    Snapshots of Zermatt

    27 septembre 2018, Suisse ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    Zermatt is famed as a mountaineering and ski resort of the Swiss Alps. It lies at an elevation of 1,620 m/5,310 ft, at the foot of Switzerland's highest peaks. Most of the Alpine four-thousanders are located around Zermatt or in the neighbouring valleys. Much of the local economy is based on tourism, with about half of the jobs in town in hotels or restaurants and just under half of all apartments are holiday apartments. Zermatt is very environmentally conscious. There are no cars in the town area. Any taxis or service vehicles are electric and most people come by train.En savoir plus

    Glacier Express

    28 septembre 2018, Suisse ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C

    An early start walking to the train station at Tasch for the Glacier Express to Andermatt. We arrive around 10:45 after travelling through the steep mountain valleys, following the Rhone River. It's a beautifully scenic trip early in the morning. Unfortunately, the early morning sun reflects fully on the glass so it's difficult to take photos.En savoir plus

    Andermatt - The Mountain Pass

    28 septembre 2018, Suisse ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C

    The mountain pass from Andermatt to Stans is an amazing feat of engineering. The switchbacks take us from the high alpine to the valley base, past farms and many lakes.

    Lucerne, Church of St. Leodegar

    29 septembre 2018, Suisse ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    This is a Roman Catholic church in the city of Lucerne, Switzerland. It was built in parts from 1633 to 1639 on the foundation of the Roman basilica which had burnt in 1633. Its approach is up many stairs from the busiest thoroughfare in Lucerne. The grand towers dominate this section of the city and it was this that brought us to take a look inside. We were amazed to find a little nook very close to the high alter which was set aside for children and their parents, not behind glass. Here, colouring in from the kids was still displayed. The adjoining cemetery is very well cared for and almost like a mini-cloister.En savoir plus

    Lake Lucerne

    29 septembre 2018, Suisse ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    The Chapel Bridge is a covered wooden footbridge. Named after the nearby St. Peter's Chapel, the bridge is unique because it contains a number of paintings dating back to the 17th century, although many of them were destroyed along with a larger part of the centuries-old bridge in a 1993 fire. Subsequently restored, the Kapellbrücke is the oldest wooden covered bridge in Europe, as well as the world's oldest surviving truss bridge. It is the symbol of the city.En savoir plus

    Interlaken

    29 septembre 2018, Suisse ⋅ 🌬 11 °C

    Interlaken is a resort town of central Switzerland. Built on a narrow stretch of valley, between the emerald-colored waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, it has old timber houses and parkland on either side of the Aare River. Its surrounding mountains, with dense forests, alpine meadows and glaciers, Interlaken has numerous hiking and skiing trails. From town you can see the Jungfrau but it's very hazy so we don't get a clear view.En savoir plus

Although still in use, the Bärengraben has been supplemented since 2009 by the adjacent BärenPark, a larger and more natural enclosure alongside the River Aare administered by the zoo.
