| Good to Know | Around the world, and particularly within larger cities and towns, the pace of life is quickening. Bettmeralp provides the opportunity to get away from it all because the small village has always remained an alp. You actually hear the sound of silence as Bettmeralp is perched high up in the mountains, accessible only by aerial cable car. Take a deep breath, enjoy the healthy air and forget about the cares of the world. Enjoy the panorama covering the world-famous 4000m/12,000ft peaks. |
