Holidays to Switzerland
When the days get longer, there’s a whole lot to experience in Switzerland. That’s because you’ll not only find unrivalled hiking routes but also UNESCO World Heritage sites and a biosphere reserve, not to mention numerous parks. Our country also offers some places that are just perfect for families.
What could be better for leaving behind the stresses of everyday life than a trip to a beautiful place? The Swiss parks are not just great spots for rest and relaxation but also play a vital role in the preservation of natural habitats.
In Basel, a shopping trip can easily be a sightseeing tour. Just follow the Freie Strasse in the city centre – which leads to the Marktplatz, the Gerbergasse and the Aeschenvorstadt.
Switzerland by train, bus and boat: The way of travelling that is as exciting as it is relaxing. Swiss public transport carries travellers away to the most fascinating panoramic routes, the most beautiful mountain summits and the most romantic boat tours.
Then, in the winter, you have a choice of wide pistes, steep gullies, and huge halfpipes. More than 200 ski regions offer everything the heart desires when it comes to winter sports.
