    I am thinking of adding a night or two at the 3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat.  It would be quite the experience.   Has anyone else done so?  Is there enough to do for two nights? What did you do during the day that did not involve strenuous hiking?

    Hi Fitznh,

    That’s lovely you are planning to stay at the Kulm hotel.

    I am not sure what time of year you will be visiting but you can find some ideas in our Gorgnergrat guide in the below link, scroll to “More activities from Gornergrat in summer” or “More activities from Gornergrat in winter”

    Kind regards,

    Thank you.  Trip is planned for September next year.  I thought we would try the hikes from each stop and maybe glacier paradise ending up at the kulm hotel each day.

    Hi Fitznh,

    Sounds like you have some nice ideas already. There is also the Stellarium if you enjoy star gazing – this has to be booked as a private tour though.

    Of course, just enjoying staying at the highest hotel in the Swiss Alps will be lovely in itself.

    Kind regards,

    Yolanda
