Fun Fact of the Day – The world’s longest stairway has 11,674 steps and is located in the Bernese Alps in Switzerland.
Every year there is a race to the top but you can only hike it one day of the year during the Niesen Run because the stairway runs right next to a funicular that goes 3.4km or 2.1 miles up the mountain.
It takes the cable-driven car 26 minutes to make it to the top but a human has done it in an hour and 2 minutes!
