Hiking Map Visualizes Swiss‑EU Bilateral Routes
The Europe alliance Stark+vernetzt commissioned a new hiking map that traces Switzerland’s bilateral agreements with the EU across nine routes. The creative concept and map were developed by Zurich agency Evoq and the accompanying website was programmed by Lucerne agency Netnode. The printed map and online version include route lengths, elevation differences and waypoints; QR codes on the print version link to the online routes. The map is offered to organisations and companies as a dispenser and is also available individually via the project website. The article notes a similar map was produced by industry association Swissmem in 2018 and that the negotiated Bilaterals III (the “Switzerland‑EU” package) has been pending in the Swiss parliament since March 2026.

The route ran from Lampenberg via the Wildenstein nature reserve to Bubendorf, with Jans and his wife Tracy accompanying participants and discussing politics, civic engagement and his youth as a scout. Tracy Jans, cited in the release, works as a biostatistician at the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute in Allschwil. The event included a musical moment where Jans played drums with Baselbiet musician Flavian Graber and concluded with a brunch at Hofgut Grosstannen accompanied by the 'Chor der Nationen'. SI editor-in-chief Silvia Binggeli called the annual walk a Swiss privilege; a full report will appear in Schweizer Illustrierte and L'illustré starting 31 July 2026.
