WEGGIS | MT. RIGI, SWITZERLAND

Stacia Yearwood | | Galleries | No Comments

The hills are alive with the sound of music!

Swiss francs! The most colourful money I've ever come across.

On the train shuttling up the mountainside to the hotel.

The view from the hotel room - no wonder Mark Twain loved it here. Such a good place for inspiration and writing!

Made good use of my sketchbook/journal here. The beauty was awe-inspiring!

A Swiss favourite: Cheese fondue.

A Swiss staple: meat and mashed potatoes!

Arising into the early morning mountain air.

Entertainment along the trails of Mt. Rigi.

Ahhhh, sooo many views like this!

Headed to the summit of Mt. Rigi.

Near the sommet (summit).

The spectacular view from the summit of Mt. Rigi: The Queen of the Mountains. Mt. Rigi is the only massif of the Alps almost entirely surrounded by the water of three different water bodies: Lake Lucerne, Lake Zug and Lake Lauerz.

Yes, I'm beat. Taking the train down to the laketown of Weggis - pronounced Veggis.

View from the train.

Transferring to the gondolas.

Sun, sea...and snow?

Weggis waterfront.

The sleepy town of Weggis.

Downtown Weggis.

Making my way back UP to the hotel.

I sat on a bench and just absorbed it all! Wouldn't you?

Crest on the mountainside.

Maybe this should be in more plain view? :)

Monk sighting #2. This definitely was the ideal setting to go within!

The sunset on the last evening.

The trail at sunset.
