Schilthorn

Perched at 9,744 feet (2,970 meters) in the Bernese Alps, the Schilthorn summit offers a breathtaking panorama of some of Europe’s most iconic peaks, including Jungfrau, the Eiger, and even the distant Mont Blanc. The mountain gained additional fame when its revolving mountaintop restaurant, Piz Gloria, was featured in the 1969 James Bond film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Today, visitors can dine while enjoying a 360-degree view, making the Schilthorn a unique blend of natural beauty and cinematic history.
