Explore Switzerland: Adventures in the Alps, Lake Geneva, Lucerne & Valais

Together with Switzerland Tourism, we guide you through the best that the regions of Bernese Oberland, Lake Geneva, Lucerne, and Valais have to offer. We embark on our own adventures in the regions and speak to local photographers and athletes to gain a deeper understanding of this beautiful and exciting country.

For centuries, the Swiss Alps have beckoned the adventure seekers, the mountaineers, the explorers. Alpinism flourished and grew here in the 19th century as a new generation began probing boundaries and looking up to the heights — and we’ve never really stopped looking up. Today the Swiss Alps are more accessible than ever, helping many to discover the joys of mountain sports. And yet there are other sides to Switzerland: mountain biking, canyoning, whitewater rafting, gentle valley walks with your family, fine food, and gorgeous villages where tradition meets modern convenience.
