** Monastery Hike & Spa!! **
Sunday, April 22nd, 2018 @ 10:30
St Maurice not, Lausanne
PLEASE NOTE NEW MEETING PLACE AND TIME!!
Ever wanted to know more about the 1500 year-history of St Maurice and surrounding mountains?
Ever wanted to visit the Monastery camouflaged in the rocks above St Maurice?
Then hike for approx 3 hours in the hills above the town?
And of course, all good hikes must end with a spa!
I've only ever done this once before, but we can explore St Maurice, climb up to the Monastery (a LOT of steps), then follow the Trail of the Chapelles in the hills above the town.
Total height difference approx 350 metres (this doesn't include the steps up and down from the monastery!).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE ONE AND ONLY MEETING PLACE:
THE KIOSK at the front of St Maurice Gare (open for drinks and those who've forgotten their lunch!!)
10h30.
There is ample parking at the CFF Gare car park at CHF1 per hour. We should be back in 4 hours, but I would take CHF5 parking, just in case.
Trains Arrive 10h26 at St Maurice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WHAT TO BRING:
Swimming Stuff and money/credit card for the baths
Appropriate Clothing and Good Walking/Hiking Boots
Picnic & Water
Something to share
Something to sit on (lunch will be dejeuner sur l'herbe!)
Hopefully, sun glasses
Your lovely smile
