  • A brilliant day out! Great for all the family Including dogs! The views are breathtaking from the top. The cable car journey up is great as well. The Bob sleigh was a huge hit with our family...

  • The view is spectacular! Easily accessible. The activities are fun for the whole family. It is worth visiting even for an afternoon trip. We did not do biking or hiking but it is still amazing.

  • Beautiful, the view up on the mountain is breathtaking. Packing your own snacks is a good idea as the restaurant seems to be rather pricey. If you go here, make sure to climb the hill that a cubic sculpture is sitting on, the best views are from atop that hill.
  • Very good place , and beautiful scenery, there were many activities to do and the mountain is very cool at the top. The staff were friendly and kind. Its a must to visit.
  • Impressive church, mountain roller coaster, and other adventure stuff to do there on top of the impressive view. What else could you need?
  • A nice place to visit. Go up by cable car and enjoy the view over the Alps, walk the paths of the hill or take the zip line. Definitely worth a visit.
  • Incredibile landscape! I strongly suggest you the Tamaro-Lema hike.
