Switzerland is a stunning European country with endless natural beauty, charming cities and ski resorts brimming with history, amazing outdoor adventures, some of the most delicious cuisines in Europe, chocolate factories galore and a melting pot of European cultures.

The country is best known for its rail network which travels through some of the world’s most scenic landscapes and towns; popular rail journeys include the Glacier Express, Golden Pass and Bernina Express.

Switzerland’s most famous landmark is of course the Matterhorn, a breath-taking mountain towering at nearly 14,500m. You can reach the Matterhorn’s summit via the Gornergrat Bahn cog railway from Zermatt, a thrilling hiking trail or the Matterhorn glacier ride - the world’s highest 3S cable car.

Switzerland is also home to some of the largest and highest waterfalls in Europe, including the breath-taking Rhine Falls which becomes illuminated in the evenings.

Switzerland is an ideal destination to visit all year round. The Swiss landscapes are filled with a multitude of vibrant colours in the spring and summer, and the winter allows some incredible sports opportunities, particularly skiing and bobsleighing.
