Winter and summer

Perched high above the Linth Valley on a sunny south-facing terrace, Braunwald is one of Switzerland's most enchanting car-free mountain resorts. It is a sanctuary for those seeking silence, fresh Alpine air, and a total departure from the rush of urban life. Located in the heart of the Glarus Alps, it attracts visitors year-round who come to admire the dramatic scenery of the Tödi and Ortstock peaks. Whether you are arriving for a summer hiking adventure or a winter ski retreat, the journey begins with a seamless transition from the international bustle of Zurich Airport to the serene gateway of the Glarus region.

Choosing Zuerich Airport Taxi for your journey ensures a smooth, door-to-door experience that eliminates the complexities of navigating public transport with heavy luggage. Upon your arrival at Zurich Airport, your professional driver will be waiting in the arrivals hall with a personalized sign as part of our signature meet and greet service. We understand that travel plans can shift, which is why we provide constant flight monitoring to adjust for any delays automatically. Our transfers operate on a fixed-price basis, meaning the quote you receive is exactly what you pay, covering all tolls and fees without any hidden surprises.

Braunwald is renowned for its unique character, where the only sounds you are likely to hear are the funicular and the occasional horse-drawn carriage. In the winter, the resort transforms into a snowy playground with impeccably groomed pistes, sledding runs, and cozy mountain huts. Summer visitors flock to the famous Zwerg-Bartli-Weg, a themed trail based on local legends that is a hit with children, or challenge themselves on the via ferratas that offer breathtaking views of the surrounding massifs. The lack of cars creates a tranquil atmosphere that is increasingly rare, making every breath of the crisp mountain air feel like a true luxury.

This destination is a haven for families thanks to its safety and specialized children's activities, but it also caters to corporate groups looking for an inspiring retreat location far from the boardroom. Large groups and ski teams find our service particularly beneficial as we provide spacious vehicles that can accommodate up to sixteen passengers comfortably. By choosing a private transfer, you ensure that your group stays together and arrives at the Linthal valley station refreshed and ready to board the funicular for the final scenic ascent into the heart of Braunwald.

Our fleet is designed to meet the diverse needs of Alpine travelers, offering everything from executive sedans to large passenger vans. We understand that a trip to Braunwald often involves significant gear, whether it is sets of skis and snowboards for the winter season or bulky hiking equipment and strollers for a family summer holiday. Our vehicles offer ample luggage space, ensuring that your belongings are transported safely and securely. You can travel with peace of mind knowing that your high-end equipment is handled with care by experienced drivers who know the routes to the Glarus region perfectly.

Since Braunwald is car-free, the private transfer concludes at the Braunwaldbahn valley station in Linthal. This logistical detail is where our service shines, as we time your arrival to coordinate smoothly with the funicular schedule. Our twenty-four-hour availability means that even if you have a very early morning flight or a late-night arrival, a professional driver will be there to bridge the gap between the airport and the mountains. This reliability is essential for those who want to maximize their time on the slopes or the hiking trails rather than waiting at train platforms.

Booking your transfer to the Glarus Alps is a straightforward process designed for the modern traveler. We recommend securing your vehicle in advance to ensure availability, especially during the peak winter and summer seasons when Braunwald is most popular. Simply provide your flight details and group size, and we will handle the rest, from the initial confirmation to the final drop-off at Linthal. With Zuerich Airport Taxi, you are not just booking a ride; you are investing in a premium start to your Swiss Alpine experience, defined by comfort, punctuality, and local expertise.
