Kandersteg is a beautiful Swiss town located amidst the heart of the Bernese Alps. It is a prime location for skiing in the winter and hiking/biking in the summer.

As soon as I get the chance, I'll post more photos and tips. This is an incredible town, and I'd love to share my experience with you all.
