Switzerland's most beautiful hot spring·Alps Hot Spring Center

Leukerbad is a hot spring city that has developed since the Roman times. Goethe, Maupassant, and Wimpel have all visited this place. It is mainly based on the popular hot spring center (Burgerbad) and the modern Alpine hot spring center (Alpentherme), and there are many attractive facilities. The altitude of the hot springs here is already around 2000 meters, and there are outdoor hot springs. The hot springs are surrounded by snow-capped mountains. The vertical distance from the hot springs to the top of the snow-capped mountains is only two to three hundred meters. You can also swim. Burgerbad and Bad Maison Blanche Hotel are connected together. In addition to indoor and outdoor swimming pools, the Alpine Hot Spring Center (Alpentherme) also has Irish-Roman baths, saunas, and comprehensive facilities such as beauty and health care in Glarong. Such a small town, Leukerbad, also has two cable cars for the convenience of tourists. One is Gammibahene at the foot of the Gemmi Mountain, and the other is Torrent at the other end of the town. There is also the longest and most dangerous climbing route in Switzerland on the Gemmi Mountain, which can challenge the nearly vertical "ladder" of about 3000 meters high on the island. The two directions of the town are also two styles, the alpine skiing of Torrent and the cross-country skiing of Gemmi Mountain Pass: Leukerbad provides tourists with 50 kilometers of snow trails and 25 kilometers of cross-country skiing trails. The biggest advantage of skiing in Leukerbad is that most of the snow trails can be skied in a few days, of course, it depends on everyone's level. But being able to get close to each snow trail is still very fulfilling. It only takes a few minutes to take the cable car from Leukerbad to the Rinderhiitte high mountain station at an altitude of 2350 meters. The comfortable 6-seat Rinderhiitte - Schwalbennest lift will take you to the highest point of the ski area, 2610 meters above sea level. The 9.7-kilometer-long ski trail starts at the Schwalbennest mountain station. Here you can enjoy the magnificent scenery extending to the Rhone Valley and 20 peaks of 4000 meters high in Valais.
