This was my first time skiing for me and my daughter. Our instructor Asbjorn was very patient and friendly. But above all he gave us confidence, so we improved rapidly and made us even doing a short red piste being completely in control.

Great experience with the booking and ski instruction too. Ash was really considerate but pushed me to realise my potential. I really did learn from Ash and put this into practice while skiing with the family and friends in the afternoon. With best wishes, Yvonne

I had the privilege of having Darcey as my ski Instructor during my time in Saas-Fee. I really felt encouraged and my confidence improved massively throughout the week (Her patience was remarkable!) I cannot recommend her enough, Thank you Darcey!

Thank you so much Darsey, our top professor.. Very much accommodating, always wears a smile though I’m doing some errors. She never gets tired of giving me some tips on how to ski well…etc etc… Very well recommended… for the first timers or even people who wants to learn more… she’s the best instructor you will ever have.. Bravo Darsey 👍👏

Great instructors and very helpful teaching approach for adults of all levels and kids. They provide good theories and tips on techniques. Many thanks for the lessons!

My son and I had an awesome private ski lesson from Mat. He was super courteous, patience, competent instructor. He let us have our own pace (never pushy) yet taught us all the basic principles and forms as well as important tips such as you never look down or look at your skies when skiing. He made sure we got our forms down correctly and challenged us to improve our forms. He made our time so worthwhile and fun. By the end of the session, we both felt confident and highly satisfied with our day. I highly recommend him for your ski lessons! Thank you so much Mat!

Very friendly, professional and enthusiastic young team with international experience guides and instructors 👍🏻 The Office Team of the ski school will definitely find the best fit & options for your requests! You gonna feel welcome and appreciate for making best out for f your winter sport holiday in Saas-Fee!

I wanted my son to brush up on his skiing this August after his travel baseball season ended in July. He played football last school year but decided to join the high school ski team this winter. Since he hadn't skied very often the last couple seasons I contacted Ski Zenit and asked if they could help him shake off the rust. Since this is a camp for experienced ski racers we opted for a 5 day private lesson on the Saas Fee glacier. Rich was my Ski Zenit contact and he couldn't have been more accomodating. He planned our transportation from Geneva and laid out everything we would need to be prepared and make this excursion a success. My son's ski instructor, Chris, sent us daily videos and kept us informed of his progress. He improved dramatically over the week and we couldn't be happier with his progress. Way to go Ski Zenit!

Had a great experience taking lessons with Chris! He taught us so much in two days; I felt much more confident after just our first lesson. Chris was able to tailor the lessons very well to everyone’s skill level, and took us to a variety of terrains where we practiced and improved on various techniques. I would 10/10 recommend Chris and Ski Zenit if you want to improve your skiing and have fun doing it!

Amazing lesson- my first time to take private lessons. Finally after years of trying to learn I feel more confident! My instructor, Max, was fantastic! Patient and great company. He made it look so easy. The staff had excellent communications before we arrived as well. Highly recommended.

I had an incredible experience with Ski Zenit! After 28 years away from skiing, I decided to book a private lesson, and I was lucky enough to have Chris as my instructor. His teaching approach was clear, patient, and highly effective. In just one session (2.5h), he taught me the essential skills I needed to move forward confidently. Chris made everything easy to understand and apply, and his encouragement was incredibly motivating. I can't recommend Ski Zenit and Chris enough – if you're looking to improve or get back into skiing, this is the place to start!

I had an amazing experience with Max as my ski instructor! He was incredibly patient and kind throughout the lesson, always encouraging me and making me feel comfortable. Max helped me regain my confidence on the slopes, and thanks to his expert guidance, I managed to conquer an icy red slope without fear. I couldn't have done it without him! Highly recommend Max to anyone looking to improve their skiing skills or just enjoy their time on the slopes. Thank you, Max!

We booked the trainer Ellen for 1 week. We had so much fun and where able to ski on the first day. Ellen is quit and very professional. We had really a great time. The video shows Ellen and our daughter. We will definitely come back to Zenit School and hopefully Ellen. Kind regards, Marco, Daniela and Anna.

We had a fantastic experience with Zenit. Our instructor Tim was brilliant, super patient, fun and helpful. The children said he’s the best instructor they’ve ever had, and they have both made huge progress. The whole team at Zenit were so and accommodating. I highly recommend this company - 5 stars!

Easy hike even for those who are not experts. Once you reach the upper valley the panorama is incredible, the path is relaxing, there are secluded picnic areas and cottages with restaurants. Great hike for the whole family.

Awesome place. So pretty!

Beautiful! Worth the detour.

Tip top Chamoson 😁

very very nice

(Translated by Google) The plain is reached via a very sunny mule track on the way out and completely shaded on the way back (1 hour and 5 minutes). Various trails branch off from the plain, with varying levels of difficulty and duration. Two hotels and a refuge are currently open. Before reaching the plain, at the end of the mule track, stop at the cheesemaker for a yogurt or to sample/purchase local cheeses. Avoid Saturdays and Sundays only because of the parking problem, which fills up at 9:30 a.m.; after that, there's room for everyone on the plain. (Original) La piana si raggiunge con una mulattiera molto assolata in andata e completamente all'ombra al rientro (1 ora e 5 minuti). Dalla piana si dipartono vari sentieri con diversi livelli di difficoltà e durata. Sono attualmente attivi due alberghi ed un rifugio. Prima di giungere alla piana, al termine della mulattiera, fermatevi dal casaro per uno yogurt o un assaggio/acquisto formaggi locali. Evitate il sabato e la domenica solo per il problema parcheggio che alle 9.30 esaurisce la sua capienza, poi alla piana c'è posto per tutti.

From there, take a fairly challenging trail that will take you to the Veglia plain in about 1.5 hours. This offers the possibility of a beautiful circular hike, and more. (Original) Una volta arrivati a San Domenico bisognerà proseguire ancora per un km dove si arriverà in località Ponte Campo dove si lascerà l'auto in un parcheggio a pagamento 5 euro al giorno.

The castle's history, from its construction to the present day, is very interesting. The castle garden invites you to linger. I think it must be particularly beautiful in spring and summer.

The castle was closed the day we went to Brig, but the garden itself is worth the visit. It was quiet, a perfect place for a picnic with an astonished view. Toilets are available. Highly recommended

A great place to just stop, take in the views. A very interesting atmosphere around, lots of history here.

Nice Palace, but without a guide, you can't explore the interior at all. My bf and I ended up sitting out in the gardens feeding sparrows for an hour (which was lovely). Admission is free.

Late this freezing cold January Sunday afternoon we visited this magnificent 17th century castle in the very center of the old town of Brig, that previously was unknown to us. We were all by ourselves and could enjoy the sun progressively setting on the western facade of the castle with shadows of the naked trees being projected on the pale yellow color of the building. Our only regret was that we had not arranged for a visit to the interior but that will be a good project for a future visit.

There was a wedding going on when we arrived, so it felt rude to go in. Can't tell you much about the interior. Spent our time outside in the park. Nice kempt garden with students and kindergartens in all directions, but they were well behaved and not offensive. Lovely views and nice weather. Park at the train station and walk up. Plenty of touristy stuff around the area, so well catered for.

I haven't been inside the castle and only been to the courtyard and outside park of palace. It is an impressive palace and courtyard. If you are in Brig and have 30-45 mins, take a short walk from Bahnof through the old town to the palace. It is totally worth your time. You can have a guided tour for which you will need more time. Hopefully next time, I will be able to do it.

Absolutely wonderful place for the family. Lots to do, spotlessly clean, friendly staff. No matter the weather this is a great year round activity. After you have paid you don’t need to worry about anything else, your wrist band is your locker key and how you pay at the bar. On the way out scan your wrist band on the pay machine and pay for your drinks.

Much remains the secret of nature, but what is known makes Leukerbad absolutely extraordinary. It takes an unbelievable 40 years for the seeping mountain water deep in the Alps to be enriched with valuable minerals, warmed to the perfect temperature of up to 51° Celsius, and transformed into thermal water. Only then does it bubble naturally from the earth and flow into the Leukerbad baths. To step into these waters is to experience true Alpine wellness, a gift of nature that has been patiently prepared for decades. The Leukerbad Therme is the largest thermal bath in the entire Alpine region, and it truly deserves its reputation as an Alpine wellness paradise for young and old. With ten relaxing baths, family-friendly slides, and a modern sauna area offering a wide range of wellness and natural healing options, this place is unforgettable. The backdrop of the Alps, combined with the charm of the beautiful town of Leukerbad, makes the experience even more magical. We stayed from 8 in the morning until 8 at night and enjoyed every moment. The pools are soothing, the atmosphere is rejuvenating, and the spa treatments are exceptional. Be sure to request Nicole for your massage or treatment, as her care and expertise make the day even more special. From bathing in the thermal waters to indulging in the wellness services, the hours simply slipped away in pure relaxation and joy. This is not just a place to visit, it is a place to linger. A single day is wonderful, but a few days are ideal in order to fully enjoy both the Therme and the many beautiful hikes that surround Leukerbad. Between the healing waters, the serenity of the spa, and the natural beauty of the Alps, this is truly a destination like no other. If you are searching for an experience that combines wellness, fun, and breathtaking scenery, the Leukerbad Therme is perfect. It is a place to restore body and spirit, to laugh and relax, and to create memories that will last forever.

I have absolutely loved it. There are so many things to do: water slides, outdoor and indoor pool, pool bar, sauna and so on. There are also facilities to people with children. Minuses: - Towel is not included, so bring yours. - We did not find any water fountains.

Worth doing at least once ! I really enjoy the place… you can just swim on top, or slide in the tube with the kids!! Or just relax on the other level, where water is just so great…

I have visited this location during both the winter and late summer seasons, and the views were consistently impressive. The water temperature was notably pleasant. While the buildings exhibit some age, the environment offers a relaxing and enjoyable experience for visitors of all ages. Furthermore, the pricing is quite reasonable, especially for Swiss standards. The facility also provides a small dining area for guests who wish to bring and consume their own meals.

I liked the landscape and the diversity of options, both indoors and outdoors. I didn't find the installations particularly beautiful, but they were clean, perfectly working, and all seemed fairly priced. We didn't wait, and the employees were very welcoming.

The main indoor and outdoor pools look newly renovated and are in excellent condition. There’s also a children’s pool and a small play area, which makes it great for families. The spa area is in good shape, though a bit small. It includes a steam bath, three or four saunas at different temperatures, and a cold-water pool outside. The spa area is nude-only, and access to it costs an additional 15 CHF. Overall, a very pleasant and relaxing experience.

I’m glad I ignored the handful of negative reviews, which mostly are from a few years ago. These thermal baths are quiet, in a stunning location and with helpful, friendly staff. The view from the outdoor pool is beautiful, the spa “village” is very good and the Aufguss - every two hours - was excellent; the man who led it was a master with the towels! The Roman-Irish bath was well done - sure, it’s not Baden-Baden and the facilities are a bit tired in places, but I’m very pleased I made the trip.

Wanted somewhere to relax after a day waking in the mountains and was going to go to one of the other pools after reading the reviews. The other place was too busy for me so decided to ignore the reviews and try here. So glad we did. The pools are lovely and the outdoor pool has a stunning view It wasn't at all crowded and so relaxing. Yes the changing rooms may need an update and some of the lockers too but they were clean and the staff helpful and friendly

The Spa/ Therme is in a bad condition. In the shower the handle fall off, lights are broken, the floor in the water is dirty. Multiple elevators are broken. One Sauna is out of orders for years and I payed 40.- CHF for 3h. All that said, it's a shame cause the building itself is beautiful and has a great view. And the idea of an underground Sauna village is also beautiful. Because it's so run down you also have not many people around either what is nice at least. Of you owner of this spa reading this review: Please please please renovate this spa! It would be a shame to see it go under.

Lovely spa, quiet with lots of capacity and a great variety of facilities. Possibly it could be described as dated but I don't think that detracted from my experience.

I absolutely love this thermal bath, amazing pools with incredible views, it's just simply gorgeous and the saunadorf is so unique and nice. Beautiful architecture.

we were checking this place out to experiance another thermal spring in leukerbad. sadly this place wasnt worth going since it was almost deserted (including the mal which was almost dead (most shops where closed for good and empty), and the baths were poorly visited (mid july!). it was a weird experience. economicaly this doesnt seem to check out anymore. also lots of stuff in bad shape and poorly maintained.

It feels unrealistic to be able to take a hot spring bath in the middle of the Alps. The hotel is quite spacious and convenient. The surrounding scenery is breathtakingly beautiful and doesn't let you take your eyes off it. Maybe that's why everyone I meet greets kindly each other.

Great waterfall zo visit! Especially, when the powerplant opens the floodgates. When you stand near it, t's a good way to cool down as well during hot days. Finding parking can be tricky at the base of the waterfall. Bit the top has arranged parking.

Beautiful waterfall! You can see from up and down as well.

Nice walk and the spider web is the icing on the cake !

Great walk to get to this place, amazing view of the waterfall right in the mountains. Not too strenuous to get there for a pretty basic hiker like me.

An old trade route and wow this must have been a popular stopping point for hundreds of years. I love the way there is a jetti that allows you to feel extra close to this dramatic waterfall. the valley leading up to it has many waterfalls, more if rained. I reccomend a visit. it's up a long dead end road from beneco. but there are places to stay and great walking at good altitude after the dam and mountain hut.

This Is One of the Most beautiful Falls i have EVER seen. I went with cantoni tours tò meditate and i was satisfied. I Will surely come back tò see more of It...

It's a beautiful place. Nature is Amazing

A truly once in a lifetime experience. We purchased tickets the day before as we weren't sure the weather was going to be good or not but it was perfect. Also very wheelchair friendly. We spent about 4 hours up there which gave us enough time to have lunch at the dine in restaurant and also see all the viewing points and experience the Ice Palace without rushing. There were also some snow activities you could participate but that would have required a bit more time. It was busy but manageable.

A truly unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience! We booked our tickets just a day in advance, unsure about the weather—but it turned out to be absolutely perfect. The entire area was impressively wheelchair-friendly, making the visit comfortable for everyone. We spent around 2 hours exploring, which gave us ample time to enjoy a relaxed lunch at the dine-in restaurant, take in all the scenic viewpoints, and explore the magical Ice Palace without feeling rushed. There were also some exciting snow activities available, though they would have required a bit more time. It was a bit busy, but still very manageable and thoroughly enjoyable.

Standing at the “Top of Europe” surrounded by breathtaking Alpine peaks and sparkling glaciers felt truly magical. The train journey itself was scenic, and once there, the crisp, fresh air combined with the incredible panoramic views made it a highlight of my trip. The blend of natural beauty and the impressive mountain infrastructure created an awe-inspiring and peaceful experience.

Wow The breathtaking views and superbly managed facility with so many visitors and yet everything works just perfectly fine. If planning to reach around lunchtime, it's better to book restaurants in advance. Because everything it gets sold out pretty quickly In my opinion, if you truly want to enjoy the place, then 2 hours is not sufficient. Because that is as far as discovery tour goes.But if you want some time to be doing some activities, it can take up to 4 hours.

When you arrive at this spot in Switzerland, you really don’t need to think twice — just buy a ticket to Jungfraujoch. But here’s a tip: since the weather at the summit changes quickly, it’s best to check the official website first. They have live cameras, so to avoid wasting money, check the conditions in advance — after all, prices in Switzerland are truly expensive.

Our trip to Jungfraujoch was absolutely breathtaking—hands down more impressive than Mt. Titlis. The panoramic views from the Top of Europe were stunning, and we especially loved the sledging experience, which added a fun and adventurous touch to the day. One thing to note: food at the summit is quite expensive. We recommend grabbing some snacks or a light meal from the Coop supermarket located near the base station before taking the cable car up. It’s a smart way to stay fueled without overspending. We visited in August, and the weather was surprisingly warm. A single jacket was more than enough—no need for woolen caps or gloves. Overall, the entire experience was magical and well worth the trip.

Great place to see. Check Webcam in the morning depending on what time of the year. Make sure its not cloudy in the mornings the take your shot. We got lucky.

Absolutely breathtaking. The top of Europe it prides itself as. 3475M of elevation. A must visit if you're in Grindelwald. You have to change trains twice to get up here but the views are amazing. Theres different stations that you can go to and there's an ice station as well. You can easily spend 2 to 3 hours here.

There’s no denying it: the Jungfraujoch is one of the most spectacular spots in all of Switzerland. The panorama is simply breathtaking — an endless sea of snow and glaciers framed by the iconic peaks of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. It’s the kind of place that makes you whisper “wow” before you even realize you’re doing it. That said, the experience is very tourist-oriented — and I say that with both appreciation and a smile. On the one hand, it’s impressive how accessible everything is: tunnels, elevators, shops, cafés, even an ice palace. The Swiss engineering behind this mountaintop infrastructure deserves applause. On the other hand, the sheer number of visitors can make you feel like you’ve taken a scenic detour through a luxury shopping mall at 3,500 meters. And then there’s the crowd itself — a fascinating, unstoppable wave of excited tourists from all over the world. You haven’t truly experienced the Jungfraujoch until you’ve seen a group of people taking selfies in sneakers at nearly 4,000 meters above sea level. It’s equal parts surreal and entertaining — like a nature documentary directed by Wes Anderson. All in all, the Jungfraujoch remains an unforgettable experience. It’s beautiful, over-the-top, slightly chaotic, and absolutely worth it. Just don’t expect solitude or silence — and maybe bring sunglasses, patience, and a good sense of humor along with your camera.

Absolutely stunning, snow all round the year, less tourist compared to Titlis. A nice tour route set up. You will clearly need 5 hrs and more if you want to enjoy every spot at your pace. The snowtubing and sledging were absolute fun. 20 CHF for Half hour and unlimited rides. Ice palace was beautifully carved. The hot chocolate shop at Aletsch glacier was yummy. Point to note- you have to walk a lot there, but for older people and people who are unable to walk a lot, there are places to sit in the warmth of the tunnel and enjoy the views.

Mürren is a village suspended between earth and sky, a quiet balcony carved into the cliffs of the Swiss Alps. Here, the world seems to breathe more slowly. Wooden chalets cling to the mountainsides like timeless guardians, and the air carries the clean, ringing silence of high places—broken only by the distant echo of waterfalls or the soft bells of grazing cows. From this lofty terrace, the giants of the Bernese Alps—Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau—stand like ancient sentinels, their snowy crowns catching the first blush of dawn and the last gold of evening. The clouds drift low, brushing past rooftops like wandering spirits, and every path leads to vistas that feel almost unreal, as if the mountains had stepped out of a painting and invited you to walk inside. Mürren is not merely a place to visit; it is a place to feel. A place where time loosens its grip, where every breath tastes of pine and glacier, and where the heart instinctively slows to the rhythm of the land. It is Switzerland at its most enchanting—quiet, majestic, and impossibly beautiful.

never would, I have thought that I would experience my first high altitude sickness at Jungfraujoch. It was a torturous 20 minutes however, most of my time spent there was nothing short of amazing

An absolute must see if you're in the Jungfrau region. The views of the Alps are unreal. The viewing platform at the Sphinx and the area with the flags lower down give the best photo opportunities. The ice sculptures are worth checking out.

The number one attraction as well as the most expensive attention in all of Switzerland. It cost about $500 usd for two people. The gondola ride up is amazing and the best cable car ride in the world. After the cable car you arrive at eigen glacier which is also very beautiful, then you take the train up to jungfraujoch and the train stops in the middle for you to see another glacier. Once you’re at the top there are several stations you can take a look at most of which can be seen in the photos I posted. You’ll also want to check their public webcam to make sure the weather is good on the day you come.

Visiting Schilthorn Piz Gloria was absolutely one of the highlights of my trip. The cable car ride itself was an incredible experience, smooth, comfortable, and offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Swiss Alps. As we ascended, the scenery just kept getting more and more spectacular. At the top, the weather was perfect, which made the whole experience even more magical. The 360° views from Piz Gloria are truly stunning with snow-capped peaks, valleys, and endless mountain ranges that leave you speechless. The Bond-themed touches add a fun and unique twist to the visit, but the natural beauty alone is worth every penny. It’s not just a sightseeing trip, it’s an unforgettable adventure. Between the views, the atmosphere, and the overall experience, I can confidently say this was worth every moment and every cent. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Switzerland!

Somewhat pricey to take the gondola up to the top, but it's well worth it for the views. There is a bunch of James Bond history and plaquards. But the views alone are breathtaking. You should fefinitely wait for a clear day, othe you'll just be looking at the fog.

Break taking views! Certain areas were under construction, but it did not take away from our experience. Be sure to walk out to the point and enjoy time in one of the viewing boxes.

Was the filming location of a 007 movie. Granted it is not as high as Jungrafraujoch, but the views are equally fantastic. Highly recommended to make a trip here. There is a rotating restaurant at the tower area also as well that serves very decent buffet lunch.

Great experience. The cable car on the first stretch is supposedly the steepest in the world. Remembered to include the 9 Euro cheese / cold cut option, which is served at the revolving Piz Gloria restaurant. It comes with a drink and there was plenty of food to fill us up. And it tasted good, too. So pretty much a no-brainer. The view from the top was great. Unfortunately clouds descended while we were there and it even started to hail. Which kind of added to the whole experience. Some cool James Bond stuff - check out the bathroom mirrors! Unfortunately quite a lot of construction going on, which detracted from the whole experience. Will still give it 5 stars, but probably more like 4.5 due to construction, high cost and a very unpleasant guy in the ticket booth. Everything else was perfect and definitely an experience. Now back in the US and planning on watching On Her Majesty’s Secret Service tonight 😊

My less-than-ideal rating was solely due to the unfortunate timing of my visit. Otherwise, I would have missed the opportunity to go altogether. It was a heavily overcast day, because of that, I skipped exploring Birg and went straight up to Schilthorn instead. On top of the poor weather, Schilthorn was still under construction. After a quick browse through the gift shop, a short walk around the outdoor deck, and a light snack at the restaurant, it was already time to head back down. I’d have to return someday to truly experience the full beauty of this attraction. Hopefully on a clear day and once the construction is finally complete.

The views are priceless and it's definitely worth it to go! However, be warned that getting around through the construction is extremely difficult. It look 20 minutes to figure out how to go down to the Walk of Fame and the View Lounges. That, for me, was the best part. It's away from the hordes of people fighting to get the best selfie and closer to nature. You can see forever! The best time to go is usually between 15:00-18:00 in the summer (weather permitting) because the clouds tend to lift around that time.

Maybe the one thing in Switzerland that doesn’t feel overpriced. Awesome experience. The roaring of the waterfalls in the caves was potentially a cooler experience than the actual waterfalls themselves. Plenty of parking Pro tip: take elevator to the 6-10 waterfalls and then make your way down from 6-1. Was an hour and a half experience for us.

Spectacular falls which are well set up with all the different viewpoints. I took the lift up to viewpoint 6 then walked the stairs to the top, which isn't difficult but you definitely need good grippy shoes. I didn't get too wet, only a few drips here and there but you will need a jacket as it is very cold. There is a little souvenir shop located along the path as well as the cafe with clean toilets. I stopped for coffee and a muffin, both were delicious 😋

An unforgettable experience! Trümmelbach Falls is a truly unique natural wonder — 10 glacier waterfalls hidden inside a mountain, carrying meltwater from the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. You ride a lift up through the rock and walk through tunnels, stairs, and bridges carved into the cliff. It’s moderately physical (lots of steps!), but totally worth it. The sound and power of the waterfalls — up to 20,000 liters per second — is breathtaking. Well organized, very safe, and perfect for a 1-hour visit. Highly recommend wearing good non-slip shoes. Tickets were CHF 14 for adults (2024) and free parking is just a 2-minute walk from the entrance.

Trümmelbach Falls, in Lauterbrunnen Valley lets you walk inside a mountain, with roaring waterfalls echoing through rock tunnels. The short hike includes stairs up and down, so wear sturdy shoes. There is optional lift inside the mountain. Visit early to avoid crowds and bring a waterproof jacket—the spray is strong. Tickets can be bought on site. The dramatic sound and close-up views make it a rare natural wonder worth seeing. Photography is allowed but watch your gear around water.

Very cool experience! The admission is 15CHF per adult and 7CHF per kid and for us it is it was definitely worth it. Not to mention that the walk to the area is breathtaking.

The walk to the falls was magical! There is an entry fee, I can’t recall the amount. You will get wet. There’s a bakery that you can enjoy before or after that was delightful!

Absolutely mesmerizing! Make sure you buy the ticket to get to the Glacier (Gletscher) as it is more than worth it!

Great drive up. One side is a lot narrower than the other so more enjoyable on the way down if coming from the Sustenpass

Breathtaking views from the roof of Europe. One of the most beautiful roads on the continent.

Such a great place to go through . Do not miss the opportunity to travel through if you are lucky enough and the pass is open. While the amount of turns may worry you, the views from there truly deserve the inconvenience.

Amazing sights, roads are perfect

Loved the ride 😎. Also the Rhone glacier is amazing and worth seeing till last.

If you enjoy driving on mountain passes, the do come. Fair warning - you may get stuck behind slow traffic. In case you do, just park on the side of the e rad and wait. Great views, awesome driving experience.

Lauterbrunnen Valley is absolutely breathtaking! The river runs crystal clear, waterfalls cascade from the cliffs, and during spring, the valley is filled with vibrant yellow flowers. A truly magical place to experience nature at its best.

Such a beautiful little town, very clean and well maintained. The streets are charming and it has a really pleasant atmosphere. We spent about two hours strolling around, taking our time to enjoy the views and the peaceful vibe. A lovely place to wander and soak up the surroundings.

Walking through the village, you’ll be greeted by traditional Swiss chalets, vibrant flower boxes, and the soothing sound of cascading water. The views are simply unforgettable—lush green meadows, dramatic rock faces, and the majestic Staubbach Falls tumbling down near the village center. Whether you’re hiking, biking, or just strolling, every corner offers a picture-perfect scene. For adventure enthusiasts, Lauterbrunnen is the gateway to incredible experiences: take a cable car up to Mürren or Wengen for panoramic alpine views, or explore nearby Jungfraujoch for a high-altitude thrill. If you prefer a slower pace, enjoy a coffee at a local café while soaking in the serene beauty of the valley.

Lauterbrunnen is a valley that feels straight out of a fairy tale—it's absolutely stunning. Staubbach Falls is just a short walk from the town. I visited in April and got to explore Staubbach Falls, Trümmelbach Falls, and Mürren.

“Lauterbrunnen is pure magic! 🌄✨ Surrounded by towering cliffs and stunning waterfalls, it feels like stepping into a fairy tale. Peaceful, breathtaking, and unforgettable — Switzerland at its finest! 💙🏞️ #Lauterbrunnen #Switzerland”

It's a destination that captures the essence of Switzerland's natural splendor. Make sure to visit and experience the magic for yourself – you won't be disappointed! Photos Taken During: November 22

Epic place turned into tourist trap. The iconic Belvedere Hotel (abandoned) is worth a stop though. Avoid buying anything at the shop and kiosk, its terribly overpriced. They charge 9chf if you wanna walk down to the lake or the artificial glacier tunnel. The lake viewpoint was rather uninteresting. The glacier tunnel was sad, while the blue hue of the ice looked cool, the tunnel looked like it would collapse any moment and is being desperately maintained to be open under any circumstances. The info panels though give some interesting information. If you just want to see the glacier, from the road, a few meters from the car park, a hiking trail goes up where you have a nice view for free. Or book a guided glacier hike tour, they are expensive but worth it. Its scary to see how much the glacier retreated when you see pictures of the 1970s.

Amazing glacier to see the unfortunate effects of climate change. It’s amazing all the ways that nature made us ponder. It would be easier to come here by car and the public transport is consist of a few buses that circulate only during the June- October (probably first week of October). Depending on where u live it might be wiser to go around by car. Our bus driver was very welcoming and gave complementary explanations about the area. I would recommend either staying nearby to visit the whole area or going around by a car in one day. The road is picturesque and also be careful if u have motion sickness!

Beautiful, worth the visit, specially late spring. Unfortunately the glacier is shrinking by the year but you can still visit inside and see the amazing walls of ice.

Man-made tunnels in the progressively melting Rhône glacier. The excavated part is covered with white-grey cloth to avoid further destruction. You can take a guide and hike the glacier which is probably a more interesting project than visiting this "horror show". The Belvedere hotel next to the glacier cave and uninteresting shop appears to be permanently closed. The view over the Rhône valley is magnificent.

Enjoy the glacier while you can. It’s receding at an alarming rate and might not exist for long. There is a small trail that goes up by the side of the road and takes you to the point where you can look at the lake and the full glacier together. It’s not a very difficult route but good shoes are a must.

Visit in October 2019, and previousely in 1986, when the glacier was still hanging over the south ridge. It is still a superb experience if you've never walked under the ice. Efforts are made to keep the tunnels accessible but it will not last forever.

Loved every piece of this place. Very shame that it can disappear in near future!!!

Lake Thun is an absolutely stunning and romantic lake! I visited in 2019 with my family, and it was truly a memorable experience. The lake offers breathtaking views, crystal-clear water, and many beautiful picnic spots to relax and enjoy nature. It’s a perfect place for couples and families alike — you’ll surely fall in love with the peaceful vibes and scenic surroundings. One of Switzerland 🇨🇭 most charming lakes! 🌄⛵✨

Lake Thun is absolutely stunning! The serene waters and beautiful surrounding hills create a perfect atmosphere for families. Our children loved exploring the lakeside, watching the ducks, and simply enjoying the fresh air. Plenty of space to walk, relax, and soak in the views. A truly memorable spot that’s perfect for a family outing!

Perfect place to see sunset 🌅!! No words to describe this beautiful place!! There is an accomodation where you can stay and enjoy alot!!

A dreamlike corner of Switzerland: Lake Thun Switzerland is breathtaking in every way, but Lake Thun has a special kind of magic. Surrounded by mountains, charming villages, and historic castles, it’s the perfect place to disconnect, breathe in fresh air, and marvel at nature. The water has a mesmerizing turquoise color, and every spot looks like it belongs on a postcard. Whether you’re sailing, strolling along the shore, or simply sitting down to take in the view, this lake offers peace and beauty in its purest form.

Enjoyed this boat ride especially on a nice weather day. View was gorgeous.

Lake Thun has absolutely amazing scenery. We spent almost an entire day there and still couldn't get enough. Starting in the morning, we enjoyed the view from St. Beatus Cave, getting a panoramic picture of the lake from above. Then we continued our adventure by ship, circling the lake and savoring every corner. The lake has very clear water, with beautiful typical farmhouses and the Swiss Alps in the background, adding to the picturesque setting. Every corner of the lake was stunning, perfect for healing and taking a break from your busy life.

The morning view of Lake Thun from Beatenberg is simply breathtaking and worth waking up early for.

Must see place. Stunning gorgeous and waterfall. Well maintained walkway. Ticket price includes the option to get the train back. Very clean cafe and toilet facilities. Staff very friendly.

Beautiful stroll through an impressive gorgeous. Worth the entry fee as it is used for upkeep of the board walk. Really spectacular and worth a visit. Understand it can get busy which would diminish the visit, so pick your time I guess. Parking available.

Even on a cold and windy day the gorge was impressive. Leaves were swirling and if felt like the wind would push us back at times but we continued on along the edge of the gorge. Perhaps because of the weather and the last time of day there were few other visitors, which was nice as it offered the opportunity for photos without strangers in view. The moves in and out of the tunnels made the walk a little more interesting, and the placards designed for the children were also a good distraction for them. We opted for the train return due to the late hour, which was an interesting experience in itself. The station hardly seemed like a place to wait for a train. Staff at both ends were very nice and helpful. While other reviewers say this isn't as impressive as other gorges around the Alps, I disagree, I very much enjoyed the 45 minute walk and would recommend it to friends. We did not really spend much time checking out the shops, restaurant, or at the playground, but they are there for additional services. Free parking was also available at both ends but the the west entrance had significantly more space. Side note: You can buy a combo ticket on the Zentral Bahn trains while on the way to the entrance to cover the train and the gorge. The ticket we bought at the gorge also covered our return on the train.

This was such an awesome place to visit when in Hasli Valley in Bernese Oberland. It truly is a natural wonder, and no picture will really show the true beauty you will see in person. What's great about the Aares Gorge is that it can be visited rain or shine. You'll get a different perspective depending on the weather. Give yourself plenty of time here. It's about a mile walk (45-60 minutes) along the limestone gorge and through the tunnels. It's truly a unique experience that deserves a special trip. I've never seen anything quite like it. It really shows you the torrential power of glaciel water as it carves its way over time through the valley. There are 2 entrances with parking lots. We started at the west entrance and exited at the east side. There was so much to see in between (including a waterfall). There is also a view of cave entrances from the pathway that were built to house the military during WWII. Fortunately, they never had to use it. There are interesting facts displayed along the way. It's pretty much an easy walk until you get to the east side. There is more of an incline on your way up as well as some steps up the hill. Just plan your entrance accordingly if you have limited mobility. It worked out very well for us. We were rewarded with a beautiful view of the Alps when exiting at the east side. Our guide met us in the parking lot. You can return by train to your initial starting point as well. We loved this experience so much!! There's so much to do here in the Canton of Bern. Make it a part of your trip when in Switzerland.

Visited on a day with lighter rain after several days of heavy downpours. The rushing rapids were astonishing to see though boardwalk could feel slippery at times. A beautiful landscape filled with natural wonders. A must see.

Definetly worth a visit if you are in the area, a pleasant walk at a cool place. The entrance fee I would say is quite cheap compared to other places in the Junfrau region. It also includes the train ride back which was convenient. You do need to press the stop button on the train if you want to get of at the Aareschlucht station.

A natural wonder. Walking through the narrow gorge with the turquoise river rushing below is thrilling and refreshing. Easy access and well-maintained paths make it perfect for all ages.

Lake Brienz was one of our favourite spots when we visited Interlaken. Strolling along the lakeside and browsing the shops on both sides of the street was such a relaxing experience.

This stunning lake in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland is one of the most scenic and serene places in the country. Surrounded by majestic mountains, lush forests, and picturesque villages, Lake Brienz offers a variety of activities and attractions for every type of traveller. Whether you want to relax on a boat ride, swim in the crystal-clear water, hike to a waterfall, or explore a historic town, Lake Brienz has something for you. We stayed at Lake Brienz, and it turned out to be one of the most beautiful and scenic moments of our trip. The lake's turquoise blue waters are truly mesmerizing. Absolutely captivated by the scenery. Waking up to a view of the Eiger and Jungfrau bathed in early sunlight is something I’ll never forget. The crisp mountain air, the mirror-calm lake, and the gentle sound of water lapping against the quay created the perfect backdrop for a peaceful stroll. Treated to postcard perfect views, a serene water, flower lined pathways, and the gentle rhythm of swans gliding across the lake. It is a must visit. PS: Whether you’re sipping a coffee as dawn breaks or enjoying the rose-gold glow of sunset on snowy peaks, every moment here feels like a postcard comes to life. If you’re after pure Alpine beauty and true relaxation, this spot i.e the Lake Brienz is not to be missed. Highly recommended for visiting when in Swiss.

Beautiful nature and lake colour, felt cold in morning ride twice in boat and extremely breathtaking views in Autumn with beautiful tree colours of lake and landscape.

One of the most beautiful lakes I've been to. The boat ride across the lake is a must.

Really stunning. Though, we had to pay 5CFH per person to enter the pier where they shot the famous kdrama crash landing on you

One of the most picturrsque spots most visited in Switzerland. My family was there on a holiday. Switzeland with its mountains lakes valleys is a tourists paradise.

Tis a stunning turquoise-colored lake. The lake is surrounded by majestic mountains, creating postcard-perfect views. One of the best ways to explore the lake is by taking a boat cruise, offering scenic views of the surrounding villages and peaks. Activities - Kayaking & Paddleboarding, Hiking & Biking, Photography, hiking trails. perfect for strolling and offer a glimpse into Swiss rural life. A half-day to full-day visit is ideal to soak in the breathtaking scenery.

Saw very good review about this place decided to give it a try. The playground is nice. CAROUSELL is simple but age 130 years old something different. The house that showcase how 200 years ago people living here is quite interesting, but wish there are more English explanation so that we know what we seeing. Many houses we visit is close or no one around at all. If need to pay for ticket I think is not quite worth it. We got cover by Swiss travel pass. The train ride inside is almost non existence because only a few ride a day at selected timing and you can tour around if you want to take train. End up we walk alot and some are not easy path. We were lost half way as this place is huge and limited sign. The map and sign some need sometime to figure out.

it's an amazing journey through time and hand-crafts! there are hundreds of structures guiding you through the places and timea of older switzerland with live demonstration for pottery, rope making, milling and many more! the crafts are well explained and kids & adults are equally in awe! many nifty playgrounds and infrastructure make the experience well rounded. the horse carriage schedule and high prices could be made more pleasant. also more simple info for how such houses were build would be cool.

Absolutely loved every moment of my visit! I had the honor of meeting a leather craftsman who was so kind as to make me a keyring. I chose a Longhorn design, perfect for a Texan. I also met the soup and coffee makers who used original equipment to create delicious, timeless food and drinks. It was truly amazing to watch. As I walked around the open-air museum, I was fascinated by how each house was unique in its own way. There was also a restaurant and a shack selling food and drinks. I could have easily spent the entire day there but unfortunately I had to catch a train and it's time to leave. Highly recommended.

You can spend the best 6 hours here. I am so impressed how well it is done and how big this is. I will come every season. It is definitely worth traveling 5 hours just for this❤️

So much to do and such great value for money. I recommend arriving early to get full value from your visit as you’ll need several hours to explore the various areas of Switzerland that are represented. A beautiful place, friendly staff and an essential stop for a summertime holiday in the Bernese Oberland.

One of the best places in Switzerland to visit with kids. The museum route is charming and very interesting, and the land is huge! We all learned a lot on our visit. Don't hurry, it’s impossible to see it all. One more reason to come back again…

A fantastic experience and a must-do if in the Brienz area. It truly is incredible what they've accomplished with this expansive property. Highest recommendations.

Right at the heart of an underrated gem of a city! Always worth a stay or a short trip before heading further into Alpine Switzerland! 🇨🇭⛰️

It is very sad we have to leave early. We will spend more time next time there. I enjoyed ride my E-bike there. Nice smiley people.

I don’t know the meaning of the spctuler

Both kayaking and surfing are possible here. So cool and unbelievable!

Great place to be in Thun. Located in the heart of the city, at the border of the river, with wonderful views in all directions. A lot of various cafe's and restaurants, with hundreds of seats outside. Can be crowdy on sunny days. From there, you can go shopping behind the corner, or walk along the river up to the kindergarten. Wonderful views on the sunny alps. Wholeheartedly recommended!

A great place for locals and tourists with a wide selection of bars and restaurants to choose from. It is brilliant all year round and can have festivals and small theatres. Prices are average for Switzerland in most places here.

Sat on the large steps by the river Aare. Large Willow type trees. Just wonderful and clean.

Amazing! Totally worth it. Try to plan so that it's not too cloudy and foggy at the top of the mountain so you can enjoy the view. There are a couple of Cafe's at the top. Give yourself 1-2 hours to enjoy the view before the return trip.

Our journey stopped at the middle station as the train derailed, the staff said she has never seen it happen before so it doesn’t look like it happens often, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. It was a cloudy day with little bit of sunshine, the view from starting point to the middle station was already stunning. As other people photos have shown, the best part is definitely the second half of the journey that we missed, it was a shame to have travelled across half the world to get here and missed that but we didn’t regret taking the train ride and enjoyed the first half, and unexpected events are part of the fun of travelling! While stuck at the middle station, they offered us apple juice for free. It took them about 1 to 2 hours to get another train up to take us back down to the starting point, then a full refund was given back to us.

This is an absolute must-do — totally worth it! We only made it up to Planalp that day because it was snowing at the top, but even that part of the ride was stunning. You get sweeping views of Lake Brienz and the surrounding snowy peaks all along the way. At Planalp, there are several hiking trails plus a restaurant that was packed with people. Honestly, the moment we opened the door it felt like walking straight into a scene from Red Dead Redemption 2 😂. Just a tip: if the sun isn’t out, it gets really chilly up there, so bring warm clothes. Definitely one of the unmissable highlights in the area!

Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, an absolute MUST when visiting Switzerland. Highly recommended booking your tickets in advance, as they tend to sell out quickly. I was fortunate to visit on a clear day and the scenery was breathtaking at every turn. The panoramic views were nothing short of spectacular. So glad I didn’t miss this unforgettable ride.

Well, if you are lucky and the sky ia clear, the views are insane! Really recommend for the views. It was a bit unpleasant on the way up because you have to stay with other 7 people in the same cabin all the time and it’s to tight. The best thing about this activity is that they offer you FOR FREE the ticket if it’s your birthday the day you go- so 100 less on expenses and they offer you as well a small gift ❤️

Unforgettable experience with the steam train and the hotel on top of Rothorn. The view was absolutely stunning during the train ride. The hotel staff was customer-oriented and very attentive. Food selection was quite limited, though. But we can understand because it's nearly 3000m from sea level, there's no direct access to supply.

I have to say that it is a very worthwhile experience. It is recommended to stay on the mountain for a while so that you can overlook the entire lake! also! The staff are really patient and kind! ! I accidentally left my headphones on the train and they helped to keep it until I was coming back!!! Sincerely appreciate it which makes me love Swiss 🥹

We were in the area on vacation and decided to take a train down to Thun and look around. The castle is very prominent on the skyline and looks quite interesting. We walked though the building and looked at the various displays which were well done. Centuries of history briefly summarized. The building itself is the main attraction. We went all the way to the top into the corner towers. The roof structure was amazing. Definitely recommend!

Castle Thun is a must-see when visiting the town! The displays and information are well-curated, making it easy to explore everything in just 2–3 hours. There are also interactive sections, like the wooden architecture exhibit in the attic and rooftop area, and the fascinating collection of ancient armors and weapons. The castle is well-maintained, easy to navigate, and offers a great balance of history and experience.

Worth the trip. The castle is stunning and you can see artefacts of the Old Swiss Confederacy, such as halberds, tapestries and armors. The Knight's room and the room under the roof where particularly stunning. On top of that, 4 towers flanking the roof are accessible and give you wonderful views of the city

The basic castle tour was interesting, but I was disappointed to find that there were virtually no period furnishings in any of the rooms. The audio tour aid added tremendously to the understanding of the castle history. Look closely, though, to find the signs which indicate when to use the audio aid. I recommend paying the extra fee to use it. I enjoyed the views from the tower. I paid extra for the special exhibit, which I didn't feel was worth the fee; skip it unless you are interested in forms of medieval punishment.

Definitely do the audio tour if you come here! Beautiful castle with a lot of history and amazing views from the top! No need to book tickets in advance

Thun castle does not match the vibe of other castles of Switzerland like Gruyère castle and Chillion castle. The castle is poor in terms of content and exhibits. Not much to explore inside. The staff is very friendly and there are free locker rooms available to keep your luggage. The best part was the top level of Thun castle from where you get 4 different panoramic views of Thun city and Lake Thun. If you are visiting Thun city then definitely visit this place otherwise skip it. Entry to Thun castle is free with Swiss Travel Pass.

The view from above was nice. We had a walk and took some pictures. It’s worth a visit if you’re passing by the city!

Gurten is a truly wonderful mountain with breathtaking views over Bern and the Alps. The atmosphere is peaceful, making it a perfect spot for hiking, relaxing, or simply enjoying nature.

A place where you can indulge yourselves in serenity surrounding. Stunning views, fresh air to inhale, cleanliness that one can fall in love with the country. Because I do.

Gurten is magical! 🌅 Fresh air, amazing view over Bern and the mountains - feels peaceful and inspiring 🧡✨

Recommend going on a sunny day, and preferably not Sunday. The toboggan ride was closed and views were good but not great (it was raining). If you’re staying at a hotel in Bern, your guest pass will allow you to ride the funicular for free. You could also hike up/down. We walked to Gurtendorf which was a sweet, tiny, village with a dairy farm. It’s definitely chillier and windier due to the elevation gain so pack a light jacket!

It takes only 10 minutes to reach this place from the main station (tram 9). After a five minute ride you will be able to enjoy a fantastic view of Bern and if the day is quite clear you will be able to spot mountains far away in all directions! If you travel with kids there is a playground here and also a restaurant. Perfect place for hiking and you can also bring your bicycle here!

The highest point of Bern. You can get a great view of Bern and on a clear day you get a mesemerizing view of the Alps as well . Nice place for a picnic with friends and family. It's a huge area on top and you can spend a few hours enjoying the view from different sides. Has a play area/ activity area for kids. And also a restaurant. Either take a funicular or climb up the hill. Both experiences are awesome.

Beautiful peak with 360 degrees view of the entire area. To get to the mountain top you can either take the tram (half priced for Swiss pass) or take the walking trail up. Portions of the trail has stairs and paved road making it very easy to climb. On top there are restroom facility, restaurant and amusement park, not to mention a spectacular view.

Pretty empty when we came and def felt slightly more off the beaten path. Would not call it a local favorite but def not a tourist must go, which created a more tranquil environment to enjoy the scenery. Restaurant had panoramic views and delicious soup while we warned up after the ride up to the summit. You can hike around a little further out and also up but we came when trails were still a bit icy so going back all the way down by foot was out of question. Def worth a trip if you are in the area for the great views.

Stunning hiking area at the top of the mountain. Wish I had more time to spend there. Gondola and funicular rides are charming in its own kind. Sunny weather was a huge boon to overall experience.

Absolutely loved our visit to Stanserhorn. The whole journey up is already an experience — first the charming vintage funicular, then the incredible open-air CabriO cable car which is honestly the highlight. Standing on the open top deck with fresh alpine air and 360° mountain views was unforgettable. Once at the top the views are just spectacular — lakes, snow-capped peaks, and so peaceful. Plenty of spots to just sit, relax and enjoy the scenery. One of the most unique mountain trips we’ve done in Switzerland. 100% worth it!

The weather wasn’t in our favor as cloudy and light rain. However we made it to the top and saw alpine marmots, snow and had fun! Great way to finish our time while visiting Luzern.

Amazing journey in clouds and flying through clouds and see many mountains at top. Best part did not pay extra like other mountains and only place can see local unlike others see many Chinese tourists....

Stanserhorn in Switzerland is a stunning mountain destination near the town of Stans in the canton of Nidwalden, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Swiss Alps, Lake Lucerne, and surrounding valleys. It is famous for the CabriO cable car, the world’s first open-top double-decker cable car, which gives visitors a unique experience of riding in the open air as they ascend to the summit at 1,898 meters. At the top, visitors can enjoy scenic hiking trails, a revolving restaurant that provides 360° views while dining, and opportunities to spot local wildlife such as marmots. Stanserhorn beautifully combines adventure, nature, and relaxation, making it a must-visit for anyone exploring central Switzerland.

A ride to the clouds. From the open-air cable car to the peaceful summit, Stanserhorn offers a perfect blend of adventure and serenity. The views stretch endlessly — it feels like the world is quietly holding its breath.

An amazing experience and a chance to see some brown bears in real life. Great for kids but also adults who miss their childhood. Right next to the river, the park is both scenic and entertaining.

I recently visited the Bear Park in Bern and it was such a delightful experience! Nestled along the scenic banks of the Aare River, the park offers a peaceful and natural environment where bears roam freely in spacious enclosures that mimic their natural habitat. The bears looked healthy and well cared for, and it was heartwarming to see them play, rest, and interact with their surroundings. The park is free to enter, which makes it a wonderful stop for families, nature lovers, or anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing moment in the city. It’s also just a short walk from the old town, so it’s easy to include in a day of sightseeing. Overall, Bear Park is a beautiful blend of nature, education, and conservation. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bern!

It’s quite astonishing to see a bear park right in the middle of the city — a truly unique setting. The enclosure is spacious, well-designed, and blends beautifully with the natural surroundings along the river. You can tell a lot of thought has gone into making it as comfortable as possible for the bears. Still, it’s a reminder that the animals are in captivity, which can feel a bit bittersweet despite the excellent care they receive.

The views are quite beautiful, and the bears are adorable, but I feel terrible they don't have more space to roam around in. They did build a little section in the river so when it is hot, the bears can at least cool down and fish :)

Love that they have a bear refuge near the city. They have so much room to roam. I would suggest adding more signs not to feed the bears or be fined. I saw some stupid kid form a different country throw something down in the bear area and the parents didn’t do anything.

Fantastic river walk along the Aare ends up at Bear Park. Complete with Bears! Stop off to spend some CHF for beers and food up top for great views.

Very nice attraction in the center of the town with a rare chance to see from close range real bears 🐻 very well designed for the wellbeing of the wild animals including also a swimming pool. Definitely a Must visit in the area

We visited the Paul Klee Museum on the recommendation of a friend. Although I enjoyed the experience overall, and the architecture of the museum is truly stunning, I was a bit disappointed by how few of Klee’s actual works were on display during our visit. The layout and building itself are worth seeing, but I didn’t feel it was great value for money at 15 francs per ticket. If you’re a big fan of modern architecture or Klee’s work, it may still be worth a visit—just check what’s currently on exhibition first.

Very little of Paul Klee's artwork is on show. The other exhibitions are junk. The architecture is unremarkable, like an airport. Zentrum Paul Klee in Bern is a museum dedicated to the Swiss artist Paul Klee, housing around 4,000 of his works along with rotating exhibitions. Designed by Renzo Piano and completed in 2005, the building features three undulating steel-and-glass “hills” emerging from a landscaped site.

Beautiful architecture. Loved the exhibits. Well done. There is a small gift shop and a cafe. Great hands on art atelier also available

Fascinating look into the variety of styles developed by Klee. Only a small portion of the museum‘s collection is displayed at one time, so changes are frequent.

Brilliant, but a somewhat smaller collection once inside than the exterior size of the gallery indicates. Great demonstration of the breadth of Klee’s work. Look for the special bus route to get there.

Very pretty area and building design by R.Piano is really magnificent. The exhibitions were quite interesting, however I wish the had more of Klee's work.

Super small collection of Paul Klee paintings - in the basement! Best part is the building itself. Go there, have a look at the architecture and use the CHF 20 for a nice coffee break somewhere else!

Very nice park at the top of Bern city, offering a place to rest and fantastic view. The restaurant is ideal to take a break from a walking tour, having all the city in "the plate". Very nice place for panoramic photos of the city and the river. A must visit

We were not able to have a table by the side, with the amazing view as we had not made a reservation. We came here on a whim. We were given 2 other seating options, 1 which we were warned we would be hit by the sun soon and the other on the other side near the kids playground on the high chair stools and table. The waitress who served us was super busy, there was a large party of 10 or so and lots of other small tables she was serving. She did her best to keep everyone happy. There was a bit of a wait time to order. Once the food came, it tasted good. However due to being summer, wasps started to appear and take over. The toilets are inside, downstairs, they were clean. Upon exiting the building we saw a huge amount of salad plates ready to go just sat on the side. Overall, it was good.

Nice restaurant with a beautiful view of the city. In a hot summer day you will not be able to dine inside because it’s extremely hot and there isn’t AC. We dined at the patio and unfortunately were invaded by dozens of flies as soon as our food was received. We prompted to move everything inside. Service is mediocre.

I loved it. They place is very nice and clean, with outstanding views. Service is great and fast. I took the chicken sandwich for a quick lunch and it was very good.

Great place and truly scenery. Quality service and quality food. Thanks to the Chef and team. I’ll repeat the visit whenever back to Bern. If you choose to come from the down town of Bern; be prepared to pull enough energy to walk up thru the hill, which is a nice little warm up and workout before arriving to the restaurant. Also, it’ll be great to spot coupe or bears from the bridge while heading to the restaurant.

A must stop for a lunch or coffee with view over Bern, amazing. The food was good too, especially the middle eastern mixed platter

Great food, went there for the fondue but turned out fondue only runs trough the winter and spring which we didn’t know. But all was good and amazing view over the city The photo is from winter which we had a coffee and chocolate warm milk, nice

If you're in or neat Lucerne Mount Pilatus is a must see. I took the train from Lucerne to Alpnachstad and then took the cog train up the mountain. I had absolutely perfect weather and the views were stunning. There is a restaurant multiple lookout points and a few trails I hiked. I then took the gondola down the other side of the mountain. Highly recommend!

A definite must do,we had the silver round trip journey and it was well worth it,went up via the cable car and gondola and down by the cog train The views were amazing 👏 also the dragons caves were cool

Beautiful views all around. Be careful about visiting during spring, as parts of the viewing decks may be closed because of snow as late as early june in my experience. The facilities are new and very nice. I would recommend to take the cog rail up, and the gondola down the mountain for the best experience. Worth every penny.

WoW WoW WooooooW An absolute must see! It is a bit expensive to go up but what an insanely gorgeous experience to see lucerne and the alps from here. We took the cog wheel up and the gondola down. INCREDIBLE

My visit to Mount Pilatus was absolutely unforgettable! The entire journey — from the climb up through stunning mountain landscapes to the breathtaking views at the top — felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The combination of thrilling rides, fresh mountain air, and panoramic scenery makes it a must-visit destination in Switzerland. The facilities are well-organized, clean and tourist-friendly. The staff were helpful and very professional, making the experience smooth from start to finish. Whether you take the world’s steepest cogwheel railway or the aerial cableways, the adventure is incredible in every way. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Switzerland — Mount Pilatus truly feels like being on top of the world!

What a spectacular place! If you are visiting Switzerland, spend some hours at Mt. Pilatus. I took the steap railway to the top, but you can also choose to hike.

Mount Pilatus was definitely a highlight of the trip to Switzerland. The weather in mid September was cooperative (it was as warm and sunny on the mountain as in Lucerne). Classic trip as advised: bus, cable cars to the mountain and trip back via cog-wheel train and lake cruise ending in Lucerne. Nature beauty is unreal, hiking a few paths at the top (paved or stairs) is almost a must. Utter surprise how tasty were the local beef hot dogs at the fast food joint on the mountain.

The access from Luzern is convenient. While I went sightseeing, the souvenir shop at the station kindly kept my suitcase for me. The staff there were very friendly and kind, and I ended up buying some souvenirs afterward. The view from the mountain was beautiful. Although it was cloudy at first, the clouds gradually cleared, and I was able to fully enjoy the scenery.

Really nice view!!! I love it! But be careful if you go too late like me and decide to go down with a cable car 🚠 it cost 30€ UNBELIEVABLE

Really enjoyed our ride up the funicular to the top. We then used the restroom on the top, had a quick meal, took a few photos, and then begun our descent. We walked as far as we could on the day down before getting tired and joining a funicular stop down. Along the way there were a few homes that opened as mini stop areas for food. No ticks no bugs, really great to be at a high altitude. Plenty of cows and bells welcoming you along the way.

Incredible views on the the way to the top from Lucerne. Great for a day trip you will enjoy the views without a doubt.

We took a ferry from Luzern (just outside of Luzern train station) and after one hour got off at Vitznau. The mountain railway is just outside the station, and with 30 min it took us to the top of Rigi. After 40 min walk we reached Rigi Kaltabad, from where we took a cable and with 5 min we were down to Weggis, another 15 min walk we got to the ferry station and boarded the ferry back to Luzern. All is covered by Swiss Travel Pass. The view alongside the journey is splendid.

One of my favorite mountain :) You can take the tram all the way up to the near top of the mountain. The tram takes about 10-15 minutes to reach the top.

May 2025: first time visiting the Rigi, Switzerland. Took the train and then the Funicular to the top. Spent some time walking around before heading down to a restaurant for a great Rösti (grated potato). Amazing views from the summit of the lakes and other surrounding mountains.
