Last minute. This afternoon: Hike Mayen and or VF Picture
Sunday, July 8th, 2012 @ 00:00
Leysin, Lausanne
 
This is a last minute activity.

- If you had your mind and muscles ready for a hike and VF and you felt sad about Julian's VF event being cancelled due to bad weather, this is your opportunity :)

- If you just happen to read this and are ready for action this afternoon... read on :)

Please note that the weather in Leysin is slightly better, and is meant to be better this afternoon. But have not managed to bribe the weather man. So things might change.

Hike to Tour de Mayen and/or Via Ferrata Plan de Praz (Leysin).


The idea is to hike first from Leysin (1380) to Refuge de Mayen La Riondaz (1850) and then (if you are fit enough and weather lets us) to Tour de Mayen (2326).
From there we will go down to Leysin and possibly (if you have equipment, you are fit enough and weather lets us) approach the VF

Please bring: hiking shoes, plenty of water, food. Please bring your VF equipment or rent it before the RDV if you would like to do the via ferrata (optional).

In this short ferrata we have a monkey bridge, footbridges, ladders... and plenty of opportunities to burn energy and stress. It is a difficult ferrata, but there are many exit ways so if you¥ve never done a ferrata before, but you are fit, you should try.


How to come to Leysin by train:
Lausanne 11:20 - Aigle 11:50
Aigle 11:56 - Leysin Feydey 12:23

PLEASE MIND THE ENVIRONMENT. There is no need to drive on your own. Take the trains above or contact others to carpool. It's part of the social experience :)

Please add a message when you join the event to let us know:
- if you offer or need a ride and your preferred meeting point.
If you need a ride you should contact drivers directly.
- your experience hiking and doing Via Ferrate or climbing. This is very important as there is a maximum of 4 beginners

Do not email me unless it is necessary please. Just leave your details as per above in the forum. Thank you.
