Swiss Summit Bliss

Look forward to a journey full of impressive summit moments and diverse landscapes. From Säntis to Pilatus and into the Bernese Oberland, spectacular panoramas, charming Swiss towns, and unique nature experiences await you. One highlight follows another – high above lakes, valleys, and imposing mountain worlds.

Day 1 | Arrival (approx. 570 km)

Departure in the morning and drive to Switzerland. At the foot of the Säntis, your hotel awaits you for the next two nights in a unique location and right in the heart of nature. Check-in and dinner. Afterwards, you can relax in the hotel's wellness oasis with a view of the enchanting Weidwal.

Day 2 | Excursion Säntis – Appenzell (approx. 50 km)

Today, experience a special kind of breakfast. Take the cable car to the summit of Säntis, located at almost 2,500 m. A delicious breakfast buffet will be served to you in the summit restaurant. From up here, enjoy a panorama over six countries, Lake Constance, and the pre-Alps. The interactive experience world expands your horizons in any weather. Learn interesting facts about wind and weather, snow and ice, as well as the history of the cable car. In the afternoon, you will travel to Appenzell. Characteristic of the village are the houses adorned with colorful paintings and the charming alleys. We recommend a visit to the Appenzeller Brewery. The numerous types of beer are still handcrafted and made according to traditional recipes.

Day 3 | Schwägalp – Lucerne – Pilatus

(approx. 140 km)

You leave the Appenzellerland and continue towards Lake Lucerne. Late in the morning, you will reach Lucerne. Thanks to its stunning location on Lake Lucerne and surrounded by mountains, the city is one of the most popular cities in Switzerland. Tradition and modernity are closely intertwined: The old town with its historic buildings is right next to the futuristic Culture and Congress Center KKL, an architectural highlight of Lucerne. In the afternoon, continue to Alpnachstad. From here, take a breathtakingly constructed cogwheel train to Pilatus. You will spend the night at an altitude of 2,000 m. Enjoy the magnificent view of the fjord-like Lake Lucerne at sunset.

Day 4 | Pilatus/Kriens – Aare Gorge –

Hasliberg (approx. 74 km)

We recommend setting your alarm early today, as the sunrise on Pilatus is one of the most beautiful natural experiences in Switzerland. After breakfast, take the gondola down to Kriens, where your coach is already waiting for you. Then, you will drive past Lake Sarner and continue towards the Bernese Oberland. Over the Brünig Pass and along the turquoise shimmering Lungern Lake, you will reach the impressive Aare Gorge near Meiringen. Here, the Aare has carved deep into the limestone rock over thousands of years. During your stay, you will have the opportunity to explore the impressive gorge on your own. Afterwards, you will continue to your hotel. You will spend the next two nights in Hasliberg-Reuti, above Meiringen.

Day 5 | Excursion Grindelwald/Lauterbrunnen (approx. 110 km)

Today, you will experience another highlight of your trip: you will travel to Grindelwald. The massive mountains of Jungfrau, Mönch, and Eiger with the infamous north face are now right in front of you. Take the cogwheel train to Kleine Scheidegg. In the afternoon, descend to Lauterbrunnen, where your bus is already waiting for you.

Day 6 | Return journey (approx. 600 km)

Enjoy the breakfast buffet in your hotel one last time. With many impressions and one or two souvenirs, you will begin your journey home.
