The committed Wales fans who drove hours through the Alps to watch their heroes train in Switzerland

They have returned to Fiesch - a town of around 1,000 people less than 10 miles from the Italian border - after first coming here in 2019, in a bid to bolster their cardiovascular fitness ahead of what is sure to be a testing campaign in France later this year.
