It started in a comparatively quiet Einsiedeln (having visited previously at Christmas, the difference was obvious), and quickly moved out of town and along the valley. The whole route was completely green and full of the signs of spring, which a few weeks ago would not have been the case. This part of Jakobsweg is a very pleasant walk, going past the Benedictine Convent at Au, across farmland and pasture, through Trachslau and winding gently upwards until you get to Alpthal. The church in this village is really worth a visit, but from then on the path winds steeply upwards.
