“This hike is really awesome. Not too tiring, and the contents of the backpack are great. The starter and dessert leave nothing to be desired. Highly recommend it.”
Luisa
on Raclette Tour at Flumserberg
“The mountain railway left right when we arrived, a very charming old two-seater gondola equipped with blankets. The snowshoes and poles were adjusted for us, and then we headed off the pistes into the snow. A wonderful tour. We (both fairly sporty) completed the long tour (7.8 km), including a short detour to a nearby ridge, in just over 2 hours. The cheese fondue was delicious, and the table was reserved for us all afternoon.”
