While traveling through Switzerland you will experience the versatility of this beautiful Alpine country. High mountains, vast lakes and untouched nature are never far away. During a walk through the mountains you will spot many animals. Both high in the air and low to the ground are animals that you can spot with a sharp eye and a little luck. Wolves, chamois, ibex and eagles find their habitat in Switzerland. Bears and lynx are harder to find, but if you go out with a guide, you increase the chance of spotting these animals too.<\/p>\n
Thanks to its unique geographical location, right in the heart of Europe<\/a> , Switzerland has an extraordinary number of special landscape aspects. Mountains are ubiquitous with the most famous being the Matterhorn<\/strong> and Jungfraujoch<\/strong> . But also discover the karst landscape Silbering<\/strong> , the earth pyramids of Euseigne<\/strong> , and Tectonic Arena Sardona<\/strong> . Or follow a hiking trail in the Viamala Gorge<\/strong> and Aare Gorge<\/strong> ? Water is also abundant in large lakes, waterfalls and as the source of many rivers.<\/p>\n The Swiss cities are the perfect counterpart to the overwhelming nature. Exquisite gourmet restaurants and exquisite five-star hotels go hand in hand with striking architecture and avant-garde galleries. Do you opt for the chic Geneva<\/strong> located on the largest lake of Europe<\/a> , the bold architecture of Basel<\/strong> , the medieval old town and modern art in Bern<\/strong> or the hip Zurich<\/strong> with its riverside bars.<\/p>\n Look beyond the chocolate, cuckoo clocks and yodeling – modern-day Switzerland, the land of four languages, is all about unique travel, Alpine experiences and urban culture. ‘Where the world can’t find you\u2026’<\/em><\/p>\n We recently added Switzerland to our destinations.
