The Swiss Secret Hot Spring Town That Everyone's Asking About, Plus a Comprehensive Guide

Are you still struggling to decide where to go on vacation? 🧐 I'm here to recommend Leukerbad in Switzerland, a hot spring town surrounded by snow-capped mountains. It's simply a fairyland, perfect for vacation and relaxation. I've prepared a guide for you 👇 Best time to travel All seasons are suitable. The spring and autumn seasons have mild climates, making them ideal for hiking and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the mountains. In winter, you can soak in hot springs in the snow and experience the thrill of skiing. In summer, there is plenty of sunshine, and the surrounding hiking routes are super beautiful, where you can encounter wildflowers🌼 all over the mountains. Transportation Guide ✈️ Airplane: You can first arrive at Geneva Airport or Zurich Airport, and then transfer to a train or bus. Geneva Airport to Leukerbad is about 2 hours and 50 minutes by bus; Zurich Airport is about 3 hours and 50 minutes by bus. 🚄 Train: Switzerland's train network is very developed. You can take a train from many cities to the nearby Leuk station, and then transfer to bus 471, which will take you to the town in about 40 minutes. The Swiss Travel Pass allows you to ride the bus for free. 🚌 Bus: There are many operating companies that provide routes to Leukerbad. The prices are affordable, but the journey may be a bit long. Must-see attractions 🏊‍♀️Alpentherme Thermal Baths: Built in 1993, it has indoor and outdoor hot spring pools and Roman-Irish baths. You can enjoy the view of the Alps while soaking in the hot springs. It's super cozy. A 3-hour ticket costs about CHF 30. 🏂Leukerbad Ski Resort: It has over 60 kilometers of ski and snowboard trails, with trails of varying difficulty levels. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you can have fun. 🌄Gemmi Pass: With an altitude of 2,270 meters, it was an important trade route in the Middle Ages. The cliff views are super stunning, and there are sapphire-like mountain lakes. Hike along the Gemmi Pass, cross the mountains, and you can walk from Valais to Bern. 🌳Thermal Canyon: Hike to explore the source of the hot springs. Inside the canyon, there are gurgling hot spring streams, cliffs on both sides, and lush vegetation, full of natural atmosphere. Food recommendations 🥔Swiss Rösti: A national delicacy, a crispy and tender potato pancake, served with spinach, sunny-side-up eggs, sausage, or cheese. It's so delicious. 🍖Cheese Fondue: Melt the cheese in a pot and eat it with bread. The rich milky aroma will make you fall in love with it in one bite. ☕Hot Chocolate: In the cold winter, a cup of hot, silky, and rich hot chocolate will bring you a full sense of happiness. Accommodation recommendations 🏨Walliser Alpentherme Hotel Leukerbad: It has the largest mountain top hot spring in the town. The room rate includes hot spring tickets, and you can go directly to the hot spring in your bathrobe. 🏩Hotel Bristol Leukerbad: It has its own hot spring pool, which guests can use for free, and the location is also very convenient. Travel tips 1. Check the bus and train schedules on the official website or app in advance to avoid delays. 2. If you go skiing in winter, rent your ski equipment in advance, it will be cheaper than renting it on site. 3. Many hot spring centers prohibit taking pictures, so please abide by the regulations. Hurry up and pack your bags and go to Leukerbad to enjoy a pleasant vacation 🥰
