For a little Alpine fun, take the winding mountain road to Flumserberg, perched high above the lake and facing the impenetrable rock wall of the Churfirsten range. The mountain is the starting point for high-Alpine hikes like the 13km 7-Gipfel Tour , taking in seven peaks and affording mind-blowing views of the Swiss Alps and Walensee. Allow roughly 6½ hours for the round-trip hike. For families, there are buggy-friendly footpaths, adventure playgrounds and a toboggan run, Floomzer.
In winter the same slopes lure skiers and snowboarders, who pound the powder on 65km of well-maintained pistes catering to all levels. A one-day ski pass costs Sfr55/27 for adults/children.
