The best way to travel, for us, is by train. The MOB Goldenpass train line let's you do it in style, either in the Belle Époque train or the Panoramic one.  We had an amazing ride going from Lausanne to Gstaad to finally see the art house from Doug Aitken, the Mirage Gstaad where you get mesmerized by the reflections, shadows and light show that nature brings! #OnTheRoad
