Situated at 1,411 metres in the Valais Canton, Leukerbad is a highly popular ski resort and the largest thermal spa town in Switzerland. During the summer months, it is a rather glorious hiking destination, and is known globally for its rather terrifying Via ferrata, consisting of ropes, metal pegs and ladders, scaling the vertical rock faces of the surrounding mountains, which are lofty enough to tests even the toughest of dispositions. These photographs are a gentle documentation of the town and its surrounding landscapes, including the popular hike to the Gemmi Pass.
