Switzerland

Switzerland is synonymous with nature. Its perfect mountain landscape forms the setting for an amazing outdoor holiday, from cycling and hiking in the summer to skiing and snowboarding in the winter.

It is the country of four languages, of amazing chocolate and breathtakingly beautiful nature. In the west, you’ll find the tree-covered hills of Jura, while the north is home to the flat Mittelland. The gem of Switzerland, of course, is the Alps: rugged mountains with numerous valleys, lakes, passes and glaciers. In winter, these Alps are also the ultimate destination for an unforgettable winter sports holiday. Your starting point is the city, Geneva, only a short distance away from the slopes.
