Legendary Dogs of the Alps: Meeting St. Bernards in Barryland

Join me on Katy in the Mountains as I head into the Swiss Alps to visit Barryland, the museum dedicated to the famous St. Bernard dogs. In Martigny, Barryland offers a wonderful insight into the history of these incredible rescue dogs who have been helping and saving lives in the mountains for centuries. Find out about the Great St. Bernard Hospice and how these gentle giants became a symbol of Swiss culture and bravery. Listen in for a trip back in time and meet the St. Bernards who still delight visitors today! This feature was first broadcast on World Radio Switzerland in 2016. #Barryland #StBernardDogs #SwissHeritage #Martigny #PodcastEpisode #HistoricalTour #TravelPodcast #MountainRescue #SwissHistory #DogLovers #fondationbarry [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/fondationbarry?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZUrBm5VKrXFAuTdkg5HBlIUJuqkPbywSHnNWzxj5fqX6iFsa7kYRzCarF4dUpo5P2XX_cNDPaCLicFCAH0oJ51OIST0OPwcW3NPssw-5b_8q0H1SAHEUQOsRysQS48cTkYaC-2V464imJc5gwDBwV9IyU9zxfWYo9U3VHhuF9Fabw&__tn__=*NK-R] About me: ⁠www.katydartford.com⁠ [https://katydartford.com/] ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@cayteye⁠ [https://www.tiktok.com/@cayteye] ⁠https://x.com/cayteye⁠ [https://x.com/cayteye] ⁠https://www.facebook.com/cayteye⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/cayteye] https://www.instagram.com/cayteye/ [https://www.instagram.com/cayteye/] https://katyinthemountains.substack.com/p/welcome-to-katy-in-the-mountains [https://katyinthemountains.substack.com/p/welcome-to-katy-in-the-mountains] https://www.youtube.com/@cayteye [https://www.youtube.com/@cayteye] https://www.instagram.com/cayteye/ [https://www.instagram.com/cayteye/] https://katyinthemountains.substack.com/p/welcome-to-katy-in-the-mountains [https://katyinthemountains.substack.com/p/welcome-to-katy-in-the-mountains] https://www.youtube.com/@cayteye [https://www.youtube.com/@cayteye]

Stuck in a Cable Car High Above the Vallee Blanche

It was a long cold sleepless night for the three dozen or so people who had to spend the night dangling in cable cars about the famous glacier in Chamonix, in the French Alps. I was there when it all happened and spoke to people when they finally set their feet back on firm ground. This report was first broadcast in 2016 on World Radio Switzerland.
