Reviewed By faustinor238 - River Edge, United States
It's really a wonderful, beautiful and great view 360 degrees while riding to the top of Europe. There are probably a minimum of 4 stops on your way, and you can ride again without adding any fees. The stop will help you acclimatize as you are going if I remember correctly more than 11,000 ft. and some shopping too. You'll meet skiers, and tourist alike from all over the world!
