Discover Switzerland’s Hidden Gems! Begin your adventure in the storybook village of Appenzell, where colorful houses and local traditions bring Swiss charm to life.

Cap off the day with a thrilling visit to secret Swiss bunkers in Bad Ragaz — a fascinating peek into Switzerland’s mysterious past! In the mountains underneath the village of St Margrethenberg above Bad Ragaz (at 4,000 feet) lays the "battle ship" of the Alps that stood the test of time (Building started 80 years ago in 1939). It was kept completely secret by the Swiss Army until 2001. The Fortress Furggels (also called Fort Furkels) is one of the largest underground Fortresses ever built in Switzerland. Originally built during World War II later maintained and continuously upgraded during the Cold War to the latest standard (til 1999) with nuclear filters etc to survive new threats including nuclear attacks.
