This post will combine two topics: evening walks and riding up the hill.

We prefer a leisurely stroll after dinner to an uphill climb. On several occasions, we’ve ridden on the Dolderbahn, a cogwheel train that whisks you up to the very posh 5-star Dolder Grand Hotel in six minutes.

We walk around the front of the hotel

then look at this view across Lake Zürich.

From here it’s about a 25-minute walk back to our apartment. Now that the sun is setting at 9:00, I’m not out and about to take sunset photos.
