Day 1 – The Journey Begins


Today, the first stage of the Walk of Peace from Einsiedeln Abbey to Schloss Hohenfels began.


With open hearts and a shared intention for peace, the walkers set out together on their journey.

The first day brought beautiful landscapes, quiet moments and the joy of walking side by side.


Every step is more than a distance travelled –

it is a gentle reminder that peace grows

when we choose to walk it together.

Day 2 – Growing Together


The second day of the Walk of Peace brought new companions to the journey.


With every person who joins, the shared intention of peace becomes a little stronger. Along the Way of St. James, every step is an invitation to walk together, to connect and to carry peace into the world.


The journey continues – with open hearts, new encounters and growing community.

Day 3 – Signs Along the Way


The third day of the Walk of Peace

continued through the beautiful

Swiss countryside.


Today, nature surprised the walkers with

a remarkable sight

as many birds of prey circled above them.


It became one of those quiet moments

that reminds us how deeply connected

we are to the world around us.


Every day brings new encounters,

unexpected gifts and fresh inspiration

along the journey.

Day 4 –Every Climb

Has Its Reward


Today’s stage was the most challenging so far,

leading the walkers over the HΓΆrnli

and on to Fischingen Monastery.


The steep ascent required endurance,

but the reward was unforgettable:

breathtaking views, peaceful encounters with nature and a deep sense of gratitude.


Along the way, the walkers met llamas and roe deer, reminding us once again

that every journey brings

unexpected gifts to those

who keep walking.

Day 5 –

Gratitude Beyond the Journey


Sometimes a journey changes

in ways we never expect.


After spending the night at

Fischingen Monastery,

the group continued their Walk of Peace. 


Due to an allergic reaction after an insect sting, 

Anna had to end her journey earlier than planned. 


Thankfully, she received immediate medical care and is now recovering well.


Although Anna’s walk came to an unexpected end, the memories remain:

peaceful landscapes, 

meaningful encounters, shared conversations 

and countless moments of gratitude.


The Walk of Peace continues

with the remaining pilgrims, 

carrying forward the same spirit of hope, friendship and peace.


We wish Anna a full and speedy recovery 

and thank her for sharing so many 

beautiful moments along her journey.


πŸ•ŠοΈEvery step leaves a trace.

Every shared moment continues the journey.

Day 6 –

Every Step Brings Us Closer


Today the pilgrims continued their Walk of Peace through forests,

meadows and picturesque villages,

following the signs that slowly lead them towards Hohenfels.


Along the way, they discovered small gestures of kindness:

a welcoming bench with soft cushions, fresh drinking water and quiet places to rest.

After visiting St. Martin’s Chapel,

the peaceful castle garden offered welcome shade before the day ended

with a refreshing swim in Lake Constance.


With each shared step,

the destination comes a little closerβ€”

not only on the map, but also in the hearts of those walking together.


πŸ•ŠοΈ Peace grows one step, one encounter and one shared moment at a time.

Day 7 –

Arrival at Schloss Hohenfels


After days of walking together, the pilgrims arrived safely at Schloss Hohenfels.


The journey led through peaceful forests, open landscapes and places of quiet reflection. Every stage brought new encounters, shared experiences and moments of gratitude.


A heartfelt thank you to everyone who walked, supported and accompanied this Walk of Peaceβ€”whether on the path itself or in spirit.


The destination has been reached, but the journey of peace continues.


πŸ•ŠοΈ Peace is not the end of the road. It is the way we continue walking together.

Every evening at 6:00 p.m.,

the bells of Schloss Hohenfels invite everyone to walk

together to the chapel.


As the bells begin to ring,

the participants leave the hall and make their way together towards the chapel.


There, Rudolf Steiner’s β€œLord’s Prayer”

marks the beginning of a shared moment of reflection,

silence and community.


This video accompanies that journeyβ€”

from leaving the hall, through the ringing of the bells,

to prayer and shared singing in the chapel.

of the Walk of Peace Gatheringβ€”

as it moves gently through the forest.

A quiet reminder that peace walks with every step. πŸ•ŠοΈ

Day 1 – The Journey Begins

Nature welcomed the walkers with generous gifts of fruit, refreshing shade and beautiful landscapes along the way.


Meaningful encounters with experienced pilgrims, local vendors and their host made the day even richer.

Shalom Along the Way


Erika’s voice accompanies the Peace Flag once again.


β€œShalom – I am in peace.

Shalom – Peace is within me.”


A gentle song that carries peace through the forest and reminds us that every step begins within. πŸ•ŠοΈ

Day 2– Nature, Encounters

and Gratitude


Today, the walkers continued their journey from Fischingen Monastery, crossing the HΓΆrnli and reaching Steg.


Along the way, they discovered wild herbs, colourful insects and felt blessed by the kites circling gracefully above them.


The breathtaking view from the summit and a spontaneous meeting with Birgitta, Pierre and their granddaughter became special gifts of the day.


The evening ended with a warm meal prepared by their hostsβ€”and hearts full of gratitude for another beautiful day on the Walk of Peace.

A Song Along the Steps


One long staircase became a quiet reminder.


β€œAlle Zeiten fließen weiter,

steig herab, die Himmelsleiter…”


As Conny walks, Erika’s voice gently accompanies the journey.

πŸ•ŠοΈ Every step can become a song of peace.

Day 3–Towards Lake Zurich


After a warm farewell to Georg and Aurora, the walkers began the third stage refreshed by the cool morning air.


The route from Steg to Rapperswilled mostly downhill towards beautiful Lake Zurich.


Wide landscapes, quiet forest paths and breathtaking views accompanied every step.


After another hot summer day, the turquoise water of the lake became a welcome gift for tired feet.


✨ This day truly felt like a gift.

──────── πŸ•ŠοΈβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€

A Song for the Journey


One more song accompanied the final steps.


β€œDas Leben ist wie die Herrlichkeit…”


As the walkers continue through the peaceful forest, Erika’s voice fills the path with gratitude and quiet joy.


πŸ•ŠοΈ The journey may end, but the peace continues.

Day 4 – Rapperswil to Einsiedeln


The final stage led the walkers from

Rapperswil to Einsiedeln.


A beautiful path, shared with Brigitta,

made this last day especially meaningful.


The journey came full circle as Pierre welcomed the walkers back at Einsiedeln

Abbey, where everything had begun.


✨ The circle of the Walk of Peace is complete.

The journey of peace continues.
