TRAVEL SPECIAL..... SWITZERLAND


TRAVEL - SWITZERLAND

 

First Ski Experience: Mt. Titlis

Ever wondered how professional athletes seem to effortlessly glide down mountain slopes with such finesse? You too can experience the same thrill of skiing in winter at the ‘First Ski Experience’, tailored specifically for beginners. Under guidance from an expert ski instructor, you will be carving your first curves in the snow in no time. That’s not all. Ranveer Singh too received his first ever ski lesson here.

Wakeboarding and more: Zurich

With its setting at the Lake Shore, leave it to Zurich to treat you with the best water sporting activities. Be it swimming, stand-up paddling or kayaking – the opportunities are endless. And if you are an adventure junkie like Ranveer, try battling the waves in summer with wakeboarding, wakesurfing or waterskiing.

Snow Tubing

Snow tubing – a crazy, fun filled snow activity open to all ages. All you have to do is sit in a rubber tube and glide down an icy slope. This activity is available both at Titlis and Jungfraujoch.

Olympic Bob Run: St. Moritz

Ever raced down a bobsleigh track at up to 130 kilometres per hour? Head to the St. Moritz-Celerina Olympia Bob Run for your shot at it. Take an adrenalin-fuelled ride this winter on the world’s only natural bobsleigh track. With only 75 seconds in hand, you are bound to experience a one-of-a-kind highspeed thrill on this unique bob run. Ranveer too became a certified speedster on this track, aided by expert bobsleigh drivers.


Toboggan Run: St. Moritz

Head to Muottas Muragl, Switzerland’s most beautiful vantage point and feel the adrenalin coursing through your veins as you race down this majestic mountain on a toboggan. With a vertical drop of 718 metres and 20 testing curves that stretch over 4.2 kilometres, this is the fastest toboggan run in Switzerland. Don’t forget to soak in the beautiful sights while you try to navigate the cold winter breeze.

Summer Toboggan: Mt. Pilatus
Love high speeds? Head to Mt. Pilatus in Lucerne for yet another fun-filled toboggan race. Ranveer found his adrenalin fix here as he navigated the crazy curves of Mt. Pilatus. Boasting a 1,350-metre steel channel, this is Switzerland’s longest summer toboggan run.
