Highly recommended short half day trek from Furi to Zum See to Zermatt town. Take Cable car and drop off one stop up, at Furi station. Follow well marked paths downhill to Zum See, lunch or tea break at Zum See restaurant (thumbs up food & service), then follow signage and walk downhill to Zermatt town. Whole trip should last about 4-5hrs including lunch stop. Suitable for families too.

Hi may i know how you travel to unter seen from Helsinki? I'll be going to unterseen from Milan, Italy. I'm planning to go to jungfraujoch and looking for the best place to stay.
ReplyDeletehi, u can take a flight from Milan to Zurich airport and transfer to a train heading towards Interlaken OST station. Alight at Interlaken West station (one stop before Interlaken OST), Unterseen is just few minutes on foot from there. Train timetables are available on SBB website, check my blog on 'getting around on swiss travel system' for more details.
ReplyDeleteHello, lovely photos you have here and you really covered a lot of places! I'm just wondering did you visit all these places via a travel package or was it a free and easy one? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Liwen, no SG travel agent has an itinerary that covers Swiss in such detail. I DIY every single thing for this trip. You'll notice at the end of the blog, there are several links to my other blogs on tips to survive a trip in Swiss. Happy planning :)
DeleteWow you cover a lot of places! Thank you for sharing :)
