Crans Montana is another very famous place, especially for the rich.

Gstaad Switzerland Although the electricity they generate is vital for people, the dams have an impact on wildlife. The ibex, a type of mountain goat, climb up them to find food! There are many rare animals and plants here that are adapted to living at high altitude and are found nowhere else in the world.

Gstaad is also a place for the rich. Insiders say that chalets worth over CHF 40 million have been built here. But the place is much more than that. Besides the great wellness hotels, there is also beautiful and traditional nature, which I really appreciate. Although Gstaad is part of the Swiss Pre-Alps, it is only a 20-minute drive to the valley station of the Glacier 3000. Davos Switzerland Chatré, Baptiste, et al. (2010).

[4] This chain of highlands divides the drainage of the rivers that flow to the east into the Pacific Ocean from those that flow west into the drainage of the Murray–Darling Basin (and thence to the Southern Ocean) or into inland waters, such as Lake Eyre, which lie below sea level, or else evaporate rapidly.Luca Ermini et al., "Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of the Tyrolean Iceman," Current Biology, vol. 18, no. 21 (30 October 2008), pp. 1687–1693 Since the Middle Ages, transit across the Alps played an important role in history.
