Oct 24 - Santa Maria, Switzerland


Awoke and left about 9 am. Hard cycling immediately. Had breakfast about 10 am when the sun had chased away most of the cold. Difficult cycling all day. Something's wrong with the back wheel. It's too difficult to move. Arrived in Santa Maria, beautiful Switzerland at 4 pm. Checked in at the old farmhouse youth hostel. Family of walkers from Lausanne joined me at the hostel. Invited me for dinner of soup, tea and sandwiches. Wrote and retired in the chilly hostel.

Hostel 2.80 Swiss Francs
Elevation 1,260 m
Mileage: Merano to Santa Maria 70 km
