One of the amazing things in Switzerland is the proximity and easy access to world class ski facilities. Within a one hour driving distance from Zurich there are many great locations where you can ski/snowboard.
This weekend we visited Stoos. The village of Stoos is car free and can be accessed only by a funicular / Cable Car.
World’s steepest cable car
The funicular is the world’s steepest and is a must try. A round trip ticket costs 11 CHF with a half fare card. If you plan to ski, a day pass costs 50 CHF and also includes a round trip Cable car ticket.
Affordable and accessible ski slopes
Once at the top, it’s easy to rent ski equipment right outside the cable car exit and is very reasonable – 50 CHF for a full day.
Within 15 min we were on the practice slopes and later to Frohenalpstock. There is a restaurant at the top with amazing views of Lake Luzern and the surrounding mountains
