The votes are in - nude hiking update

Last month I blogged about nude hiking in Switzerland.

Well, the voters in the canton of Appenzell Inner Rhodes have voted, and they've turned a thumbs down. Nude hikers in their canton will now be subject to a hefty fine.

Appenzell Outer Rhodes-ers haven't voted yet, so there's still a bit of time if you want to make a nature-nature hike. But you'd better hurry:

A similar legal move is expected in neighboring Appenzell Outer Rhodes with legislation being prepared against "this shameless behavior."

Looks like this canton is going to follow (birthday) suit.
