Ad astra – to the stars
Distant galaxies, culinary highlights, exquisite multi-star hotels – in this edition, we will take you on a journey across the romantic starry sky and allow it to work its magic.
Rhône Glacier | Switzerland
So far away yet to all intents and purposes close enough to touch – the spiral galaxy is the gateway to another world, though we can still observe it from Earth: with its approximately 100 billion brightly shining stars, the Milky Way is many trillions of miles away.
Each of its stars is a sun – some of which even have planets orbiting them. Viewed against the backdrop of the Rhône Glacier, the Milky Way looks all the more majestic. The valley glacier is located in the Uri Alps and is continuously melting, which has resulted in the formation of a small lake.
Just a few kilometres away lies the Romantik Hotel Schweizerhof in Flims – a Belle Époque-era hotel with a moving family history.
