The Schynige Platte Railway has been running on the same picturesque route between Wilderswil and Schynige Platte since 1893. This nostalgic wooden rack railroad is open and allows a clear view. Once at the top, you will enjoy not only the wonderful view of the Bernese Oberland, but also a rich fauna and Swiss tradition.
The Schynige Platte bears the nickname "Top of Swiss tradition". The Swiss Flower & Panorama Trail, a botanical alpine garden, and alphorn players await you there between 11.00 am and 2.00 pm.
