Switzerland: The Heart of Europe

Travellers are dreamers who make their desires for adventure a reality. And imagine what an adventure you could experience in Switzerland. This is the time you get to visit it yourself, instead of just hearing about the sensational country.

Being on holiday in Switzerland, awe-inspiring scenery steals your breath away every day. Skiing with vistas of the Matterhorn, kayaking across glacier lakes, and hiking to spectacular waterfalls are all amazing options. Each season brings its own set of colours and new activities to enjoy in either the sun or the snow. This is a country that genuinely exceeds the imagination, no matter what you enjoy doing.

With Switzerland being nestled in the Swiss Alps, it’s only natural that it has plenty of massive mountains. Monte Rosa is the tallest at 4634 meters, while the renowned Matterhorn takes a close second at 4478 meters. Moreover, there are 24 peaks that are higher than 4000 meters. One thing is for sure: there is certainly much to do if you are a climber.

The most stunning scenery in Switzerland is made up of magnificent mountains, lots of lakes, and various villages. These sceneries are said to be part of what makes Switzerland such a great holiday destination and place to about different cultures. A gorgeous, clean lake can always be counted on to lend a bit of enchantment to any photograph. And if you’re lucky enough to stay in Switzerland, you’ll have plenty to pick from. This is because there are over 7000 lakes in the nation. While Lake Geneva, to the west, is certainly the most renowned, if you travel into the interior, you won’t have any problem discovering your own little lagoon.

Switzerland is completely landlocked, which means it lacks a coastline. Instead, France, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, and Italy share the country’s borders. Southern Switzerland, on the other hand, has a mostly Mediterranean climate. This four-language country is known for cuckoo clocks, yodelling, and chocolate, as well as culturally rich towns like Bern, Zurich, and Lausanne. Architecture and museums combine history with the creative design for which the country is known.

Switzerland is a holiday dream come true, from the majestic Swiss Alps to ancient villages and world-class art. In this Alpine beauty, expect to build lifelong memories.
