Schilthorn and Matterhorn Regions

Season 1 Episode 103 | 26m 46s

Electric cars are great for getting you where you need to go, but there are a few Alpine regions that are so special, they’re worth going car-free. In the Schilthorn and Matterhorn regions, Jeff travels by electrically powered trains, cable cars, and bikes for heart-stopping mountain views. He savors the splendid waterfalls of the Lauterbrunnen Valley and cavorts with adorable blacknose sheep.
