HIDDEN PEOPLE IN THE SWISS MOUNTAINS – THE LOST WORLD OF SWITZERLAND
Life in remote villages in the heart of the Swiss mountains, such as Sonogno, Foroglio and Lauterbrunnen, is a fascinating mix of tradition, spectacular nature and the challenges of mountain isolation. Each of these states has its own charm, but all share a deep connection to the alpine landscape and the authentic Swiss way of life.
1. Sonogno – Peace and tradition in the Verzasca Valley
📍 Canton of Ticino
Sonogno is a picturesque village located at the end of the Verzasca Valley in the canton of Ticino, Switzerland. It is a traditional mountain village, with stone-built houses and shingled roofs, preserving its authentic charm and rustic atmosphere. The local economy is mainly based on subsistence agriculture, animal husbandry (especially goats and cows), the production of artisanal cheeses and local crafts, such as the traditional “la Tela” weaving. Rural tourism also brings in a small income, thanks to visitors attracted by the wild landscapes and mountain trails.
Life in Sonogno is simple and deeply connected to nature, with a quiet rhythm and close-knit communities, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The village is considered one of the most beautiful and isolated in Ticino, a refuge of Swiss traditions.
2. Foroglio – The Charming Waterfall Village
📍 Bavona Valley, Ticino
Foroglio is a small, isolated village in the heart of the Bavona Valley in the canton of Ticino, Switzerland. Hidden among steep mountains and dense forests, Foroglio is famous for its spectacular waterfall, which falls from a height of over 80 meters right next to old stone houses. The village has no electricity and is an authentic example of traditional Alpine life, where people live in harmony with nature.
The local economy is based on animal husbandry, woodworking, small craft workshops and, in recent years, on ecotourism. Visitors are attracted by the wild beauty of the place, but also by the absolute silence, where the only sounds are those of the waterfall and the forest. Life in Foroglio is simple, without fuss, and the locals still preserve old customs, passed down from generation to generation.
3. Lauterbrunnen – Valley of the 72 Waterfalls
📍 Canton of Bern
Lauterbrunnen is a spectacular village located in the heart of the Bernese Alps, Switzerland, hidden in a deep glacial valley, flanked by vertical rock walls that seem to touch the sky. It is known as the “Valley of the 72 Waterfalls”, the place where the waters tumble from gigantic rocks directly above the village, creating a fairytale landscape. Staubbachfall, one of the highest waterfalls in Europe, falls from over 300 meters, becoming the symbol of Lauterbrunnen.
The local economy is based on tourism, mountain agriculture (especially cow breeding and cheese production), but also on old traditions such as the manufacture of cattle bells. Life in Lauterbrunnen, although visited by thousands of tourists, retains its authentic charm of an Alpine village, where the inhabitants live to the rhythm of the seasons, and the landscapes seem to be taken from a legend.
Conclusion:
Foroglio, Sonogno and Lauterbrunnen are not just villages; they are corners of the world where time has forgotten to flow, and nature still speaks in whispers of water and stone. Here, between waterfalls that cut the mountain, among granite houses that have seen centuries of wind and rain, hide the last refuges of an authentic Switzerland, untouched by the modern rush. They are villages that are not looked at, but felt — with every step, with every breath. A journey to them is not just a simple visit, but a return to the essence of life, where simplicity becomes the rarest treasure.
Would you like to visit or even live in such a place? 😊

Why can't the world look like this???
Beautiful ! God's Creation 🏞
Temperatures in the Swiss mountains vary significantly by altitude; in summer, while lower valleys can reach 20-35°C (68-95°F), even high mountain peaks can have temperatures around 5-15°C (41-59°F), and temperatures at summit altitudes (3,000m+) are often below freezing, even in summer. The higher you go, the colder and wetter it becomes, so expect a significant temperature difference between valley floors and mountain tops.
Are there Asians in Swiss Mountains ❓️
Yes, it's common to see people of Asian descent in the Swiss mountains, primarily as tourists from China, India, and other Asian countries, attracted by the scenery, cultural references in films and TV, and promotions by the Swiss tourism industry. The presence of Asian tourists has led to specific local adaptations, such as bilingual signage and the nickname "Asian bridge" for a viewing platform in the Zermatt area
