Some of the best panoramic views around are from the top of the Kaiseregg, Schwarzsee’s iconic mountain. At the end of October, insiders head to the 2,185-metre-high summit at dawn to watch the sun rise behind the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. For those who prefer a gentler ascent, the Riggisalp chairlift stays open until the end of October. On the way down, it is worth popping in to the Alp Salzmatt Alpine restaurant (open to end of September).
