Mountains and passes
From the Rhine Falls to Lake Geneva, from the Alpine passes to the lakes of Ticino, Switzerland in a single loop. Twelve days from Zurich, through the country’s four language regions.
Wide open spaces
Two lakes, dozens of waterfalls and, to the south, the Eiger, the Mönch and the Jungfrau. A five-day loop from Bern, through castles, gorges and glacial valleys.
Wide open spaces
Six days on the road across Valais, from the Grimsel and Furka passes to the abbey of Saint-Maurice. On the way, the Aletsch Glacier, Zermatt and the Matterhorn, and valleys where the road zigzags up to the dams.
Heritage and culture
Lake Maggiore and its Borromeos, Lake Lugano on the Swiss side, Como and its villas, Lake Garda and its Scaliger castles: four lakes gouged out by glaciers at the foot of the Alps. A week from Milan to Verona, from shore to shore, with a stop in Venetian Bergamo.
Mountains and passes
Seven passes, lakes at 1,800 metres and villages with decorated façades, in the only Swiss canton with three official languages. A week on a loop from Chur, with a stretch through Italy, from Tirano to the Stelvio Pass.
Experiences
Lake Constance is shared between Germany, Austria and Switzerland. This trip goes all the way round it in five days from Konstanz, from the islands of Reichenau and Mainau to the Rhine Falls.

Ticino is the Switzerland south of the Alps: people speak Italian there and palm trees grow on the lakeshores. This trip starts in Lugano and takes in Bellinzona, Locarno and the Verzasca and Maggia valleys.
Heritage and culture
Lakeside promenades, castles on the water and the terraced vineyards of Lavaux, on the north shore of Lake Geneva. A four-day loop from Geneva, with a detour through the Gruyère on the way back.
