Discover CH

Switzerland centres on some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in Europe: the Bernese Oberland above Interlaken, the Matterhorn above Zermatt, and the Jungfrau region accessible by rack railway. The country’s cities — Zurich on its lake, Geneva beside Lake Léman, Bern with its arcaded old town — are compact, walkable and exceptionally well-connected by trains that run to the minute.

The Alps are the main event across all four seasons: skiing and snowboarding in winter, hiking and via ferratas in summer, and the lake resorts in spring and autumn offering a slower pace. Lucerne’s Chapel Bridge and Lion Monument, the Rhine Falls near Schaffhausen and the thermal baths at Leukerbad round out a destination built for both adventure and relaxation.
