The Rigi Rocks!!

I am a big fan of the Rigi...it is easy skiing, great for kids, breath taking views and home to the restaurant gem, Bergsonne Hotel. We spent Christmas up there three years ago and it was very special....lots of sledging which was great for me not being a champion skiier!

It is a close getaway from Zurich...perfect for a day trip.... to be up in the mountians and enjoy the sun and the amazing views. I would highly recommend the Bergsonne Hotel restaurant, the food is gourmet standards set in a cosy relaxed atmosphere and with an exstensive wine list.  Family owned and hosted by the dynamic husband and wife team, Willy and Dorly who are always very happy to see us. Dorly is the star chef!

We went last Sunday with friends and Philipp`s godson who is 3 month old and it worked really well...everyone was super helpful and of course our boys were very well behaved:) Sebastian had a cute alpine style baby chair, so I could also enjoy my lunch. We finished with a white and dark chocolate mouse which I have to say was to die for!!!!!

So next time you feel like a fun weekend excersion try the Rigi..

The Boys and their wheels:)

Not the most perfect weather Sunday but our yummy 4 hour lunch made up for it!
If the sun is shinning they have the perfect terrace to enjoy a few rays..
