Stargazing Night near Zurich

If it’s a clear evening, spend time watching the stars, trying to pick out constellations, satellites, maybe even a shooting star or two. While you’re gazing upward, take a moment to reflect: write down thoughts, draw what you see, or simply sit in silence and absorb the quiet. 

This is less about high-tech equipment and more about stepping away from the hustle, reconnecting with nature and the cosmos, and giving yourself space to think, relax, and reset.

Via Farrata in Mürren

This secured climbing route lets you traverse steep cliffs high above the Lauterbrunnen Valley while safely attached to steel cables. 

The route begins in the charming alpine village of Mürren (1,650 m above sea level) and ends in the picturesque Gimmelwald below. Along the way, you’ll cross thrilling suspension bridges, narrow ledges, and even step across a 90-meter high wire bridge — all while facing panoramic views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains.
Don’t worry if you’re a beginner — with proper equipment and a guide, it’s completely accessible even to first-timers. You’ll learn how to use the harness, carabiners, and helmet safely before setting out.
