World Photography Day - 19. August (second choice)

View from the Säntis (2'502 m) to the southsouthwest toward Tödi (3'613 m) in the back and 3 peaks of the 7 Churfirsten in the foreground.

The Säntis is the highest mountain in the Alpstein range (eastern Switzerland). Due to the Alpstein's exposed location to the north, the mountain is a landmark visible from afar. For example, there are houses in the Black Forest and the Swabian Alb named Säntisblick. The summit of Säntis offers a view of six countries: Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Italy, and France.

Happy Bench Monday !

The highest lighthouse in Europe on the Oberalp Pass.
The lighthouse on the Oberalp Pass (2'044 m / 6,700 ft) is located near the source of the Rhine. The tower was built as a symbol of the connection between the beginning and end of the Rhine. The tower is a copy of a real lighthouse that once stood at the mouth of the Rhine in Rotterdam.
It is the highest lighthouse in Europe. And after the lighthouse in Puno on Lake Titicaca on the border between Peru and Bolivia (3'800 m above sea level), it is even the second highest lighthouse in the world! :-)

Water - the element of life.
The four rivers Rhine, Reuss, Ticino and Rhone rise in the Gotthard massif in Switzerland and ultimately flow into three different seas:
- The Rhine flows into the North Sea.
- The Reuss flows into the Aare -> Rhine -> North Sea.
- The Ticino flows into the Po -> Adriatic Sea.
- The Rhone flows into the Mediterranean.
The 90-kilometre "Four Springs Trail" leads to the sources of these four rivers and can be covered in one-day stages or in a continuous five-day hike. The trail allows you to discover unique landscapes and raises awareness of the importance of water as a valuable resource.
The "Four Springs Trail Foundation" was set up to realize and manage the trail.

Der Giessengletscher

Der Giessengletscher ist einer von mehreren Gletschern an der Nordwestflanke der Jungfrau (4'158 m).
Er beginnt am Nordhang der Jungfrau auf einer Höhe von etwas über 3'600 m und fliesst nach Nordwesten. Die Gletscherzunge liegt auf 2'500 m.
Westlich angrenzend befindet sich der kleinere Silberhorngletscher. Östlich ist er hinter dem Schneehoren über den Chielouwenengletscher mit dem Guggigletscher verbunden.
Das Schmelzwasser des Giessengletschers fliesst in die Weisse Lütschine, dann in die Lütschine, in die Aare und schliesslich in den Rhein.
