Message from Monika Klenowska @swissoutside

Niesen's near-perfect pyramid shape has captured the attention of many artists, including Ferdinand Hodler, Paul Klee, and Cuno Amiet. To reach the summit of the 2362m mountain, it takes just 30 minutes to ride on the funicular railway from Mülenen. Every year, the traditional Niesen Step Race showcases contestants racing up and down 11674 steps along the railway line. For a more relaxed activity you can experience nature up close by exploring the mountains with hikes or bike rides. TIP: Free funicular ride on your birthday (with valid ID)!
