Description
Hiking through the alpine region of southern Switzerland, in the Lauterbrunnen Valley between Lauterbrunnen and Gimmelwald via Murren, the scenery one is surrounded with is some of the most breathtaking in the world. This particular barn was spoilt with one of the best views in the valley, a semi-permanent sentinel to the comings and goings within the valley.
Typical to traditional Swiss smaller holding farm practices these small barns are scattered across the countryside. These barns vary in size but are usually typical in architectural design. They perform a range of functions including storage of wood as it dries, storage of hay and other feed, storage of livestock during harsh weather, and storage of tools and equipment.
