A must visit for all people who like walking though nature. This place is amazing and so beautiful. U walk through it and wonder how nature works and see that if u leave nature to itself it does amazing things. People with wheelchair, strollers and people with walking handicap will have a hard time walking though here. Also when u go through the gorge is good to have a flash light, waterproof clothing and hiking booth.

Beautiful experience! The Partnachklamm is very well maintained and easy to follow, with clear paths and a nicely mapped route through the gorge. It’s a relatively easy hike. It can get a bit crowded on weekends, but the scenery more than makes up for it. After exiting the gorge, there are plenty of hiking trails to choose from if you’d like to continue exploring. Highly recommended!

Amazing place, gorgeous. Nature is impressive and the power of water is very obvious here. Some parts are rather dark though, so maybe bring a torch or just use your mobile phone for lighting. The paths are narrow in some parts but seeing that there wasn't too much going on, it was not a problem. I can imagine that it might be bothersome on busy day.

Visiting Partnachklamm – Beautiful, But Overpriced Partnachklamm (Partnach Gorge) is undeniably a natural wonder and a must-see if you're in the Garmisch-Partenkirchen area. The gorge is stunning, with its narrow passageways, towering limestone walls, and the sound of rushing water echoing through the canyon. It's an impressive display of raw natural beauty that photographers and nature-lovers will absolutely appreciate. However, the experience does come with a downside: the entrance fee. At €10 per adult (as of 2025), it feels steep for what is essentially a short, 700-meter walk through the gorge. While the path is well-maintained and safety measures are clearly in place, the high price doesn’t quite match the duration or complexity of the attraction. There's no guided experience included, and facilities are fairly basic. If you're traveling with a family or on a budget, the cost can add up quickly. It would be more reasonable if the ticket included access to nearby trails or some additional interpretive content about the geology and history of the gorge. In short: Pros: Stunning scenery, unique experience, easily accessible. Cons: Short walk, crowded during peak hours, and overpriced for what you get. Worth visiting once, especially if you've never seen a gorge like this before — but be prepared to pay more than you'd expect for a brief nature walk.

It’s a beauty. Observing the gorge and the surrounding was a very nice adventure. Obviously it might get a bit crowded especially on the weekends but the beauty wouldn’t allow anything to interfere. There is also a very nice hike route right after the gorge. Totally recommend.

Amazing experience walking along the catwalk and carved path through this glacial slot canyon! The water is clear and tinted ice-blue, rushing, and slicing through space that seems only a few feet wide, while you walk through cavernous tunnels and under overhangs. And then, coming out the other side, you get to walk back above and over it all! What a fun hike!! Just be prepared for some steep walking with good shoes, water, and a flashlight for those dark sections!

Very beautiful gorge. Absolutely worth the entry price. Expect to get some drops of water as you go. It was pretty busy on a Friday morning. The walk above the gorge on the way back is really picturesque too.

Visited in the autumn season — no snow, but the view was absolutely stunning! 🍁 The surrounding mountains and lakes looked breathtaking in golden shades. The cable car ride was smooth and offered amazing panoramic views. Even without snow, Zugspitze felt peaceful and majestic.

Very cool, highly recommend even if the mountain is covered in clouds up top. If that’s the case it would be nice if the ticket was discounted, but rain or shine it’s 75€ per person. There’s a restaurant & bar up there as well

Beautiful view, great experience as tourists. there is another cable that takes you to the skiing part it is on the other side of the mountain. car park just outside the cable station. restaurants and shop accessible restrooms very clean. there are 2 options to get up/down to Zugspitze, cable or train. it is 75€ 2 ways on the cable I felt terrible pressure going down so mabe it is better to take the train down.

Great place to visit if you want to experience high altitudes without actual climbing. Fast transfer by the cablecar, or more slow ascent by cogwheel train. The building at the summit has multiple floors and observation desks, you can cross to the Austrian side. There are restaurants on both sides. You can also take another cable car to the other side and play in the snow, even in August. Breathtaking views. Go early in the day to beat the clouds. There is also a small church. The bravest ones can climb the actual summit with the cross. Plan to spend at least a couple of hours and bring a sweater. Even in August.

The Zugspitze is the largest mountain of the Germany situated in the range of Alps Mountain, located on the scenic border between Germany and Austria, is an unforgettable experience and a must do especially for the fully snow covered peak and the thrill of the ascent. I highly recommend the cable car over the cogwheel train for the most breathtaking views, though both are covered in the approximately €75 combined ticket (which includes skiing access). We started by riding straight to the summit for a stunning, almost indescribable panorama, witnessing the sunset from the peak was a truly magical moment. We then descended to the lower Zugspitzplatt where the vast snow fields feel like a different universe perfect for playing in the snow and skiing. The ample parking, the presence of helpful mountain volunteers, and the organized operation make it a safe and enjoyable trip. Tip: Be sure to wear appropriate gear, especially warmers and gloves, and note that the last descent is strictly enforced, so plan to be back on the train or cable car around 4:30 PM. A truly wonderful and perfect day trip!

You can take the train to the mountain, from there you can take a cable car to the top. This was one of the greatest experiences we had it was so much fun going to the top. When you reach the top there’s snow everywhere and free sleds you can take and have some fun like you were a child. It’s really beautiful and worth every cent. There’s a restaurant on the top where you can enjoy a beer the good was also great

Zugspitze was amazing! The views were absolutely stunning and the mountain lounge was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery. The cheesecake wasn’t the best, but honestly, the view made up for it.

Obergurgl is a stunning alpine village offering excellent skiing, breathtaking views, and a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. Great snow reliability, modern lifts, and charming hotels make it a top winter getaway in the Austrian Alps. Near the end of season a lot of the bars and restaurants shut but it still has a nice feel about it.

Had a great experience here! Outstanding views, very good quality of slopes and overall infrastructure. I highly recommend it!

Awesome enormous ski area with breathtaking Tyrolean views. Great grooming. Although there were lots of people the last week in February when we were there, the lifts handle the crowds and the slopes were decently uncongested. Just gorgeous.

Fantastic ski area. Great for beginners. Hochgurgl was great. Buses good and people friendly. Will return.

Beautiful, awesome ski runs, great early season snow conditions with amazing views

If you're looking for the ultimate winter escape, look no further than Obergurgl! This ski resort in March is nothing short of perfection—think powdery snow, crisp mountain air, and sunshine that makes you want to ski all day long. The snow quality? Top-notch. It's like skiing on marshmallows (but way cooler!). The slopes are impeccably maintained, offering something for everyone, from beginners to seasoned pros. Not to mention, the après-ski vibes are just as good as the skiing—delicious food on the slopes and cozy accommodations that make you feel right at home. It's the kind of place where you can’t help but smile with every turn. If you're not here yet, what are you waiting for? Get ready to make your friends jealous with your epic photos and unforgettable memories!

Nice weather and great ski piste

This hotel and spa is very nice. The staff is absolutely amazing. They are friendly, fast and they all speak English, which was helpful for me and my group. The rooms are a good size and the showers are big too. Some rooms have a fireplace in them as well. The thermal pools and the spa 3000 are so relaxing. The whole place is in the apps and far enough away from town to be quiet but close enough to be accessible. The hotel offers hikes and skiing and bike trail trips for a small additional fee.

We stayed for two nights, and honestly, everything was spectacular. The room, the balcony with its view of the mountains and cows, everything was perfectly heated. The spa area was excellent — super peaceful and relaxing. A really lovely experience! The only thing that could have been better is if the outdoor pools had different temperatures, as they were all the same. Breakfast was my favorite part. There’s a wide variety and everything was delicious! The dinners were also very good. I should mention that I forgot my orthopedic pillow at the hotel and asked them to send it to my home since I’m not from Austria. They arranged the shipment at my expense, and within two days I had the pillow at home. So, the service is more than a 10 for me. Thank you so much for paying attention to every detail.

Excellent stay. A lot to discover inside and outside. Great valley for hiking and biking. Inside: great rooms, excellent food. Good quality of SPA treatments, much better than elsewhere. Reception staff can be more into the details, it took a while to get detailed invoice, and only one person knew how to do it. Highly recommended place and we will definitely come back

Thank you to all the team at aqua dome for making our stay so wonderful. From the lovely people at reception who greeted us with drinks to the people at massage and spa who keep the place running. You are helping people like us have a better life experience and get rid for a few days of our stress. You are literally changing lives not just providing a service. The team is great the food is amazing and the whole place runs on goodness and love thanks 🙏

Boyfriend and I booked the evening Deluxe ticket and thought 4 hours exploring the thermal spa, sauna and spa3000 would be enough but we loved it so much we returned the next day! We bought a full day ticket for general spa and sauna which included free tea and water, bathrobe and towels and free parking. What a day! And a big shout out to Bobby and Ben who work in the restaurant/bar ⭐

The building of Aqua dome is a peace of art on it self . And the location is unique in the narrow valley when you are in the baths outside you have the outstanding few on the big and high mountains around you . The exterior and interior have a amazing architecture design. The decoration inside is beautiful and the furniture is beautiful and very ergonomic and comfortable. you can see that everything about the Aqua dome is intelligent thought through and with care . The baths and saunas also very beautiful and every part have its unique characteristics. The food is great and affordable. I have taken de vacation day arrangement which was very enjoyable with access to the private areas. This arrangement i can recommend.

We stayed as two couples with two toddlers, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! Everything in the hotel feels new, clean, and thoughtfully designed – spacious rooms, very comfortable beds, and a relaxing atmosphere. There are over 10 different pools, each with its own character – saltwater, sulfur, warm, and even a cold pool. The spa area is fantastic, with both dry and wet saunas, and a beautiful adults-only zone that’s peaceful and quiet. The food was excellent – both breakfast and dinner were outstanding, with a great mix of buffet and à la carte dishes, and delicious desserts served to the table. The mountain views are breathtaking, and the kids loved the dedicated children’s pools with small slides and fountains, as well as the indoor play area. Overall, it was a perfect stay – truly the best hotel we’ve ever been to! The only downside was that after check-out at 11:00, access to the spa area was no longer allowed, and we paid extra charge for it We can’t wait to come back!

The castle location is so beautiful. It is a treat for the sight just to hike towards the castle that is surrounded by bavarian alps. The guided tour, on the other hand is rather short (only 30min). The rooms are accessible only by lots of stairs and no photography is allowed. Only 14 castle rooms were furnished. Furthermore during our visit the cafe was also closed. This was a bummer since the ticket is so expensive for 23euros per person. Furthermore even though young kids are allowed inside the castle for free they need their own ticket and it can't be booked online. The ticket we got got our toddler from the information booth did not have a scan code and my daughter could not get inside so i had to run to fund security to let her inside. The security guide solved the issue quickly though. The point is that the ticket handling system must be more organized and improved upon. On the other hand, the cave room, singers room and the balcony were breath taking so the hassle was kind of worth it. The ticket price should be reduced though. I would say overall it was a very pleasant experience.

A real-life Disney castle — but truly so much more than that! ✨ I still couldn’t get enough of this place. Every corner feels like stepping into a fairytale. The guided tour is a must — make sure to book it early, as tickets sell out fast. No photos are allowed inside, but it’s absolutely worth it. Each room reflects incredible richness, elegance, and the artistic soul of King Ludwig II — his passion for theatre, music, and beauty shines through every detail. It’s about a 20-minute walk uphill from the ticket area, but they also offer bus services (check the timings!) and horse-drawn carriage rides for a more scenic way up. The path is a bit steep, but once you reach the top, the view and the castle itself make every step worth it. King Ludwig II was truly a dreamer — and walking through his creation feels like walking inside his imagination. Go see it — it’s magical, surreal, and simply unforgettable. 🌄💙

The castle is located in a beautiful setting. Tickets may be bought online or in person (reservation recommended for peak season). There’s free shuttle from downtown Füssen to the ticket center. There’s plenty of paid parking. To get up to the castle you may hire a chariot or walk up for 30-40 minutes. The scenery is beautiful and it is worth the walk. During summer the path is shaded by the threes. Inside the castle there’s plenty of stairs to go up. I advise looking up if it is wheelchair accessible.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5-Star Review – Neuschwanstein Castle Parking at Platz 4 is very spacious and costs €12 for 6 hours, conveniently located right next to where you catch the bus up to the castle. The bus fare is €5 per adult round trip, and it’s a smooth ride with beautiful scenery along the way. At the top, the area is clear and open, perfect for walking or biking with stunning views all around. The trails are beautiful, offering several photo spots and breathtaking panoramas of the castle and the valley below. There’s also a small snack and souvenir shop at the top with plenty of space and clean bathrooms, making it an easy and comfortable stop before or after exploring. Overall, Neuschwanstein Castle is a magical experience — well worth the visit and the walk. The scenery alone makes it unforgettable!

When near Fussen and Schwangau Neuschwanstein Castle is a must. A beautiful 40 minute uphill walk will bring you there. You can take a shuttle or horse and buggy but the walk is doable if you like and are used to walking/hiking. We did not pay to go in but got good photos from many vantage points outside.

You won't regret visiting here. It's beautiful on the outside but absolutely gorgeous on the inside. If you have trouble walking, definitely take the horse carriage up and/or down (costs money). The walk down is much easier. They have the cutest store after the tour and don't forget to check out the view outside near the bathrooms before leaving. You will not regret it!!

Absolutely breathtaking and immersive. The hike up is beautiful and you can take your time just enjoying the scenery. Plenty of photo opportunities outside of the castle, but no pictures inside until you get to the cafe.

Definitely a must see castle. The grounds and the views are amazing. Unfortunately you cannot take photos of the interior. But nonetheless the interior doesn't disappoint either. I recommend that you get your ticket and tour time set up online. It definitely makes things easier. There are a few restaurants around the castle that have great food. Plus souvenir shoppes too.

Just a short 30-minute walk from the world-famous Neuschwanstein lies Schloss Hohenschwangau, and we can genuinely recommend adding it to your visit. While Neuschwanstein often gets most of the attention, Hohenschwangau has a charm and authenticity all of its own. Set against rolling hills, peaceful forests, and a beautiful lake, the castle feels more intimate and lived-in, offering a fascinating contrast to King Ludwig II’s fairytale creation. Tickets can be bought in advance—something we recommend, especially during busier months—and guided tours are offered in several languages. The tour provides wonderful insight into the history of the Bavarian royal family and the important role this castle played in Ludwig’s childhood. Many rooms remain furnished just as they were, which makes the visit feel historically rich and surprisingly personal. Even if you decide not to join a tour, the area around Schloss Hohenschwangau is perfect for a leisurely stroll. The paths are easy to navigate, and the views of the lake and surrounding mountains are incredibly beautiful. It’s a calm and charming place to unwind, especially after the more intense and crowded experience of Neuschwanstein. Overall, we found Schloss Hohenschwangau to be a beautiful and worthwhile addition to the day—less crowded, full of history, and surrounded by stunning scenery. If you’re already in the area, it’s absolutely worth visiting both castles to get the full experience of this remarkable region.

Nice hike up, but not too difficult. The audio guide was really informative and the castle was beautiful. Such a great place to visit!

I visited a lot of Ludwig’s castles and this one isn’t the most spectacular per se but it is a must see specially if you’re interested in his history. This is where he grew up and where his parents lived. The castle has a lot of history that you can learn during your visit. The visit is made with a guide but you have an audio guide in your own language during the tour. It is activated in each room by the guide and lasts a few minutes. Our tour guide was young lady with dark hair. I don’t remember her name but she was one of the best guides I’ve encountered in a museum. She was lovely, smiling, added additional informations during our visit and was gentle. We had a great time visiting the castle thanks to her. You can also visit the gardens for free if you want but you have to book a ticket to see the inside. Also up here you get a nice view over the Neuschwanstein.

Overall, visiting Hohenschwangau Castle is one of the must do things for any tourist in the area. Personally my visit was both meaningful and enjoyable. The scenery was beautiful, the history fascinating and the atmosphere peaceful. It offered a valuable look into the roots of Ludwig II’s life and imagination, making it a visit worth remembering. On a side note, it’s recommended to book in advance, park your car in parking number 4 and keep in mind that only guided tours are offered inside as well as that picture and videos aren’t allowed.

Even tough it's not probably as nice as Neuschwanstein I really enjoyed being inside and especially a look through the window at the end of the tour. Around the castle there are food stands where you can enjoy a hot chilly and some sausage with drinks.

I visited the yellow castle since the smaller white one was sold out. I was blown away by how amazing the artwork is within. It's unfortunate that pictures aren't allowed inside considering how inspiring the story was. I'd suggest that more people book the yellow castle to see and learn about the old rulers.

My first visit to Italian; South Tyrol. This place is just 45 minutes from Austria. The lake is skyblue and the scenary is amazing, but that day it was a strong cold wind outside, you couldn't spend long there. Take a coat and a hat. The church is still there, from 1950 under the water. Of course another one is built nearby in the village.

Went in late December and the lake was frozen! Not sure hard enough to walk on, but still, looked very cool. The church tower of course is the main sight. There is a walking path around at least one side of the lake. Parking at various sites, paid. Recommend!

Reschensee, nestled in the picturesque South Tyrol region of northern Italy, offers a captivating blend of history and natural beauty. The submerged church tower emerging from the tranquil waters creates a hauntingly beautiful scene, drawing visitors from far and wide. Surrounded by majestic mountains, the lake is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering opportunities for hiking, cycling, and water sports. Its serene ambiance and unique attractions make it a must-visit destination for those seeking a memorable experience in the Italian Alps.

This location is a hidden gem, featured in the Netflix original "Curon". The Curon Venosta bell tower is partially submerged in the lake and there is a walkable trail around it through the lake! The location is easily accessible from Tirol, Austria via highway (i.e. from Landeck) via Reschen Pass and from Switzerland or Italy in South. Passo Stelvio and Umbrail Pass, highest roads in Italy and Switzerland are not too far a drive from here.

Beautiful lake surrounded with mountains. A lot of hiking options and also (most remarkable for me!) - possibility for snow-kiting in winter when lake is covered with thick ice. Season is around late January - early March, but depends on ice coverage and winds. Alternatively smaller lake nearby can be frozen earlier. Rents and kite-schools are also available.

Lake Resia is the biggest lake of South Tyrol and an artificial reservoir. Up to the year 1950, there were three lakes in this area: Lake Resia, Lake Curon and Lake San Valentino alla Muta. When the reservoir was dammed after the construction of the dam wall (1947-1949), the locality of Curon Venosta as well as much of Resia were flooded and destroyed. The only remnant of old Curon is the steeple, which still towers out of the waters and is nowadays a historical landmark.

A very beautiful place with beautiful sea. You should really visit!

Fabulous ski resort. They have a few large gondolas and about 50 lifts altogether. Up on the mountain you can find many places to eat and drink. Superb slopes, mostly groomed very nicely. Lockers are available at the lower lift but also at the mountain.

Stunning views up and down the mountain. The cable car was smooth and in good condition

Great cable car service. Ran smoothly. No queues. Could exit at the Middle Station (lake walks, archery and play area - toilets at cable car station. Walk of Lyrics back down to the base station in Ischgl) or stay on until Idalp where there was a restaurant, shop and another play area. Another series of chair lifts and a twin liner cable car can take you on into Samnaun in Switzerland.

There are many slopes at Ischgl, making it an interesting place to ski, I especially like those steep runs. It's hard to get bored there.

Good ski resort, we had a lot of fun there. We systematically had a large queue in the valley in the morning though, as the resort has very few entry points for its size.

Silvretta in Ischgl is absolutely amazing. So many trams, chairlifts, and runs that one can ski for a week. The views are amazing and snow is perfect. We loved the lodges and restaurants on the mountain. The food quality and selection was great. The Après Ski in Ischgl was phenomenal. Lots of places to eat and celebrate an awesome day on the mountain. We had a wonderful time here with memories for a lifetime.

One of the best ski resorts in Australia/Switzerland/Germany area. The resort is quite broad and you can spend 1 week literally only with ski or snowboarding. The ski area enters into Switzerland as well and you can find tax free shops! But be careful for the tax free route because the last part is flat and it could take a long time for snowboarders to arrive at the gondola. As that gondola is not frequent (once in 10-15 mins) there is possibility that you cannot come back to the area you want to be back. Therefore clear understanding of the map and planning is very important to avoid paying money for expensive taxies and wasting time. Great view and great course with wide variety. Also nice snowpark is available for those like to play in them. I also recommend to go to a pizzaria in the resort. They offer very good pizza for a lunch break.

This is an incredible place to visit. The walk in the gorge where you can see how high the water has been and how it cuts into the walls. Look up for some giant boulders caught above the gorge

This is a fantastic gorge to be explored by everybody. The pathway is broad enough to have two big guys walk abreast. There are no stairs or steps until the exit, and it makes sense to transverse the gorge twice to see it from two sides. The entire path within the gorge is nicely surfaced with concrete and very sturdy so slips are unlikely. On weekends, thousands of people visit, so buying a ticket online is recommended.

Paid 4 euros for the parking and about 7 to go in. You can see the place is being taken care of for the entrance price and the small hike is beautiful. I do recommend doing it a bit early though (around 10 AM was perfect for us), because it can become quite crowded.

Breitachklamm is an absolutely stunning natural wonder and a must-visit for anyone who loves hiking or simply enjoying the outdoors. The walking trails through the gorge are well-maintained and offer incredible views of the rushing stream below. You can feel the power of the water as it cascades through the narrow rock walls, creating a dramatic and refreshing atmosphere. The area around the stream is peaceful and beautifully green, with plenty of spots to stop, take photos, or just admire the scenery. Whether you’re looking for a short, easy walk or a longer hike connecting to nearby trails, Breitachklamm offers a perfect blend of adventure and tranquility. Word of caution - Be careful in some of the rocky areas, as the ceilings can be low and it’s easy to bump your head. Good shoes and a bit of caution make the walk much more enjoyable! Tickets cost around €7.50 and can be purchased conveniently at the reception counter or online in advance.

Beautiful river and waterfalls, but… Definitely be aware it’s a super touristy place. If you’re going with a big dog: the paths are very small and there’s people turning around and going back. Also there’s a rather paw unfriendly stair with gauze you have to climb if you follow the red route. 😬 I didn’t really enjoy visiting this place because it was crowded, just too many people constantly, everywhere. The staff at the restaurant at the entrance were friendly and the food was good! Nonetheless, it’s definitely an unique place.

Highly recommend. One of the most beautiful and gorgeous Gorges you will ever see. If you do it when it’s rainy it’s even more majestic. Rain makes the waterfall and experience more magical. 10/10 must do.

Nice gorge to go for a walk. I recommend coming very early since it gets really busy during the day.(Didn't forget to check the opening hours). With the ticket you can walk the gorge in both directions. So you can exit the gorge at the top and continue along the river and come back later to go back to the parking lot. I highly recommend continuing after the gorge and visiting one of the Hintere Engere Alpe (mountain restaurant).

Love this place! From Zürich its super easily accessible - its a little less than 2 hours from Zürich HB to Klosters Platz. As soon as you exit the train, across the street is a rental place where you can rent your gear. Literally next to the rental place is the gondola entrance. If you didnt buy your ticket online, you can buy it at the gondola entrance (can only pay with card - no cash is accepted). Mid morning its a bit of chaos there as its just one door for access to the ticket box and gondola entrance. I would recommend arriving no later than 8.30-9.00 if you dont want to queue. Even with a queue, you can get to the ski runs in 30 min - 1 hour, it isnt that bad of a wait. Note, that there is a second gondola to take after the first. The runs are really great - not too easy but not too difficult either. There is one run that takes you through the forest and all the way down to next to the 1st gondola. This is where the apres ski is. For the apres ski, definitely arrive a bit earlier than run closure if you want to get a seat inside (there is live music). If you cannot grab a place inside, they sell drinks out of a little car outside and there are a few places to stand/sit as well. After apres ski, its a quick walk across a bridge to the train station and rental return.

Got charged for cleaning fees although no one cleaned the rooms throughout my stay, the apartment was cleaned by us prior to checking out in accordance to the policy told to us by the receptionist. However, two wrapped up trash bags were left due to the trash cans being full and we informed the receptionist of this . The receptionist made us go back to the rooms after checking out to remove the trash bags or else an extra fee would be charged (on top of the cleaning fee we already paid per apartment as we had more than one apartment). There is nothing relaxing about this resort and the customer service in the reception makes matters worse . Overall should have saved my money, time , and peace of mind.

My first Swiss ski experience and absolutely loved it! Not surprising, everything worked perfectly smoothly, lifts, ski rent shop, buying ski pass online. There wasn't so much snow but all slopes were open nevertheless. We went there on a gorgeous Sunday and did over 70km of slopes. The ski pass is a bit pricey but totally worth it.

Lovely skiing spot. It would be very nice if they add lift schedule to their website so that you can check it while you are skiing to ensure that you aren't missing the last lift ride. Currently the list schedule is available in text format with location names but you have no idea what those names mean you obviously look at the map and the schedule of the lifts must be available on the map, which should provide the schedule for both directions of the lift not just one. For example, last main train goes down at 17:00 but the website schedule shows 16:00 - but this is the ride up and is irrelevant for people who are already up in the mountains. In result you have to finish you ski day one hour earlier which is frustrating and not the experience you expect at the ski resort ...

Even though I don't ski, the views from the top are amazing! If you travel by train your stop is Davos Dorf. Once there you walk about 5-10 minutes and then you have reached your destination. To go all the way to the top you change trams but it won't take that long to reach the top. Make sure to visit the village afterwards!

Spend an amazing day skiing on accessible blue tracks, since I am a beginner! A beautiful resort with lots of tracks for every skill sort! Found an amazing restaurant in me middle of track 15, which had an amazing view, and delicious food with vegetarian options! Had an amazing day there!

The best ski resort! Skiing here since 2012 and not bored! Not good for very begginers, but if you are ok on red slopes you should come here to practice. Only few Tbars left, which you can avoid, if you come from Klosters side, ski down to the double chair lift, or go forward to the carpet lift, and then go on higher.. i like that first slopes are done so that you can warm up well, and higher you ski,you can find steeper places. There are many slopes that are wide and straight, where you can practice with different level skiers. There is fun slope that goes parallel blue slope nr15. Some restaurants (one i know for sure) that do not accept credit cards, make sure to have some cash, just in case. I like Parsenn that its in the valley and you can ski several directions of the mountain, towards Davos,Klosters or Saas,Küblis.. on Davos side, there are two fun places: Race slope, where you can get the video of your skiing after you register your ski card, and the slope where you go for max.speed(there's speedometer) Even if you dont want to ski black route, you can take the lift all the way up to see an incredible view of the area, eat in that restaurant and go back with the lift.. totally reccomended. One more thing.. there is a "secret" slope(Seetäli...sssshhhh dont tell to anyone,its our secret;) ), from which you can spot the family of mountain goats(famous Steinbock) in order to earn that experience, you must take a Tbar up ;) dont forget the binoculars if you want to see them even better, but even without you can see them usually. I wish you to have a great ride on Parsenn!!!

You have to distinguish between the creative aspects of the Bregenzer Festspiele and the guest experience. The first is worthy of its reputation, the latter is amateurish. The stage, the singing, the costumes, the location are all beyond criticism. I've been four times and, even as someone with no interest in opera, the performance has always been a rewarding experience. Your enjoyment thereof is however undermined by neglected basics: the lack of toilets is laughable (allow 20 minutes of queueing for the gents); the hard, narrow plastic seats hurt within 45 minutes; the view is always seriously obstructed because the raking is too flat. By far the biggest flaw is the audio: it is quiet and unclear. The warning about phone use is loud and clear, but then the dialog/singing is indiscernible. Most guests are left reading the subtitles, from which random sentences are missing. Comparable outdoor stages better understand that what happens on stage is only part of the experience. So the Bregenzer Festspiele is a worthwhile experience, if you have realistic expectations - this is not simply a pleasurable night at the theater.

I am visiting the festival next once every two years for the last 12 years and have never been disappointed. I would recommend to buy premium tickets that include a seat inside in case of the opera having to be moved due to bad weather. Also arriving early and exploring Bregenz beforehand is a good idea as Bregenz alone is worth a visit.

We visited “The Freischütz” by Carl Maria von Weber, which is considered a key work of the German romantic opera. We can highly recommend it: amazing, very elaborate decorations built on the lake, great music and singing, large cast, lots of special effects and overall an outstanding performance. The story takes place in a rural German village. Max, a young forester, must win a shooting contest to marry Agathe, the daughter of the head forester, Kuno. However, Max has lost his confidence after a series of failures. In desperation, he turns to Kaspar, another forester who has secretly made a pact with dark forces. Kaspar convinces Max to cast "magic bullets" in the haunted Wolf’s Glen at midnight. These bullets are supposed to never miss their target, but the last bullet is controlled by the devil. At the contest, Max fires his final bullet at a target meant for the competition — but the bullet, influenced by evil, instead aims at Agathe. Miraculously, she is saved by a sacred wreath she wears, and Kaspar is struck down instead. In the end, Max confesses his actions. Rather than being punished severely, he is given a year to prove his worth, after which he may marry Agathe. The opera blends elements of folklore, supernatural horror, love, and redemption, and is known for its vivid atmosphere, especially the eerie Wolf’s Glen scene.

A beautiful place and a fantastic venue, I am here most years for the opera and it never fails to enchant me. It's a very special place and a beautiful lake to go with, I would visit every year and every year again. Food is superb, try the local beer Moran, wine is good value and very tasty, you should come to Bregenz and have a fantastic time, 2 to 3 days is perfect. Enjoy

This has been on my bucket list since I found out about an amphitheater on Lake Constanz! It did not disappoint! Performance: We saw "Der Freischütz" (The Marksman) by Carl Maria von Weber. While it was in German, the story was easy to follow, except perhaps the ending, which was unexpected for me. The actors were amazing, especially when working in a stage with water throughout. Staging: The star of the show! A stage built on a lake with a lake on it. Dilapidated buildings illustrate the young Agathe's desperation to go anywhere else. The staging added to the morose nature of the setting. The use of fire and water defines the infernal struggle going on with Max as he tries to win Agathe's hand. Seating: Stage on the lake, seating on the land. It still had an intimate feeling with 7,000 seats. With the slope of the seating, there shouldn't have been a bad sight line. Although it can be a little intimidating for some. Therefore, if you are uncomfortable with height, choose seats in the lower rows. Another tip would be to bring a pad for your seat. Sitting for two or more hours on weather-resistant plastic seats can be uncomfortable. Theater: The theater was nicely laid out. The restrooms are clean. The lobby is well designed with easy access to amenities. The after show bars provided a nice area to discuss the show. It included special drinks for the festival! I was more than satisfied with my visit and enjoyed it immensely!

It is so impressive, had Goosebumps through the entire show, it surprised me in every way. I have been to many operas, this is a total different game. Go, just book it, you will not regret it. Also perfect for a surprise romantic weekend away.

Simply amazing, no other words for the experience

this is one of the must visit place when in Friedrichshafen. there are so many exhibits for aviation and it was a spacious and huge museum to move around. Hardly any quene for each exhibit. however i find very limited merchandise at the souvenior shop and hope that they could duplicate the displayed medal into magnets in the future.

Awesome and completely unexpected visit. I was in the area for work and came across this museum in the late afternoon. Tickets were disconted as there want much time left open but we got around and learned a lot about these awesome airships! Really informative museum and well worth a visit. I expect this is a huge draw after going.

Nice museum for adults. Interesting history and nice view into the zappelin and the accommodations for passengers. For children ( 12 and 11) who do not speak German and are not very fluent in English, there was not a lot to do. So this was a quick visit.

The museum is certainly interesting. Although I expected more. There is a feeling that some exhibitions were created just to fill empty space. The exhibition is very strangely organized. It is difficult to immerse yourself in the topic because everything is simply scattered thematically.

Very nice museum. Plenty of things to see!! It gets a little busy in the weekends but it is not a problem, you can still enjoy it!!

Interesting, did not know they made cars. The quality was extraordinary. This is a model known as the Zeppelin Gaylord. Check out the interior.

Sehr gut!! Excellent presentation of this fascinating time in Aviation history. Highly recommend.

👍

Excellent casino and very friendly staff.

(Translated by Google) Castel Casino in Vaduz is a good casino: The staff was friendly and nice. After the check-in process, I was able to go to the machine on the ground floor. (I didn't visit the first floor with live games). At first I changed a few coins without any problems. (However, the euro/franc exchange rate here is fixed and not very good). Afterwards I went to the bar, ordered a sandwich and a drink 🍸 and went to the machines. Things were good. The sandwich was brought to me. Top! The machines won that evening. But this is a matter of luck and has no influence on the rating. (Original) Castel Casino in Vaduz ist ein gutes Casino: Das Personal war freundlich und nett.

It was amazing experience for us. We went from St. Moritz to Tirano. The train has panorama windows and the driving is very comfortable and gentle. The views are breathtaking. I highly recommend everyone to try Bernina express.

Great experience. From chur to Tirano take the Right side for more view. Both sides are great but the major attributes can be appreciated at the right side (from Chir to Tirano). Something that I don't know was that they offer a gift (a mini carrier with chocolate hearts and a beverage tea).

Absolutely incredible! No words to describe the beauty of Alps throughout the journey from Chur to Tirano. This Bernina express is unique and definitely a must try lifetime experience.

This was the best train journey I’ve ever experienced. I went in first class but space and seats are probably the only difference between the two classes. The views are just stunning! You go over mountains, fields, glaciers I could just keep naming things. Around the end (if you are going from Tirano to St Moritz) you can get off at the highest point for pictures and a coffee. The staff are super friendly and always try to make your journey pleasant. This exhilarating ride takes about two and a half hours (if you again are going from Tirano to St Moritz). I highly recommend going on the right side as you get more amazing panoramic views though both sides are great. It is best if you book in advance although upgrades are sometimes available on the day. 5 stars.

Beautiful experience! I traveled today in 1st class from Chur to Tirano — it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The landscapes were breathtaking, the train was clean and comfortable, and the atmosphere very peaceful. However, the Wi-Fi link didn’t work, and unfortunately the toilet in 1st class was out of order, which was a bit disappointing for such a premium journey. Other than that, everything was lovely — I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to enjoy one of the most scenic train rides in Europe.

We travel to Milan for our vacation, but noticed that there is such a cool train track, Bernina Express. So we decided to try booking the entire trip via Klook. This turned out to be the best decision we made in this trip. The mountainous and forest view along the train route is so beautiful, breathtaking and stunning. Please see the photos and vedios I uploaded. Don’t think too much, just book and go. There are many ways to do this, please look up more detail in Google or Youtube. Highly recommend to go. It’s a MUST in your life time.

One of the best trip we've ever made, a must for any couple despite it was far from our hotel (3 hiur to reach it) but it worth ever minute. On time, good value for money and refreshing. Not easy to book online, you should buy the ticket, then "separately" the seat !

If you're here in St Gallen, this place is an absolute must-visit. For 18 CHF, you get access to the library, the vaulted cellar and an exhibition space. Having said that, the library is still the star attraction. Before entering the library, you will need to put on slippers over your shoes. There doesn't seem to be any time limit to stay in the library, so you can always wait till the library empties out to catch great photos of the library. In particular, I loved the look of the book cases, but I was a little weirded out by the display of a mummy in the corner, which we cannot photograph.

We walked in around one hour before closing and therefore we could only visit the library. You would need to put on cotton-made shoeson top of your own shoes to prevent damages to the wooden floor. The library itself is indeed stunning. Although I could not read any of the books but the decor, the drawings, and all of the details are just delightful to see. A dead mummy is placed inside the library. From what I could tell it is still preserved in good conditions; but if you are scared you could always skip that corner of the library.

Mere words cannot describe this library, the museum, and the adjacent church. It is absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. You’re looking at books that are 500 years old, as a geographer I loved the globe from 1530, documents from Charlemagne, and much more. Danke für alles !

I imagine every visitor's dream is to be alone in this library for a few hours, randomly picking books from unlocked shelves. It's a small room that takes you back in time offering filmesque experience that can partially be spoiled with too many visitors inside. Maybe a suggestion for the library to either limit time of visit or the number of visitors per group for better experience.

Very beautiful library room. Surely worth a visit when you‘re already in St. Gallen. I was there on a weekday with very few visitors in the afternoon so I had no queues and at one point the rooms were almost empty. You have to wear slippers on your shoes, which they provide, but it is well worth preserving such a beautiful room. If you have a Raiffeisen Card, you get the entry to three locations for free, which is nice.

Wow. Wow. Wow. You don't have to be a history buff to enjoy every aspect of this stunning time capsule. The architecture alone was something I had never seen before. Truly a must-see when in Switzerland.

One of the most beautiful libraries I have visited so far. Library in Porto is also beautiful but this library in St Gallen has far less visitors so you are really able to appreciate the details of it's beauty.

the island is very pretty and has a lot to offer, many different kinds of nature sections and lots of things for kids around/ food places etc but was quite expensive (especially because i didn’t have long to stay which is not an issue of the place) but i could see how it could be kind of worth it as a whole day activity

The island is incredibly beautiful — everything is in bloom and so well maintained! However, we were really disappointed to find out (a bit too late) that the butterfly house has different opening hours from the rest of the park. We arrived just 10 minutes after it closed and sadly missed it. It would be great if the timing was clearer on the map or signs.

One of the most beautiful gardens in Germany. You need at least 4 hours. The entrance fee is approximately 25 euros, but it is worth i

Perfect place for nature and flower lovers. Every season has its own color and the blooming plants. Old trees like Tilia over 100 years old. Beautiful views and walking aleys. Next time, I would bring some lunch and enjoy a picnic.

A truly spectacular island of history and beauty. Definitely worth the journey.

Great place to visit if in Konstanz. Check out the butterfly orangery and see butterflies with clear wings.

I can bet it is the most beautiful places I have visited. For the tulips, instead of visiting Keukenhof, this is a better place. Surrounded by nature, play gyms for kids, animals where kids can even feed the goats was a holistic experience. We went with our 2months old baby and it was quite smooth. There were ramps everywhere. Accessibility was not a challenge. The tulips were beautiful. There were other flower exhibitions as well indoors. A must visit for everyone!!!!! The connectivity via ships is also very smooth and timely. We went from Meersberg to Mainau.

Pretty cute aquarium mostly designed for children, with a sad 46 year old Carp and sea turtle. The natural history exhibits are informative. And you can walk across the Swiss border for a snack along the shore.

Nice place to visit with the kids. It's not the biggest aquarium but nicely put together and interesting. The tanks were nicely decorated as well. Parking was a bit crowded but not very expensive.

Buy tickets before. Too crowded, even though they work with time slots. Very good for small kids, not for adults. The app with animal recognition doesn't work well. It's announced as in German and in English, but only German is available in the app. Bistro is good! All text is only in German!

Disappointing. It is so overpriced for the variety of species you can see there. There is nothing special at all. It’s so small and that I really couldnt believe that was all. Doesn’t make sense to drive if you live far away. And definitely not worth the price you pay. You can visit much better places for this price.

If you are with little kids, it's the perfect place to spent a couple of hours.

perfectly presented aquariums, large variety of species, interesting lecture about penguins, small museum about nature

I had an okay experience at the aquarium. While there were lots of fish to see, I felt bad for the penguins because their space seemed quite small. It was also pretty loud with so many people around, which made it a bit uncomfortable. Overall, it was nice to see the variety of marine life, but I wish the conditions for the animals were better.

Amazing Day In an Incredible Museum On a rare day when my children were off school (but all other schools were open) we visited Technorama and had an amazing day. There were only a few visitors, but enough to seem alive and the weather was perfect for visiting the outside area. The museum itself is so well made and organized. The number of engaging exhibits and well-done live shows/demonstrations will keep people of all ages busy all day. Special recognition goes to the restaurant staff for the freshly made food and the extremely friendly interaction during our lunch. We waited years for the children to be old enough to appreciate the museum - we won't wait so long before our next visit.

It’s so big, hours of entertainment for the kids in all different science categories with hand on experiment exhibits. There’s also a restaurant on site, plus an outdoor area with more exhibits. We spent 3.5 hours and didn’t get to do the outside area before closing, and we weren’t super slow going through the exhibits either.

This is hands down the best science museum that I’ve ever been to - everything was hands-on and interactive and really snuck in the science in a way that makes learning enjoyable. We spent almost 5 hours exploring the space with a 4 year old and could have easily spent more. The food in the cafeteria was pretty good, and I liked that you paid for the pasta by weight so you could take a smaller portion and not waste food. 10/10 way to spend a rainy day

Absolutely amazing experience , with hundreds of experiments and interactive stands over 3 floors, covers all areas of science in a very cool way! You need at least two days to cover it fully including the outdoor experience .

Very fun place to explore but need time is very imformative if we really read and study what is all these. Kids and adult both can have fun. High recommend full day here if you like science. Is very worth it

Very interesting place. Perfect for kids in school age. Easily you can spend complete day or even more discovering different subjects of science.

I love this museum. The kids enjoy it as well. The only two downsides are: it is loud and expensive. You can wear headphones against the noise and use an SBB voucher if you have a Swisspass. You should bring your own food. There is a nice picnic area. You can spend 5 hours here easily. The museum is best for kids between 6 to 14. Plan well for the labs and bring 2 CHF or 2 EUR for a fun game at the door to the outside.

Stunning place, absolutely amazing. Even though it was a rainy morning, the view over the falls and around was breathtaking. I bought boat ride tickets online, but I couldn't use them because our bus tour arrived too early and we only stayed for one hour. There is a very pleasant promenade with benches to rest on, multiple viewing platforms, a couple of gift shops, and several toilet facilities.

It is a beautiful waterfall. I came to it with the knowledge that it is Europe's largest and most powerful waterfall but when I saw it I was not impressed at all. Compared to the major waterfalls in other continents, it is not that large or powerful. But it is beautiful. And the walkway that leads to it is fine. There is plenty of water and it is so beautifully blue. The foamy water under the waterfall is nice to see. And there are quite a few waterbirds there such as gulls.

The Rhine Fall offer a truly spectacular natural experience. We have visited several times and we loved it everytime. Until now, we have always chosen the entrance via Laufen Castle, which features a panoramic trail and a viewing platform situated halfway down. A staircase leads directly to the base of the falls, and after passing through a short tunnel carved into the rock, visitors can admire the waterfall from an impressive side vantage point. Watching the immense volumes of water cascade downward is endlessly captivating — a sight that draws us back time and again. I can also recommend to enjoy the boat ride to the Fall. It‘s a great experience!

Absolutely breathtaking! The view of Rheinfall is simply amazing—powerful, majestic, and unforgettable. Whether you're standing on the viewing platform or taking a boat ride close to the falls, the experience is incredible. Nature at its finest!

A wonderful creation of nature and if you are in Zurich i would recommend having a visit to Rhine falls. It is easily accessible via train and there is a train station that gets you right to the viewing point of rhine falls. You have to buy a ticket to enter the falls which was around 5CHF at the ticket vending machine located there. No need to prebook the tickets. Then you have to take some steps down thus a small walk will take you to the viewing platform of this huge waterfall. You will feel the mist as the water power is really great at the viewing platform. There are several boat services which you can hop on to on an extra cost and will take you closer to the falls.

A must-visit Swiss landmark! Plan at least half a day, walk down from the castle to the waterfall, enjoy the view at various view points, take a boat tour with an audio guide, have a bite, walk back around the waterfall and over the bridge. Visit after a heavy rain when the waterfall has lots of water. Try to come during the week when it’s less busy. There is a little tourist train going around the waterfall and showing some of Schaffhausen. Very easily accessible by car or by train.

An absolutely breathtaking experience! Rhine Falls is a spectacular natural wonder—powerful, majestic, and beautifully accessible. The viewing platforms offer stunning perspectives. A must-visit if you're in Switzerland!

Like many other reviews of this place - great steak, poor service. We arrived towards the closing of this restaurant around 10:45pm but were welcomed in after the waiter checked the time. This changed quickly however when we ordered - the staff hurried us out the restaurant by packing up every single table around us, moving our items off of an adjacent table to close up, and even asking to give us our bill rather than the other way round. Did not feel like well looked-after customers when many other bars and restaurants in the same street were full of patrons at this time and not rushing them at all. The steak and quality of food was brilliant, but the service needs a lot of improvement else would not return again.

We visited Steak House Old Town without ordering any beef, and overall, the experience was just average. Chicken Breast: Unfortunately, this was a letdown. It was quite dry and tough to chew, lacking the tenderness you'd expect. Grilled Salmon: Decent, but nothing memorable. It was cooked fine, though not particularly flavorful. Duck: Also just okay. It didn’t stand out, but it wasn’t bad either. Sides: The sides were the highlight of the meal. The potato with sour cream was excellent—creamy and well-seasoned. The spinach was fresh and tasty, and the fried sweet potato was crispy and satisfying. Soup: We tried the coconut soup. It was rich and creamy, but the coconut flavor was overpowering, making it a bit too intense for our taste. Service was fine, and the ambiance was cozy, but based on the dishes we tried, we wouldn’t rush back. Perhaps the beef options are better, given it's a steakhouse.

Super good steak for a reasonable price - meat was soft and juicy. Meat was served on a hot plate, so every bite was fresh and hot! Staff was super nice and friendly, made us feel very welcomed :)

Best steak I've ever had! While walking along the street In Zurich to find somewhere for dinner we happened upon this restaurant where we could smell the mouthwatering steak before seeing it. A quaint little restaurant with a lovely outside seating area where you cook your steak on a hot stone.. having been on a train all day from Vienna we were ravenous so decided to go for the Tomahawk for 2 and let me tell you it did not disappoint. The most amazing juicy steak we have ever had!!! And even though the steak by itself was more than enough for 2 people.. the complimentary sides of veg and rosemary potatoes were incredible! Even though the food was sensational the service outshone it, never once did our glasses get slightly empty and the staff were incredible and so helpful with any questions asked about Zurich in general! Could not recommend this place more! Definitely worth a visit!!

I loved the food. Best beef I have tasted. Very nice staff also. Recommend!

the meat was very, very tasty I really enjoyed frying it until it was done just the way you want it on a special stone plate) the tartare was divine good servicе)

They did not allow us to have just the appertizers without main meal. We left. Good luck! We found wonderful tapas place instead.

Nice to walk along the street with all high end brands, top tier private banks, chocolate and accessory shops. Of course lots of restaurants and bars too!

This place is only for ultra luxury shopping, there are few other economical shops do exits bit they are slightly off to the main street and they are equally good. Zurich lake and Limmat is nearby.

Considered one of the most expensive retail streets in the world we decided to have a look not long after arriving in Zurich. After deciding against a 2 grand backpack we strolled around before making a sharp exit. Well worth a visit. And if you have money you burn and would rather spend it on extravagant purchases than helping people then this is the place for you.

This is a lively street lined with restaurants and shops. Lots of tourists make this a stop on their lists.

Beautiful and there are several luxury shops where prices are very high.

Good place for luxery shopping

Shopping, shopping and more shopping!!! Nice walk on this avenue.

Beautiful stunning lake with breathtaking view of the alps. There are boat rides available if you are so inclined. Really lovey pristine lake with a magnificent view.

It is one of the most beautiful lakes in the whole of Europe, in my opinion. Obviously, the Alps on one side and Lucerne city on the other side give it ample backdrop for those picture-perfect photographs, but still :) Do not miss the boat rides available from Lucerne harbor. You'll thank me when you take one :)

The lake is absolutely stunning, with calm, clear water. The view feels like something out of a dream, peaceful and unforgettable. Especially loved the yellow bench by the lake side.

Lucerne is a beautiful place with a wonderful atmosphere. The walks along Lake Lucerne and the views of the Alps make this place a magical experience. I can't wait to visit again in August.

Nice lake with clear waters and the view of mountains. You can take a boat ride around the lake

Located in the middle of Lucerne city, surrounded by the beautiful Alps Hills. Lake Lucerne is a very picturesque one, probably one of the most beautiful lake in Switzerland. Also is one of the main attractions of Lucerne (while it also has become one of the most recognizable images of the country). It is a symbol of the city and gives a sublime beauty on sunny days. Especially when even the nearby peaks are still snow-covered and can be seen in the background the Pilatus, majestic. There are many boats that allow you to traverse the lake and cross from one bank to another or even cruise excursions to nearby towns. It's a pretty big lake reaching over 210 meters. PS:- Highly Recommended for taking a boat tour around it to enjoy the tranquil beauty it holds.

The shimmering blue waters, snow-kissed alpine peaks, and storybook villages nestled along Lake Lucerne’s shores. Hear the gentle splash ocutting through the lake, mingled with the cheerful chatter of fellow travellers. Feel ithe crisp mountain air and the magic of Switzerland unfolding before your eyes.

As a tourist attraction, the Lion Monument is relatively small in scale, yet it draws a large number of visitors. The sculpture of the dying lion is strikingly lifelike, full of emotion and quiet power. In front of the carving lies a small reflecting pool, where a few lonely fallen leaves float on the water, adding to the somber mood of the place. Overall, the visit takes about 5–10 minutes. No tickets required.

A truly impressive monument, much bigger than I expected and really beautiful. The Lion of Lucerne is carved directly into the rock to honor the Swiss Guards who died during the French Revolution. The expression of the lion is incredibly realistic and moving. The surrounding park and pond make it a peaceful place to stop and reflect. Definitely worth a visit!

The Lion Monument is located in Lucerne, Switzerland, it is a massive rock commemorating the Swiss Guards who were killed defending King Louis XVI during the French Revolution in 1792. It is a very peaceful and tranquil place to visit, as there is a small reflection pool at the base with lovely trees and flowers around. It is easy to find and an easier walk to get there.

You reach this historic monument with a short walk from the Lucerne chapel bridge of course you can take a shirt ride for free if you a Lucerne city pass. Mostly crowded as it’s a busy spot everyone wants to take a picture with lion. This is a place built in memory of soldier’s There is is wc near the zone. Easily accessible for all

Lion monument was made to honour mercenary soldiers of Switzerland who died during the French revolution. The monument is stunning with huge lion sculpture in a rock with high level detailing. The surroundings are very beautiful and this is an ideal place for photoshop. Don't miss out to see the reflection of lion monument in the small lake below it. This is a must visit place in Lucerne and an important part of Swiss history.

Magnificent though-provoking monument to Swiss guards who died defending French king at the revolution times, emphasizing sacrifice by the people who fulfilled their professional duties to the end at the cost of their lives. It’s a small public park easily accessible by 10 mins walk from Lucerne lake shore. There are restrooms onsite, also expect the park to be crowded almost at any time of the day.

Shaded area with a calm pond and beautifully carved sculpture. There are historical and interpretive signs all around, plus a few benches. Additionally, we found the most technologically-advanced, free public restrooms we'd ever seen here - I seriously almost took a photo of the inside of it!

We had a wonderful experience visiting the Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke) in Lucerne. It was a beautiful evening, and the entire setting felt almost magical. The iconic wooden bridge, with its charming roof and historic paintings, reflected perfectly in the calm waters of the Reuss River—making it one of the most picturesque spots we’ve seen in Switzerland. What made the experience even more special was the atmosphere around the bridge. As we walked through, the gentle lighting and the flower decorations along the bridge added to the charm. Right nearby, the Old Town was buzzing with life. The streets were lively with cafés, restaurants, and little shops, making it a joy to stroll through. The blend of history, culture, and energy gave the whole area a very warm and welcoming vibe. Walking across the bridge and then meandering through the cobblestone streets of Old Town felt like stepping into a postcard. The combination of medieval architecture, colorful buildings, and the vibrant evening atmosphere made the entire experience unforgettable. If you are in Lucerne, visiting Chapel Bridge is absolutely a must-do, especially in the evening when the city lights and reflections on the river create such a breathtaking scene. It’s not just a landmark—it’s a place that captures the heart and soul of Lucerne.

Chapel Bridge lives up to the hype being the most iconic outdoor attraction in Lucerne. Pictures of the bridge from the river shore streets are more scenic than photos taken from the bridge itself. Given that fire of 1993 destroyed at least two thirds of the bridge, don’t expect too much from exposed paintings. Fortunately, Water Tower was spared and bridge was rebuilt and reopened in 8 months carefully reconstructed to preserve historic details.

Lucerne is beautiful city. The Chapel Bridge is one of the iconic attractions of the city. Very beautiful bridge with nice view of the river and the surrounding.

Beautiful bridge which has significant history; there had been a fire in the 90's but apart from some blackened sections it had been repaired. It was not crowded. It provided lovely views of the mountains, lake and Luzern itself. The wood is lovely and the craftsmanship is evident everywhere with examples of quality joinery etc. It's a short walk from the main railway station. I found it peaceful and calming. We were out of season.

The Chapel Bridge is an absolute gem in the heart of Lucerne. This historic wooden bridge, adorned with beautiful flower boxes, offers stunning views of the Reuss River and the charming old town. Walking across feels like stepping back in time, especially with the unique triangular paintings under the roof that tell stories from Lucerne’s past. It’s not just a bridge—it’s an experience that combines history, architecture, and breathtaking scenery.

Walked across Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke) in Lucerne, and it was absolutely beautiful. The historic wooden bridge, decorated with colorful flowers and paintings, stretches across the Reuss River with a breathtaking backdrop of mountains and old town buildings. The reflection of the bridge in the calm water adds to its charm, especially around sunset. The whole area has a peaceful yet lively vibe — full of history and beauty. It’s one of those places that perfectly captures the spirit of Switzerland: calm, timeless, and picturesque.

It is a very nice, special place, always beautiful the flowers at the bridge. Mass tourism, a photogenic square, easily accessible from the train station and ship station.

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.

Definitely worth the visit, the building is beautifully crafted. If you walk behind the building you will have an excellent view overlooking the River. Lots of people were having picnics and relaxing here.

Solo travelers are not allowed to climb the towers, for suicide prevention reasons. You can find another tourist and ask to accompany them, but without the employee seeing this. Don't let them know you are strangers. There's a small fee to climb the towers and it's well worth it. Basel Minster was built between the 11th and 16th centuries in a blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles. After the 1356 earthquake, it was significantly rebuilt incorporating Gothic elements such as pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and large stained-glass windows. The cathedral is made of red sandstone and is notable for its two main towers, St. George’s and St. Martin’s, and its patterned tile roof. The Minster served as the Catholic cathedral until the Reformation in 1529, after which it became a Reformed Protestant church. The Gallus Gate at Basel Minster is the oldest Romanesque figure portal in the German-speaking world, built around 1185. In the tympanum is Christ as Judge of the World, accompanied by Peter and a donor figure, while the lintel below shows the Parable of the Ten Virgins. During the Reformation in Basel (1529), iconoclasm took place at Basel Minster as part of the city’s shift from Catholicism to Protestantism. Religious images, statues, and altars that were seen as idolatrous were removed or destroyed. The interior today remains relatively bare compared to its original medieval design.

It was originally built in the 1000’s as a Roman Catholic Cathedral and became a Protestant church. There’s no fee to get in the church but there’s a fee to go up the top. Behind the church is the Rhine River.

Don’t miss the chance to reach the top of the church. While climbing, it might seem like you’ve reached the end, but be sure to check—there’s a good chance there’s a way to go even higher."

Had a free walk around then spotted people paying to go up the towers. We tried this for a small charge and it's well worth the steep steps to go to the 3 levels available. Bit tight at times depending on how many people go up but numbers are controlled.

A very beautiful and nice cathedral! You can have an amazing view over Basel from the top!

Basel Minster is absolutely worth a visit! I’ve climbed several church towers across Switzerland, but this one had the narrowest spire staircase I’ve ever squeezed through! It’s a bit of a tight spiral toward the top, but that only adds to the adventure. Once you reach the viewing platform, you’re rewarded with panoramic views of Basel, the Rhine, and even into France and Germany on a clear day. The cathedral itself is beautifully maintained, with intricate stonework and a peaceful courtyard. It’s a perfect mix of charm, challenge, and postcard-worthy scenery. Don’t miss it!

This zoo os great with kids. The surounding are made with so many details in mind, everything is green when you walk around. My kids and I loved it. There is great food stations too, amany animals. Especially the aquarium part is super big and nice too. The only downside, its in the middle of the city of Basel, a little hard to get too.

Love love this place- I went pretty late (4-6pm). Although I skipped the crowds, some of the animals were already in their enclosures (not in exhibit), but it didn’t detract from my joy of being there. Loved the vivarium, farm animals, snow leopard, flamingos, meerkats, and penguins. I would have loved to be able to see the new hippo baby though :(.

Zoo was good for a city zoo. I don't want to spoil it so only posted a miniscule amount of photos. I loved going into the bird house. It had some levels to it so find the elevator or stairs. Spent from just after 9am until 4pm.

It is very convenient. With stroller we could go through the whole Zoo. We were lucky we could see all the animals. They have huge space in the restaurant & also banks everywhere to sit.

A very nice zoo – not too big, not too small. There’s a great variety of animals, and even on rainy days you can enjoy several indoor areas. We always love coming here!

It's a very strange and beautiful place. They let the penguins walk freely in the zoo. However, the path was very clean. The staff there were very kind. Everything was good. I was there for 6 hours and I didn't want to leave at all. It was very enjoyable to be with the animals. I wish they were free in the wild, but the animals are having fun there too. The animals are definitely happy there. I recommend you to go there to enjoy being with nature.

What a lovely zoo- lots to see with a variety of animals. I particularly liked the giraffe enclosure. There was also a lovely coffee shop and gift shop near the entrance.

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

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
