You step off the train in Lauterbrunnen and the valley exhales around you—waterfalls calling, cliffs pressing close. The group threads through a patchwork of meadows to the Stechelberg lift, then rises on cable cars that peel the landscape back into layers: green valley, timbered hamlets, and then the wind-swept alpine crest at Piz Gloria.
