Switzerland

Adventure Holidays in Switzerland

Home to some of the most dramatic mountains in Europe, Switzerland is an astoundingly beautiful country. Bordering Germany, France, Austria and Italy – four languages are spoken here – and you’re unlikely to travel far into the Alps without meandering into another country. During the summer months there’s challenging – and not so challenging – walking and trekking on offer, with spectacular views. Whether you climb Eiger, Jungfrau, Matterhorn or Monch you’ll hike along well-marked trails amongst stunning Alpine flowers. The treks of the Jungfrau and Haute Route are considered the best in Europe. They comprise of sparsely populated rugged tracks scattered with glacial lakes, high passes, green valleys and flowering meadows. Arguably it’s also the birth place of winter tourism, and highlights of the winter calendar include the Endagin Ski Marathon and Jura Cross-country Ski Tour.
