Evening rides

Natural evening spectacle on the Niederhorn

The sunsets in the area are spectacular! The world is lit up in a creamy orange type of tone, powdery pink cirrus clouds decorate the sky, and the mountain panorama is silhouetted darkly against the horizon. Unique motifs for photographers, a grand experience of nature for mountain lovers, this must be the perfect background for romantic moments.
Every Friday and Saturday evening in the summer, the Niederhorn Cable Car offers evening rides to enjoy the spectacle of nature, away from everyday life.
