Walking holidays in Switzerland

Self guided walking holidays in Switzerland are a wonderful and relaxed way to explore the Swiss alpine countryside. Crisp mountain air, rich colourful meadows and dramatic snow-capped peaks are the hallmarks of walking holidays in Switzerland and all of these scenes prevail as you explore this wonderful country on foot. 

Switzerland is a walker's paradise with many well-maintained, waymarked paths and great trails to follow.  Switzerland has some classic walks like the Tour du Mont Blanc and the Walkers Haute Route and some expansive areas of beauty like the Bernese Oberland, that beg to be explored.

  • Walking in the Bernese Oberland

    Neil talks you through our walking adventures in the Bernese Oberland and why walking in Switzerland is a great choice, no matter your fitness or experience levels.  Walking in pristine alpine surroundings, through flower-filled meadows in the shadow of some of the great peaks of Europe, makes for an amazing walking holiday. 

  • Walker's Haute Route

    Andy and John lead you along the Walker's Haute Route, one of Europe's classic Alpine hikes. The video shows you the terrain you can expect on the route as well as what it is like crossing glaciers in the high Alps.
