Switzerland is blessed with water. And despite numerous buildings, it still exists, the almost untouched water landscapes, the natural paradises, the water pearls that must be protected because they have become so precious. The book presents some of the most beautiful waters and recommends attractive excursions. For example at the Doubs, which gushes merrily over stones between shady banks. In contrast, the Reuss flows almost majestically with its large volume of water. The Fiume Galnegia in Ticino, which falls thunderously down a rock step, or the Orbe, whose roar is intensified many times in its narrow gorge by the rock walls, are completely different. The Val Carciusa, on the other hand, radiates deep tranquillity and is criss-crossed by meandering waters. It can be hiked from San Bernadino or Nufenen. These and many other impressive landscapes with unspoilt nature, rare plants and a wide variety of wildlife.
