For those visiting the French Speaking part of Switzerland, one must visit the Swiss Riviera and whilst there, this is a view not to be missed. It is about a 55 minutes train ride 1400 metres up from Montreux but when you get there, the view is superb. And, it is closer than the Jungfrau or the the Cervin/Matterhorn More

This spot is best viewed on a cloudless day. The views are spectacular in all directions and there are plenty of trails to other mini-views. The alpine garden is also well worth the visit even if you aren't a gardener. We brought a picnic lunch in our backpack and that seemed to be a popular thing to do although the... More

After a lovely ride up the mountain in the little train, we decided to have lunch. The 'posh' restaurant was closed and the outside tables were not yet in use, so we went to the cafeteria which was packed with children on a skiing trip. I had a mediocre quiche and my husband had the rosti which he really enjoyed... More

We went in February but were not skiing. We were therefore able to enjoy the train ride and views, but were left with little to do once atop the mountain, dressed in city gear. It was a Friday, so even the lovely restaurant on the other side of the tunnel was closed (be warned - it's only open on weekends... More

We discoverd the funicular by total accident when we were walking along the shores of Lake Geneva to get to Chateau Chillon. After our visit to the chateau we took a SBB train to Territet and took the funicular up the mountainside to Glion. Oh THE VIEWS below!! It was late winter and there was a lot of soft afternoon...

A colleague planned a day in the mountains for me when I was in Lausanne on business. We took the train to Rochers-de-Naye and it was a wonderful experience. The train is quaint--just what you'd imagine on a Swiss alp. I loved the tiny stations we stopped at on the way up, and the way the train hugged the side... More

What a scenic one hour train trip! The weather changed from fall to winter before our eyes. The views at the top are great. Don't eat at the cafeteria. We went in winter so many of the other sites were closed. More

We went up to the Rochers de Naye on November 28th with our 3 years old son to visit Santa’s office. We bought the tickets the day before at Montreux train station, but if you decide to go on a week-end you’d better reserve your seats on-line (www.goldenpass.ch) cause seats are limited. Round-trip train fare plus entrance: Adults CHF 32/person... More
