Swiss Italian is pretty special too. As are Ticinese and Lombard, which depending on your PoV are also dialects or languages spoken in Ticino. And which may, or may not be, the same as Swiss Italian. It's all jolly confusing.
Even Swiss French isn't consistent. In Vaud, a pint of beer is a 'chope'. 40 miles west in Geneva it's a 'canette'.

The line that separates ‘Kölsch‘ speaking from an Eifel dialect speaking is the Vinxtbachtal (river Vinxt; roman name), a very nice descent towards the Rhine on the bike after you have climbed Ramersbach or Königsfeld (Tour de France) out of the Ahrtal.

Sure, but both 'modern' Swiss Italian and Swiss French is basically just 'standard' Italian / French with a slightly different accent, and some regional jargon. Swiss German on the other hand is varied enough that some dialects sound like a different language, especially the further you go up the mountains.
Swiss Italian (and I think Swiss French too) used to be like that, but it got lost over the last ~50-80 years. My grandparents from the Ticino still speak the old local Lopagno dialect, as does everyone else from their generation, but that is the last generation that did so consistently.

Italian. Swiss German and Swiss French is odd. Italian might be too but I don't speak Italian so I wouldn't know.
