    Yes... isn't this wonderful! A real adventure. I love how everything in Switzerland just effortlessly works. Not sure what your plans are but the opposite of this might be Brienz, a quiet little village on the Brienzersee. Take the steamer from Interlaken and cruise down the lake's placid, chalky blue water. I was staying at the Baren Hotel right on the water eating fish in their restaurant and I asked, "What kind of fish is this", and the woman just pointed out to the lake.

    That really was an amazing experience, thank you for showing us. You were so close to the newest Alpine skiing downhill track (for the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup) that will finally have competitions in November as in the last year it was lack of snow. It is something similar experience than Aiguille du Midi cable car in Chamonix, similar heights and also on the national border (if going from Aiguille du Midi to Pointe Helbronner on France-Italy border on the glacier cable car). Sadly weather didn't cooperate entirely - I'm crossing fingers that it does when you take the Gornergrat train ride.
    Opposing to people's popular guess, the Summer snow cover of mountains above 2000 m high in the Alps doesn't entirely rely only on the Winter snow precipitations as Spring is even more rich with them - when it is -5 °C, it is much greater possibility of snowing (and exceptionally snowing heavily) than at the -10 or -20 °C as air can bear more water vapor at higher temperatures. So Spring is normally even more important here than Winter for the entire snow cover and that high in the mountains Spring is the season with most snow (before snow starts melting in the Summer).

    Hi Gabriel, there's no doubt that the Matterhorn has its own weather pattern. That's why predicting the weather in the mountains becomes more challenging, you can be sure of one thing the weather doesn't change much in the Alps. The Lower elevations are milder, and the upper elevations are colder. Where else can you experience the winter in the summer?

    Hey Gabriel, if you are still in Switzerland, you should visit the famous FIGU center. It's near Winterthur. About 30 minutes from Winterthur, take the S26 to Wila and then take the post-shuttle-bus to Schmidrüti. You should give them a call before visit, they have special visiting hours.
