There have been more and more stunning view restaurants in recent years. With the advancement of the times, building a restaurant next to breathtaking scenery is no longer a difficult feat. The Berggasthaus Aescher view restaurant in Switzerland is built on the Ebenalp Mountain, the northernmost peak of the Alps, at an altitude of about 770 meters. It offers a view hanging over the cliff and can be considered one of the most amazing architectural wonders in the world.

Although the Berggasthaus is just an ordinary wooden cabin structure, it boasts a five-star-level magnificent view, nestled next to an almost vertical steep cliff. Its unique geographical location is truly astonishing. Though it may seem perilous, the restaurant has a history of nearly 170 years and stands firmly beside massive rocks.

The restaurant serves potato pancakes, meat dishes, as well as specialties from the town of Aescher. It’s the perfect resting spot for hikers and travelers. Enjoy your meal leisurely while gazing at the stunning valley views. Different seasons bring different sceneries, and sometimes you can even see the clouds up close.
