Scheidegg to the summit is a 7.2-kilometer-long tunnel. This tunnel, called Jungfraujoch

Express, is entirely made of Hewn by hand, it was an engineering marvel of the early 20th century. The tunnel is very narrow, just wide enough to accommodate the train. In the 0 tunnel, the train winds forward at a speed of 35 kilometers per hour, but passengers cannot feel the climbing and winding sensation.

2. Rhine Falls

The Rhine Falls is the largest waterfall in Europe, with a width of 150 meters, a height of 23 meters, and an average water flow of 700 cubic meters/second. It has been a famous tourist attraction since ancient times, and Goethe also wrote an article praising this beautiful waterfall. It was this waterfall that affected the passage of ships on the Rhine. Ships going down the Rhine had to unload their things here first, and Schaffhausen slowly became a town.

Visitors can take a boat to get close to the large island-like rock in the waterfall, or they can climb on the rock to experience the charm of the waterfall up close; or they can walk to the other side of the waterfall to change the viewing angle. There are also walking trails around the waterfall. Visitors who like to walk leisurely and enjoy the spectacular scenery of the waterfall can stop and go and exercise while enjoying the scenery. If you are tired or hungry from walking, you can also eat at the restaurant next to the waterfall.

3. Mount Pilatus

Pilatus has three peaks. After the gear train reaches the top, it still takes 40 minutes to walk to the highest peak, Tomlihorn. It is recommended to experience it. The road is carved out of the cliff, with steep mountains and cliffs all the way, facing the majestic Matthorn Peak. Most of the time you can't see other travelers in front or behind, which gives you a sense of adventure. ?

As soon as you look up from the Chapel Bridge in Lucerne, you can see the majestic and steep Mount Pilatus, which is popular with dragon legends. It is more than 2,100 meters above sea level. Lucerne also has Pilatus Street and Pilatus Radio, which shows people's love for Mount Pilatus.

Mount Pilatus has become a world-class attraction with the world's steepest mountain train and the "Golden Circle" project. The best route to visit is to start from Lucerne and take a boat - on Lake Lucerne, you can enjoy the breeze and revel in the scenery on both sides. About 45 minutes to 1 hour later, arrive at ALPNACHSTAD and take the gear train that slowly climbs the steepest (48°) mountain wall gear railway in the world to the top of the mountain. Along the way, you can enjoy the changes in alpine vegetation, majestic mountains and occasional Antelope passing by.
