7. Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

Lauterbrunnen Trails, Switzerland
Lauterbrunnen is the perfect place to have fun as a family. It is located in the heart of the Swiss Alps and offers you picturesque views that you can enjoy at any time of the year. On this trip, you will feel as if you are on your way to heaven. You are surrounded at all times by green peaks, rocks, snow peaks, and blue lakes. Add to the equation the fresh mountain air, the perfect breeze, and the fairytale landscape, and you will feel like you are in a completely new world. We recommend a visit to the top of Schilthorn, but for beginners, the route is quite difficult. If you can’t cope with the altitude and the long road, you can take the gondola back.
