Seljalandfoss is amazingly beautiful and best in evening sun, a little before sunset: The day tours already left for the drive back home, so you’re more or less alone. The setting sun dips the falling water spray, the cliffs and the grass into golden light. Not to mention the rainbow effects when you’re going behind […]

The hike on the south-west side of the water is nice, in the upper part at times a little bit […]

Saint Beatus Caves lie high above the northeastern shore of Lake Thun near Interlaken on the Niederhorn Massif. The subterranean river that flows through the caves makes a dramatic exit through the cave mouths falling in a series of about five cascades down to the lake below.
