Story

Together with a group of dedicated people I will venture out on a challenging 7-hours hike high up in the Swiss Alps covering two high peaks, a pass and a total distance of 11 km.

Every step and every raised pound will help the Hospice team care for their patients.

In my role of the hospice manager for the past 20 years, I have been closely involved in establishing the Hospice from the early days to become the unique place of care it is today. For the Two Peaks Challenge I will draw on my experience from my mountaineering years and I will guide this group of enthusiastic hikers over the two peaks near Somaskanda Ashram. Thank you for your supporting the hospice!

°°°°

Zusammen mit einer Gruppe engagierter Menschen werde ich mich auf eine anspruchsvolle 7-stündige Wanderung hoch oben in den Schweizer Alpen begeben, die zwei hohe Gipfel, einen Pass und eine Gesamtstrecke von 11 km umfasst.

Jeder Schritt und jedes gesammelte Pfund oder Franken wird dem Hospice-Team bei der Betreuung seiner Patienten helfen.

In meiner Funktion als Leiter des Hospices war ich in den letzten 20 Jahren eng daran beteiligt, das Hospice von den Anfängen an zu dem einzigartigen Ort der Betreuung zu machen, der es heute ist. Bei der Two Peaks Challenge werde ich auf die Erfahrung aus meinen Jahren als Bergsteiger zurückgreifen und diese Gruppe begeisterter Wanderer über die beiden Gipfel in der Nähe des Somaskanda Ashram führen. Danke für eure Unterstützung des Hospices!
