Swiss ban Germans from nude hiking in Alpine town: A SWISS village is trying to ban an army of invading nude German hikers who have taken over their picturesque corner of the Alps. Officials in the town of Appenzell have introduced a fixed fine for people found hiking in just a pair of sturdy boots and a rucksack after a German nudist organisation promoted “nature” walks for its members, reports the Daily Telegraph. Local government secretary Markus Dörig said that local people were offended by the visitors.
'It became clear there was a desire to fine people.
'We live in the countryside and people here want to live a quiet and undisturbed life.
'These incidents were really annoying.'
The laws were changed late last week, now allowing local authorities to give the naturists a $280 on-the-spot fine.
Despite most villagers being relieved at the cover-it-up laws being passed, central committee of the International Naturist Foundation Barbara Foley told the Daily Mail: “I can understand that we all have to live in this world together.
