Switzerland - what an experience!
10 good reasons for visiting
Switzerland during the winter
|
|
When it comes to winter vacations, every person
has different sensations, emotions and interests that come into
play. That’s probably why there are as many different selections
of Swiss vacation highlights as there are people:
|
|
Outdoor adventure
|
|
Switzerland offers the largest number of high
altitude winter sports resorts of all alpine countries. In addition
to ski runs, skating rinks, and cross-country pistes, numerous
well-prepared winter hiking trails are awaiting the visitors.
But that’s not all, Switzerland is right on the mark with
trend sports such as carving, freeriding, snowshoeing, zorbing,
halfpiping – and sizzling snow parties. That makes Switzerland
the definite winter wonderland.
"Soft, real or
no adventure: you name it, Switzerland has it!"
|
| Skiing above the timberline |
|
Most ski-areas in Switzerland are above
the timberline. This way you can enjoy the panoramic view around
you. It is so spectacular that you might forget to focus on the slopes.
"If Mountains had
a home, it would be Switzerland"
|
| Naturally grown resort villages |
|
Switzerland has the longest winter sport
tradition. For more than 120 years tourists enjoy the Swiss
winter-experience. Our resorts are in villages that grew over centuries.
Swiss resorts offer many advantages: great shopping, cultural
events, local customs, gastronomy and entertainment. Experience
all of this in a clean and safe environment, and within walking
distance of your accommodation.
"Cozy villages
surrounded by a gigantic scenery"
|
| Switzerland - less expensive than you think |
|
For less than $200 you can rent top of
the line ski equipment for an entire week, including boots.
In most resorts you get a 7-day lift pass for $75-$100. And remember:
taxes and tips are always included in the posted price. It may
come as a surprise, that if you compare the cost for your winter
trip, Switzerland is often less expensive than the Rockies.
"Switzerland, your
wallet will thank you"
|
| Short transfers |
|
From Zurich or Geneva airports, it takes
2-3 to get to some of the finest winter resorts. Both airports
feature railway stations for a smooth transfer, you even can forward
your luggage to your final destination.
"More leisure time
– less travel time"
|
| Switzerland - centrally located in Europe |
|
If you have more time, why not combine
your ski vacation with two or 3 days in Paris or London. These
and other European capitals are just 1-2 hour’s flight from
either Zurich or Geneva.
"Switzerland is
in the heart of Europe"
|
| A country and its people |
|
No other alpine country has such a unique
mix of cultures and languages. The diversity typical of Switzerland
unfolds within a small space. It’s felt and experienced right
upon arrival. Contrasts like herding cows and the highest IT-density
in Europe, Heidi and Hingis, wrestling on top of the Rigi
mountain or swinging to the tunes of the Montreux Jazz Festival
- Switzerland combines tradition with modern-day living and
technology.
"4 cultures, 4
languages, 1 friendliness, 0 stress."
|
| Quality of experience |
|
Swiss quality is an attitude. So it comes
as no surprise that vacationing in Switzerland is easy, comfortable
and problem-free. Everything functions! A unique and high quality
rail network brings you up to the highest summits and across
valleys with ever more beautiful panoramas unfolding.
"Switzerland is
a naturally grown theme-park. A maximum of adventures is connected
by a high quality public transport system."
|
| Food and Wine |
|
Enjoy over 300 different Swiss wines, more
than 450 kinds of Switzerland cheese, and of course premium
chocolate. Discover Haute Cuisine from Lake Constance to Lake Geneva.
Experience typical Swiss dishes like Raclette, Fondue, Roesti
and Bratwurst.
"French-, and German-influenced
cooking – always with a Swiss twist."
|
| Switzerland - Vacation Land |
| Switzerland
is too small for mass tourism. That’s why every visitor is welcomed
and treated as an individual guest. Just the way you like it.
"Your vacation.
Switzerland."
