
Engelberg os nice neat place with a lot of tourists from India.. I wonder what draws them there. I would go anytime to India to stay there.. :)
