Enjoying the wind in one’s face and the perfect view: first on the open funicular – rumbling and bumping just as it did 120 years ago – and then on the rooftop deck of the futuristic CabriO aerial cableway.

The view from Stanserhorn overlooking ten Swiss lakes and 100km of Alpine mountains is quite superb. The 30-minute Stanserhorn circular trail is the best way to enjoy these 360-degree views.

The Aletsch Arena offers an impressive mountain backdrop in the heart of UNESCO World Heritage site Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch, with a view of the longest glacier in the Alps, the Great Aletsch Glacier.

The moment when the sun kisses the Matterhorn awake is unique. During this exclusive sunrise trip on the Gornergrat Bahn cog rail, guests can marvel at Switzerland’s most famous mountain as they see it in a whole new light. The perfect experience for nature enthusiasts, pleasure-seekers and lovers.

Surrounded by no fewer than 29 peaks above 4,000 meters, such as the majestic Matterhorn and the Dufourspitze as well as the third-longest glacier of the Alps, Gornergrat rewards visitors with unparalleled views.

There is always something to experience aboard the flotilla of the Basle passenger cruise company: lock passages between Basle and Rheinfelden, city and harbour tours, rich brunch offer and much more.

A trip on the High Rhine from Schaffhausen to Stein am Rhein and on the Lower Lake to Konstanz/Kreuzlingen. Board the boat in Schaffhausen at the foot of the Munot fortress and pass by Hohenklingen castle and Reichenau, an island of culture and vegetable growing, before reaching Lake Constance on the upper shores of the Lower Lake.

At the southern end of Lake Lugano is the 1,701 metre high Monte Generoso. This lofty altitude makes it without a doubt the best mountain for views in the canton of Ticino.

Worth the trip for the ascent alone: the Wengen Männlichen cable car scores extra points for the open-air balconies on the roof of its new cabins. From here, guests can enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding landscape.

The Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGBahn) is the Alpine adventure railway par excellence. The line is 144 km long and leads from Zermatt to Disentis and from Andermatt to Göschenen, covering a difference in altitude of 3300 m, passing through 33 tunnels and galleries and crossing 126 bridges and viaducts en route. The lowest point of the journey is Visp, at 625 m above sea level, and the highest the Oberalppass at 2033 m above sea level.

For pure romance, it is hard to beat a cruise across the waters of Lake Thun on the historic paddle steamer Blümlisalp.

At the very heart of Switzerland, a world record-holding technical innovation awaits: the steepest funicular railway in the world leads from Schwyz up to the car-free mountain village of Stoos. The journey there is an experience in itself, with passengers being taken up to a natural paradise 1,300 metres up.

The glacier to the west of the Wildstrubel is flat, 200 metres thick in places, and drains mainly towards Lenk in the Bernese Oberland but also into the Rhone Valley in Valais.

The chic ambience, aqua terrace and gorgeous views of the lake, city and mountains all make for a relaxing and enjoyable trip. A boat trip on the Saphir panorama yacht around Lake Lucerne offers a feast for your senses.
