    Tips

    May 4, 2022

    Perhaps it is due to the fact that the Rocky mountains are reminiscent of the Swiss mountains that this old railway was named so.

    It connected the Blue Bird Mines to attract tourists around 1905. Today the railway no longer exists but a very pleasant path replaces it.
