Hiking the Larch Valley in the fall was one of my bucket list items. The larches only stay yellow for about 2-3 weeks before they drop their needles. So I was very happy that during COVID we were finally able to make this trip. It felt like a long hike until we hit this point where all of a sudden you entered a magical place that's filled with golden trees. A bit like walking through the world of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
