HIGHLIGHTS

Here are some of the things we’re planning to do or have the option to do:

• Visit five alpine countries: France, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, and Italy.
• Do three epic hikes: one in the Mont Blanc massif, one with views of the Matterhorn, and one in the Dolomites.
• Visit the microstate of Liechtenstein. The tiny (62 square miles!), doubly landlocked alpine principality (its head of state is a prince) that is entirely located in the Alps. In 2026, we visited Andorra, and now, in 2027, it’ll be Liechtenstein. Yup, another unique microcountry to check off our list. 🙂
• Explore Chamonix, the legendary French alpine town at the foot of Mont Blanc.
• Experience Aiguille du Midi, with its breathtaking cable car ride and panoramic views of Mont Blanc, glaciers, and the surrounding peaks.
• Hike the spectacular Grand Balcon Nord, one of the most scenic trails in the Mont Blanc massif, with views of the mountains and glaciers, and a visit to the famous Mer de Glace (Sea of Ice).
• Explore an underground via ferrata! Yup, you read that correctly: we are going inside the French Alps to do the Via Souterrata, a combination of caving and via ferrata.
• Ride the Gornergrat Railway, one of the most spectacular mountain train rides in Switzerland, with incredible views of the Matterhorn and surrounding glaciers.
• Explore the magnificent Interlaken and Jungfrau region, surrounded by towering mountains, waterfalls, turquoise lakes, and some of Switzerland’s most beautiful scenery.
• Ride the Gelmerbahn, an incredibly steep, open-air mountain funicular that takes us up to the spectacular Gelmersee alpine reservoir. You’ve seen videos of it. Yup, that one!
• Try the famous Grindelwald Canyon Swing!
• Go bungee jumping from a cable car! Not just bungee jumping, but doing it from a cable car! Yup, if it’s out of the ordinary, we are doing it… 😂
• Swim in beautiful alpine lakes.
• Visit the gorgeous Austrian Alps, with their dramatic limestone peaks, beautiful lakes, and picture-perfect mountain villages.
• Take on the famous Donnerkogel Sky Ladder! The 40-meter ladder suspended high between two mountain peaks. You have seen pictures of it. Now, you are doing it!
• Explore beautiful Lake Gosau.
• See the Italian Dolomites. Another bucket-list destination for anyone who calls themselves a traveler.
• Explore charming alpine villages, wander through picturesque mountain towns, and experience the different cultures, foods, and landscapes of the countries we visit.
• Enjoy some of Europe’s most spectacular mountain roads, with countless photo stops, incredible viewpoints, and those spontaneous little discoveries that make our road trips so special.
• Take part in even more fun activities, such as paragliding, rafting, canyoneering, kayaking, and other fun stuff. The Alps are an adventure haven!
