Exploring Zurich - Felsenegg



Today's adventure we are (you guessed it) 
back on the train - this time it is a short trip on the suburban network and we are going . . . 



⇦ Here!

To Felsenegg Lookout





I am such a fan of Google Street View

It is a great comfort when you can put your little "Peg Man" onto a path 
and find out where EXACTLY you are going 
before you hit the road




especially when you find yourselves 
up back streets 
heading to what seems very much like Someone's Back Yard!




But then - 

Doesn't EVERYONE have a Cable Car 
in their Back Garden?






Oh well - All aboard and off we went.

It is only a small Cable Car and today it was not busy at all - 
But I can imagine it would be well utilised in the High Seasons of Summer and Winter.




Good to know we are on the right path!
and just 5 more minutes.

But then IF we had taken the only other way of getting here - BY FOOT (no cars allowed)

then we would have been very happy to see this sign!




As sometimes we thought we may just have strayed into Narnia!


The walk was refreshing in the crisp Autumn Air, but
How I wish I could see THIS blanketed in Snow.





Once we reached the top we found  ourselves a table at the 
Felsenegg Restaurant 
and were treated to incredible Views of the Valley below






What more can we say but WOW
we are sitting on top of a Mountain in Switzerland
eating Chocolate Cake!


Cheers!

  1. I often use Street View to check out somewhere I'm going - it is handy to know what landmarks to look out for along the way so I don't get lost.

    Fantastic spot for a coffee and cake!
