High Altitude

From Leukerbad to the Lammenhütte and Back

I have gone up to Leukerbad at least three times for the via ferrata and this could have been the fourth or fifth time that I do it. I chose not to do it. During the pandemic I spent a lot of time hiking, with little to no exposure to heights. As a result of this I lost the habit of being high up. I realised this when I was just three or four meters up on a sea defense in Javea/Xabia and felt afraid of the height I was at.
