    Schilthorn - Charlie's Scary Adventure

    September 17, 2023 in Switzerland ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F

    The Schilthorn is one of the highest peaks in the region (9748 feet) with panoramic views of the Swiss alps. We took two cable cars to the top. There were metal mesh pathways attached to the cliff for those who wanted to be able to view the valley thousands of feet below - right under your feet. I couldn't do it - didn't even try. Or give it a 2nd thought. Hard no.

    Charlie ventured out onto the cliff edge. The photos do not AT ALL capture the depth of the valley below.

    After taking the cable car down the mountain, we went (via cable car) to another town in the valley and walked along a beautiful stream, past waterfalls to Lautenbrunnen.

    The video was taken at dinner next door to our hotel.    Read more
