Last week we left our Swiss Sunday trip travelling up the Funicular to the top of of the Niesen.
The Niesen is called Switzerland’s Pyramid.
If I remember correctly I promised you some stunning mountain top views. Well here goes.
It overlooks the beautiful Lake Thun.
With one of the Worlds most imposing mountain ranges, The Alps dominating in the opposite direction. Including breathtaking views of The Eiger.
Bizarrely the literal translation of Niesen is sneeze.
It’s also a favourite visiting spot for some very brave individuals.
On top our son had a blast of a time. So many dreams. And the first snow he had been able to touch in over a year.
Incredible photos! Thank you for sharing them!

The Alps are so different than our mountains. A view from the top is always magnificent, no matter what mountain it is. Those views are spectacular!
Thank you for sharing your memories 💌

First snow! That’s awesome.
Tell me, is there ever snow in your parts of England? Like, enough to stick around and look pretty for a few days or weeks? All I ever hear from the British peeps is about the endless rain…
Just wondering. 🙂

No just ice yet. We probably get one proper dumping of snow a year. Increasingly it tends to be as Spring arrives and lasts for a couple of days.

Your photos are stunning. Our eldest son lives in Nylon, Switzerland, and regularly goes off on his own camping in the mountains.
Your little boy is beautiful.

We haven’t been yet but hoping to go in the summer, all being well. He’s only recently moved to Nyon and lived at Blonay for a number of years before that.
