Do you know Le Kuklos in Leysin? - May 19, 2011
You can change the color of the spotlight by calling 024 / 494 11 11
Le Kuklos was constructed to blend in with its two neighbouring mountains: la Tour Mayen and la Tour d'Ai.
In Greek, "Kuklos" means "revolving"; the restaurant completes one turn every hour and a half; this makes the restaurant the only place where guests can admire both the Eiger north face and Mont Blanc from their seat.
It can easily be reached with the Berneuse cable car linking the centre of Leysin village with the restaurant within ten minutes.
The Kuklos restaurant has a neat trick – the illuminated Etoile de l’Ai. Telephone 024 494 1111 and you can change the colour of the spotlight.
