15 Places in Switzerland NO ONE is Talking About (but totally should be!)

Lindt, Gruyères, Matterhorn Glacier Paradise…those places are NOT on this list. Instead, here are 15 places we’ve been in Switzerland that no one is talking about — but totally should be! // ABOUT THIS VIDEO // Instead of repeating the same ol’ “top 10 places to visit in Switzerland,” we’re dishing up the most underrated places we’ve been in Switzerland that no one is talking about — but totally should be! 🚌*1 | STEEPEST BUS RIDE* If you’re planning to visit Oeschinensee, maybe you should pencil in the steepest Postbus route in Europe (at 28%!) into your itinerary. 🍫*2 | SWISS CHOCOLATIER* Nope, this isn’t Lindt or Cailler.

But just downstream is a peaceful, secluded little island. 🧑‍🌾*10 | FARM RESTAURANT* We love to buy local Swiss food from self-service farm fridges, but here’s an actual farm where you can visit, linger, and eat on-site. 💧*11 | MOUNTAIN LAKE* This is Jana’s second-favorite lake in all of Switzerland, and it’s just a chairlift away from Mt. Titlis. ▶️ Watch our Mt.
