Loetschberg-Simplon Map

A large map inspired by Switzerland’s Bernese Oberland and Rhône Valley.

This map challenges you to connect three distinct regions separated by the mighty Alps.

In the north, you’ll find the beautiful lakes of Thun and Brienz, with the large city of Thun serving as a central hub. Across the mountains lies the Rhône Valley, surrounded by stunning peaks and home to the famous Aletsch Glacier. To the south, across the Italian border, lies the city of Domodossola. This map features 32 cities and numerous industries, some of which may be located in remote areas.

Connecting these regions will require substantial funding for tunnels, but creative solutions may also be possible—it’s up to you!

While I’ve meticulously detailed the map by hand, I want you to shape it further and customize its final appearance. Therefore, I’ve refrained from placing many buildings or additional assets, aside from natural elements.

Though the map is based on detailed topographic information, I’ve adjusted some terrain features for gameplay reasons, mainly to make it easier for cities to grow.

Only water textures are required as a mod, but the map looks significantly better with a mod that increases render distance or with UnixRoot’s beautiful Natural Environment mod.

All screenshots and videos were created using UnixRoot’s Natural Environment mod, without modified vanilla textures.

Hope you enjoy!
