Did you know that Switzerland has around 65'000 kilometres of hiking trails? That's about 1.5 times the circumference of the earth! A huge number of municipalities and volunteer organisations maintain the hiking trails and offer hikes in all the cantons.
Our Special New Year's Eve Show!
On the last day of 2013, The English Show team bring you a special New Year's Eve Show! It's our "lite" version, with more music than ever, each song hand-picked by the team as their track of the year.
Nic Oatridge came to tell us about Engelberg. Engelberg is the easiest of the great Swiss resorts to get to from Luzern by road or rail along the beautiful Engelberg valley. The main ski and snowboard area off Titlis has some fabulous slopes and impressive off-piste, including the Laub run, and pretty much everywhere apart from the gentle blue runs at Gershnialp can be accessed without using surface lifts.
PLUS we had most of the regular features, like the Over The Borders Cultural Calender and Basel's Cultural Calender with tips on what's happening in the first week of January!
The English Show team - Kiwi Jon, Ciaran, Anna, Jake, Andrew, Joel, Georgia, Sue, Rob and Nic - all thank you for tuning into our show this year. Our first show of 2014 will be beamed out of the Radio X studios live on Tuesday, 7th of January!
Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
