How beautiful! Geneva has been on my bucket list for a while, but I never thought about hiking there. Now I’ll definitely have to head to some of these 🙂
What great recommendations! We are hoping to get to WI sometime this year and will certainly keep these in mind. Thanks!
What a gorgeous place – my mad spaniel would absolutely love it here! A good tip though about the bees along the trails 🙂
