Switzerland Le Moléson
It's a bit removed from the rest of the peaks in the Bernese Oberland, but we stayed in Moleson, so we figured we'd spend the money and go to the top of Le Moléson, since it was right in our backyard. Wow! We were not disappointed! The view is spectacular. You can walk out the trail from the top of the lift and feel like you're walking on the edge of a razor blade at the top of the world, though in reality, the top of the ridge is about 20 feet wide and there is zero chance that you'll fall off. It's really very safe and lots of fun.
Photography Tips
Go in the evening if possible. If memory serves, the lifts run late on Friday nights in the summer.
Travel Information
Take the funicular from the station in Moleson, right across from La Pierre à Catillon. Then take the gondola to the top. Not cheap, but totally worth it.
