Those are views! The Adelboden - Sillerenbühl cable railway gives you an all round view of the mountain and valley world from the 1974-metre high mountaintop.

In Andermatt it goes up everywhere - up to the Gotthard Pass, the Oberalp, to Nätschen and on the Gütsch and of course, to the Gemsstock.

From mountain train to mountain train, from lake to lake - the Five-Lakes-Hike on Mt Pizol is a classic and is considered one of Switzerland's most beautiful high Alpine tours. Pizol means high peak in Romansh but these days there is luckily a modern aerial cable car that brings one up to the 2227-meter-high summit.

The first gondola train to the Bettmerhorn, built in 1975, has transported in its 20 years of operation over eight million guests.

The leisurely journey over the enormous meadow slope with scattered hay huts and cowsheds, in the holiday oasis of Brigels Waltensburg Andiast is rewarding.

The massive glacier covering parts of the Wildstrubel chain of mountains measures about 10 square kilometers and is misnamed "Plaine Morte", which literally means "dead plain". At 3,000 metres above sea level, it may be reached from Montana by cable car.

Whether a visitor may be a skier, a literature fan, a mountaineer or a scientist, the Parsenn Mountain Train, opened in 1931, will be of great help to explore the wonderful Weissfluh-Joch.

During the 5-minute ride from the intermediate station of Stand up to Klein Titilis, the gondola revolves 360° around its axis.

Desde el valle Simmental, el teleférico sube hasta el pico aislado del Stockhorn, a una altura de 2190 metros. En el camino podrá ver dos pintorescos lagos alpinos y un característico paisaje alpino.
