‘Come at one’ to Switzerland’s magnificent Reichenbach Falls, where Sherlock seemingly fell to his death

“COME at once if convenient. If inconvenient, come all the same.”

Sherlock Holmes’ command to sidekick Watson could just as well apply to Switzerland, which is a stunning Mecca for detective fans.

With snow-capped mountains and its mirrored lakes, the Alpine country is truly mesmerising.
Stepping off my flight in the capital Bern, I was immediately struck by how fresh and crisp the air was.

Lungs filled, I boarded a train to Meiringen, where Sherlock seemingly fell to his death at the magnificent Reichenbach Falls.

The train sped along the mountain edge cloaked in a blanket of snow, and my eyes were transfixed by the pristine lakes.

Yes, it’s a bit better than my normal Tube commute.
