Last Sunday we went on a 5 hour hike near Neuchatel. The place we wanted to see is called Creux du Van and is a spectacular vista.

This is a photo of our hiking group in front of the creux du van. Taken by Dweep, our excellent organiser.

I got the chance to try out Paragliding as part of a hiking meetup. It was fun, great people and we could run down a grassy slope with a glider strapped to our back. There wasn’t much getting off the ground but still I got an idea of what the starting is all about.

Gettin the glider up into the air.

This is me starting to run.
