Lauterbrunnen below, with its iconic waterfall. The valley reminds me of Yosemite, with a small village in it.
The train system in Switzerland is excellent. Above, a cog train that takes passengers towards the Eiger.

Riding the train from Kleine Scheidegg back to Wengen offered stunning valley views.
The Swiss version of "Zip Line" takes you up to 75 MPH for almost a 1/2 mile.
Risking myself and a DSLR camera, I had no choice but to zip down to get this picture.

It seems many lower peaks in Switerland have huts that serve food and beer, my goal can be seen above.
A one hour uphill hike is required to e.n.j.oy this beer garden deck propped over glaciers.
