There are many other beautiful mountains in the world: the Himalayas, the Rocky Mountains, the Andes in South America. But only in Switzerland are the mountains so accessible. Where else can you touch the mountain from the trail such as the North Face of the Eiger? Where else can you take a train up inside the mountain and step out at 11,333 feet on the Jungfraujoch? This is the compelling attraction for the traveler to the Swiss mountains and provides the visitor with such an unparalleled experience. A visit to Zürich will be enhanced with the four extraordinary walks recommended. The guide also highlights the Swiss food and wine. Easy references are provided for useful Internet site links for the independent traveler trip planning. The Alspachs have visited Switzerland for over 30 years and spend most of their time in "the most beautiful part of the world" - the Bernese Oberland.
