Sorry for those of you receiving this twice: take it as a friendly reminder to sign up in the doodle http://www.doodle.com/y62nm8p8und3mxcd#table. Apparently students had been left out in the first email. One day I will master all the QIT mailing lists!

Dear quantum walkers,
You know you have been waiting for it. You heard rumors, had suspicions, discussed theories, maybe joined the underground movement to try to uncover the truth (TUMTTTUTT). Lose your sleep no longer! Here is the plan for this year's group hike.
There will be two days of activities. You can join either or both.
*Saturday, 11th of August: Water*
Rafting in the Inn, near Scuol
http://www.myswitzerland.com/en/meetings/meeting-schedule/activities-mice/ad...
I will choose a particular trip/activity/adventure once I know how many people are coming, but I had in mind something like this: http://www.engadin-adventure.ch/index.php/en/afternoon-trips
Note that this activity will only take 3h max, meaning:
1) we can leave Zurich relatively late in the morning (around 10)
2) you can come along even if you (or your baby) aren't fond of rafting; the rest of the day will be spent enjoying the Engadine valley.
There is also a rope course nearby, if you (or your children) prefer air to water: http://www.seilpark-engadin.ch/index.php/home
The night will be spent near an undisclosed lovely place in Graubünden.
*Sunday, 12th of August: Land*
A seven-hour hike through the National Park, starting from Zernez (2:30h away from Zurich).
In principle we will take this route,
http://www.wanderland.ch/en/routen_etappen.cfm?subcat=RegionalRoute&id=3... in the reverse direction.
It is composed of these two routes: http://www.nationalpark.ch/go/en/visit/trails-routes/?trail=8 http://www.nationalpark.ch/go/en/visit/trails-routes/?trail=8
National park: http://www.nationalpark.ch/go/en/
We return to Zurich on Sunday evening.
Please sign up *this week* here: http://www.doodle.com/y62nm8p8und3mxcd
If you are signing up for Saturday, let me know what kind of activity you prefer.
More details to follow soon! Best, Lidia
