If you’ve ever daydreamed about winding mountain roads and lakes so clear you can see your tripod reflection, then a 14-day road trip across Switzerland is the perfect adventure to add your “one-day bucket list” for real.
We spent two incredible weeks exploring Switzerland—from the jagged peaks of the Bernese Oberland to sun-kissed valleys of Ticino, and every fairytale village, alpine pass, and cheese-fondue stop in between. What started as a wish list turned into a carefully crafted route, weaving in iconic highlights and hidden gems—because sometimes the best moments happen just off the beaten path.
In this post, I’ll walk you through our exact day-by-day itinerary, packed with practical advice (helpful train passes, scenic detours, small-town accommodation tips), insider suggestions (local loves, not tourist traps), and logistical wisdom (how to manage luggage, drive the passes, book charming hotels). Whether you’re road-tripping through Switzerland for the first time—or tweaking your seventh visit with a baby in tow—this guide will help you make the most of each Swiss hour, without overwhelm (or exhaustion).
So pack your layers, cue that epic playlist, and let’s dive into the most unforgettable 14 days in Switzerland you can imagine.


Where to Start and End Your Switzerland Road Trip
For this 14-day Switzerland itinerary, we started in the postcard-perfect region of Appenzell and wrapped things up in the sun-soaked canton of Ticino. This route is perfect if you want to combine Switzerland’s traditional alpine charm with its Mediterranean flair—and everything in between.
Starting in Appenzell means you can immediately dive into rolling green hills, brightly painted houses, and local cheese culture. From there, we worked our way through some of Switzerland’s most jaw-dropping landscapes—Klöntalersee with its emerald waters and steep cliffs, the storybook streets of Lucerne, and the towering peaks of the Bernese Oberland, where some of the country’s most famous hikes await.
Ending in Ticino feels like stepping into another world. The palm trees, Italian-inspired cuisine, and mild climate make it the perfect place to slow down and soak up those last vacation days before heading home. Plus, with excellent transport links and scenic driving routes, this north-to-south journey flows naturally and makes the most of Switzerland’s incredible variety.

Transportation for this Switzerland Itinerary
For our 14-day Switzerland road trip, we decided to take our own car all the way from Belgium—and honestly, it was one of the best decisions we made. Having our own wheels gave us total freedom to explore at our own pace, pull over for spontaneous photo stops, and visit places that aren’t as easy to reach by train or bus. Plus, when you’re carrying hiking gear, snacks, and (in our case) plenty of baby essentials, having the extra space is priceless!
If you’re planning to drive in Switzerland, there’s one thing you absolutely need to know about: the Swiss motorway vignette. This is a mandatory toll sticker required for all vehicles using Switzerland’s motorways. It costs CHF 40 (around €42) and is valid for the entire calendar year—no matter how many times you enter the country.
You can buy it at the border, at petrol stations near Switzerland, or online before your trip. Make sure to stick it on the inside of your windshield before you hit the motorway, as fines for driving without one are steep.


Best time to visit Switzerland
This Switzerland itinerary is all about hiking, the best time to go is late June to early October. This is when most alpine trails are fully open, the snow has melted at higher elevations, and mountain huts are up and running.
July and August offer the warmest weather and the longest daylight hours—perfect for full-day hikes—but they’re also the busiest months on popular trails.
Personally, I love hiking in September. The weather is still mild, the summer crowds have thinned, and the golden larch trees start to add a magical touch to the landscape. Just keep in mind that by mid-October, snow can start returning to the higher passes, and some cable cars or huts may close for the season.
If you plan on tackling trails above 2,000 meters, check the conditions before your trip. Even in summer, sudden weather changes are common in the Alps—so pack layers and always have a backup plan in case your chosen trail is closed due to snow or storms.


Where to stay in Switzerland
Before we dive into our two week Switzerland itinerary itself, here’s a list of the exact accommodations that we stayed at and how many days.
Hotel Frohe Aussicht – 3 nights
We stayed for 3 nights which gives you plenty of time to explore the best trails that the Appenzell region has to offer! Their rooms are spacious and offer a stunning view over the mountains or green pastures and idyllic town of Weissbad. Another plus point is that since we were staying for 3 nights we received the Appenzeller Holiday Card which gives access to almost all of the cable cars for free!


Hotel Rhodannenberg AG – 1 night
The «Rhodi» – as they affectionately say – is the ideal place to relax, switch off and breathe again. The morning view over the resting lake or the sunset in the evening on their terrace will remain in your memory – pinky promise.
They offer honest, uncomplicated and home-style cooking and prefer products from the region and source them from their locally based partners. Of course you will also find the typical Glarner-specialties on the menu. They are well known for their special ice cream.


Gipfelrestaurant Fronalpstock – 1 night
If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable overnight stay in Switzerland, Gipfelrestaurant Fronalpstock should be high on your list. Perched at 1,922 meters above sea level, this mountaintop gem offers front-row seats to one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the country—stretching over Lake Lucerne, the Rigi massif, and more than ten surrounding Alpine peaks. Staying here means you can experience the magic of both sunrise and sunset above the clouds, long after the last cable car has left and the day-trippers are gone.


Hotel Villa Honegg – 2 nights
Perched high above Lake Lucerne, Villa Honegg isn’t just a hotel—it’s an experience you’ll remember forever. This boutique 5-star retreat blends timeless Swiss elegance with jaw-dropping panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and turquoise waters. The crown jewel is its iconic heated outdoor infinity pool, where you can swim year-round while gazing at snow-capped peaks or mist rolling over the lake.


Spirit Apartments – 4 nights
If you’re looking for the perfect base to explore the Bernese Oberland, Spirit Apartments near Lake Brienz (Brienzersee) is an absolute gem. These modern, spacious apartments combine sleek design with cosy alpine touches, making them feel like a true home away from home. Waking up to panoramic lake and mountain views is pure magic—especially when you can enjoy your morning coffee from your private balcony while watching the sun hit the turquoise waters of Brienzersee. The location is spot-on: peaceful and quiet, yet just a short drive to Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, and some of the region’s best hiking trails. Plus, having your own kitchen means you can easily prepare picnic lunches for your hikes or enjoy relaxed dinners after a long day outdoors.
Vista Lakefront Boutique Hotel – 2 nights
If you’re looking for a place to stay in Ascona that blends luxury with a laid-back lakeside vibe, Vista Lakefront Boutique Hotel is a dream come true. Perfectly positioned right on the shores of Lake Maggiore, this stylish boutique gem offers breathtaking water views from almost every room—so you can sip your morning coffee while watching the sunrise dance across the lake. The décor is modern yet warm, with thoughtful details that make you feel instantly at home.
14 days in Switzerland itinerary

Day 1
Appenzell – Lisengrat Ridge Hike
Our Switzerland adventure kicked off in Appenzell, a region famous for its rolling meadows, brightly painted houses, and breathtaking alpine trails. We decided to start with a bang by tackling the Lisengrat Ridge Hike—one of the most spectacular high-altitude hikes in eastern Switzerland.
Hiking Stats – Lisengrat Ridge Hike
- Distance – 7.4 km (4.6 miles) one-way
- Elevation Gain – ~450 m (1,476 ft)
- Duration – 3–4 hours
- Difficulty – Moderate to challenging (narrow ridges, secured with cables in some sections)
📖 READ MORE – Lisengratt Ridge Hike – From Säntis to Rotstein


This ridge trail connects the peaks of Säntis and Rotsteinpass, offering jaw-dropping views of jagged limestone peaks, deep valleys, and, on a clear day, even Lake Constance shimmering in the distance. It’s an airy, exhilarating route—safe for confident hikers thanks to fixed cables along exposed parts, but not recommended for those with vertigo.
Getting There – We took the cable car from Schwägalp up to Säntis to start the hike at the highest point, then followed the ridge trail towards Rotsteinpass. From there, you can either hike down into the valley or retrace your steps if you prefer an out-and-back route.
💡 TIP – Bring layers! Even in summer, the temperature at over 2,500 m can be chilly, and sudden weather changes are common.


Day 2
Appenzell – Saxer Lücke
Our second day in Appenzell took us on another unforgettable alpine adventure—this time starting with a panoramic ride up the Hoher Kasten cable car. From the top, the sweeping views over the Rhine Valley, Lake Constance, and even into Liechtenstein set the tone for the day.
Hiking Stats – Hoher Kasten to Saxer Lücke & Bollenwees Loop
- Distance – ~17 km (10.5 miles)
- Elevation Gain – ~700 m (2,296 ft)
- Duration – 5–6 hours
- Difficulty – Moderate (good fitness required, some steep sections)
📖 READ MORE – Saxer Lücke Hike From Hoher Kasten (Including Tips For A Shorter Hike)


From Hoher Kasten, the trail winds along panoramic ridgelines before reaching Saxer Lücke—one of Switzerland’s most photogenic mountain passes, framed by the jagged peaks of the Alpstein massif. After soaking in the view (and taking far too many photos), we descended towards Bollenwees, a cosy mountain inn perched on the edge of Lake Fälensee. It’s the perfect lunch stop, with hearty alpine dishes and a terrace that’s hard to leave.
From Bollenwees, we continued the descent back into the valley, following winding paths through lush meadows until we reached the parking lot where we started.
Getting There – Park at the Brülisau cable car station, take the bus or drive to the Hoher Kasten cable car in Brülisau, and ride up to the summit to start the hike.
💡 TIP – Start early to enjoy Saxer Lücke before the crowds arrive, especially on weekends.


Day 3
Appenzell & drive to Klöntalersee
We couldn’t leave Appenzell without hiking one of its most iconic routes, so on our third morning, we headed for the Ebenalp cable car. A quick ride up delivered us straight into a hiker’s paradise, with alpine meadows, dramatic cliffs, and the jagged peaks of the Alpstein massif all around.
Hiking Stats – Ebenalp to Schäfler Ridge, Altenalp, & Seealpsee
- Distance – ~12 km (7.5 miles)
- Elevation Gain – ~700 m (2,296 ft)
- Duration – 4–5 hours
- Difficulty – Moderate (steep descents and some exposed sections on the ridge)
📖 READ MORE – Spectacular Schäfler Ridge Hike From Ebenalp

From the Ebenalp station, we climbed towards the Schäfler Ridge, a dramatic spine of rock offering jaw-dropping 360° views over the Alpstein range. This section is a photographer’s dream, so allow time to stop and take it all in. From Schäfler, we descended towards Altenalp, passing rolling green pastures and herds of friendly cows before continuing to Seealpsee—a postcard-perfect alpine lake surrounded by steep cliffs.
Seealpsee makes the perfect spot for a lakeside rest (or a quick swim if you’re brave!), before the final descent to Wasserauen, where we left the car.
Getting There – Park at the Wasserauen parking lot, ride the cable car up to Ebenalp, and start the hike from there.
💡 TIP – The descent to Seealpsee can be steep and slippery if wet, so hiking poles are a good idea—especially if you’re carrying a heavy daypack or hiking with a baby.


After the hike, we hit the road for our next destination—Klöntalersee in the canton of Glarus. The drive takes about 2.5 hours and is incredibly scenic, with winding roads, mountain passes, and charming Swiss villages along the way.
Day 4
Kayaking on Klöntalersee, Staubifall Hike & Sunset at Fronalpstock
Day 4 started slow and serene, with a morning of kayaking on Klöntalersee. Gliding across the emerald-green water, surrounded by towering cliffs and deep forest, felt like a private alpine paradise. The stillness of the morning is the best time to be out on the lake—mirror-like reflections, crisp air, and hardly another soul in sight.


Next up was the short but beautiful hike to Staubifall—a graceful waterfall cascading down a rugged cliff face. The trail is relatively easy and family-friendly, making it the perfect leg-stretch between drives. The cool mist from the falls was a welcome refresh before our final ascent of the day.

We wrapped things up with a cable car ride from Stoos up to Fronalpstock, where we checked in for the night at the Gipfelrestaurant Fronalpstock. Staying here means you get the mountain all to yourself after the last cable car departs—and you can watch the sun set over the Swiss Alps from 1,922 meters up. It’s a magical way to end the day.

Day 5
Sunrise on the Stoos Ridge Hike & Check-In at Villa Honegg
We woke up before dawn at Gipfelrestaurant Fronalpstock for what turned out to be one of the most unforgettable mornings of the entire trip—the Stoos Ridge Hike at sunrise. Starting in the soft pre-dawn light, we followed the narrow ridge path linking Fronalpstock to Klingenstock.
Hiking Stats – Stoos Ridge Hike
- Distance – 4.4 km (2.7 miles) one-way
- Elevation Gain – ~400 m (1,312 ft)
- Duration – 2–3 hours for the hike (more if you stop often for photos—which you will)
- Difficulty – Moderate (some steep sections and narrow ridges, secured in parts)

As the first light hit the peaks, the entire ridge seemed to glow. On one side, Lake Lucerne sparkled far below; on the other, layers of mountains faded into the horizon. We hardly saw another soul, making it feel like we had this incredible alpine panorama entirely to ourselves.
After completing the ridge and soaking in the views from Klingenstock, we took the cable car down and began the scenic drive to Villa Honegg—our home for the next couple of days. Nestled high above Lake Lucerne, this luxury hotel is famous for its iconic infinity pool overlooking the mountains.
The rest of the day was all about pure relaxation—slipping into the warm pool, sipping a drink on the terrace, and watching the light shift over the lake. After several days of big hikes, this felt like the perfect pause before continuing our Switzerland adventure.


Days 6
Villa Honegg
After several days of early mornings, steep hikes, and road trip miles, Day 6 was all about slowing down and fully enjoying the luxurious setting of Villa Honegg. Perched high above Lake Lucerne, this five-star retreat feels like its own little world—quiet, serene, and surrounded by nothing but mountains, meadows, and that famous turquoise infinity pool.
We started the day with a leisurely breakfast on the terrace, lingering over fresh pastries, local cheese, and strong coffee while watching the morning mist lift off the lake. The rest of the day unfolded in a blissful rhythm of pool dips, spa visits, and curling up with a book in the sun.


For those feeling a little restless, there are gentle walking trails around the property that offer beautiful viewpoints without breaking a sweat. But honestly? We were perfectly content to simply soak up the atmosphere, let our legs recover from the Stoos Ridge Hike, and watch the light change over the mountains from sunrise to sunset.
💡 TIP – Make time for a swim at both ends of the day. Morning light over the lake feels fresh and peaceful, while the evening glow turns the entire valley golden.

Day 7
Drive to the Bernese Oberland & Explore the Aare Gorge
Leaving the calm luxury of Villa Honegg behind, we set off towards the Bernese Oberland, one of Switzerland’s most spectacular mountain regions. Along the way, we made a must-do stop at the Aare Gorge—a natural wonder carved by the Aare River over thousands of years.
Visiting the Aare Gorge
- Length – 1.4 km (0.87 miles) one way
- Duration – 40–50 minutes (each direction)
- Opening Hours – Typically late April to early November, 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM (varies by season)
- Entrance Fee – CHF 10 per adult (discounts with Swiss Travel Pass or regional guest cards)
The walk through the gorge is a stunning experience, with narrow wooden walkways clinging to the rock walls and the turquoise river rushing below. The cliffs rise up to 50 meters high, and in some spots, the gorge narrows to less than a meter wide—it’s both dramatic and peaceful at the same time.
After exploring the gorge, we continued the drive deeper into the Bernese Oberland, with the scenery becoming more jaw-dropping at every turn—glimpses of towering peaks, deep valleys, and charming alpine villages. We checked into our apartment for the next few days, excited to have a cozy base for exploring the region’s famous trails and viewpoints.


Day 8
Oeschinensee Panorama Trail & Evening at Rosenlaui
Our first full day in the Bernese Oberland was all about chasing two of the region’s most beautiful spots—Oeschinensee and Rosenlaui.
We started in Kandersteg, taking the cable car up to the Oeschinensee area, where the turquoise waters of the lake shimmered beneath the surrounding cliffs. Instead of heading straight to the shore, we opted for the Oeschinensee Panorama Trail, a route that climbs high above the lake for sweeping, bird’s-eye views before winding down to the water’s edge.
Hiking Stats – Oeschinensee Panorama Trail
- Distance – ~8 km (5 miles)
- Elevation Gain – ~450 m (1,476 ft)
- Duration – 3–4 hours
- Difficulty – Moderate (a few steeper climbs, but nothing technical)
📖 READ MORE – How To Hike The Oeschinensee Panorama Trail


The trail offers constant “wow” moments—alpine meadows dotted with wildflowers, the distant sound of cowbells, and viewpoints where the lake seems to change color depending on the light. Once we reached the shore, we couldn’t resist a quick (and very cold) dip before grabbing a snack at the lakeside restaurant.
In the late afternoon, we made our way to the Rosenlaui Valley, an unspoiled corner of the Bernese Oberland that feels worlds away from the busier tourist spots. We visited the Rosenlaui Glacier Gorge, where walkways lead through a narrow canyon carved by meltwater over thousands of years. The rushing water, mossy rock walls, and dramatic shapes sculpted by the river made it the perfect peaceful evening stop before heading back to our apartment.


💡 TIP – Start the Oeschinensee hike early to enjoy the panoramic viewpoints without the midday crowds, and plan to visit Rosenlaui after 5 PM when the light is softer and the area is much quieter.
Day 9
Sunrise at Iseltwald, Grindelwald Lake Hike & Lauterbrunnen to Mürren
We started the day early with a sunrise at Iseltwald, a small village on the shores of Lake Brienz that looks straight out of a fairytale. In the soft morning light, the turquoise water was perfectly still, reflecting the snow-dusted peaks in the distance. The peace and quiet made the early alarm completely worth it.


From Iseltwald, we drove to Grindelwald and took the cable car up into the mountains for a scenic hike to an alpine lake. The trail wound through lush meadows, past grazing cows, and up to a glassy, blue-green lake surrounded by jagged peaks—it’s one of those spots where you can’t help but stop every few minutes just to take in the view.
Hiking Stats – Grindelwald Lake Hike
- Distance – ~6 km (3.7 miles)
- Elevation Gain – ~300 m (984 ft)
- Duration – 2–3 hours
- Difficulty – Easy to moderate (well-marked trails and gentle inclines)


In the afternoon, we headed to the Lauterbrunnen Valley, often called the “Valley of 72 Waterfalls.” After strolling through the village and taking in views of Staubbach Falls, we hopped on the train up to Mürren, a car-free mountain village perched high above the valley. From here, we hiked back down towards Lauterbrunnen, following paths with sweeping views over the valley and its endless waterfalls.
Hiking Stats – Mürren to Lauterbrunnen
- Distance – ~8 km (5 miles)
- Elevation Loss – ~800 m (2,625 ft)
- Duration – 2.5–3 hours
- Difficulty – Moderate (steep downhill sections)


Day 10
Sunrise at Augstmatthorn & Hardergrat Adventure
Our final day in the Bernese Oberland started with an early morning push up to Augstmatthorn, one of the most beautiful ridge viewpoints in the region. The climb was steep but rewarding, with the first light spilling over Lake Brienz and the surrounding peaks. From the top, the view was simply breathtaking—layers of mountains fading into the horizon and the turquoise ribbon of Lake Brienz far below.
Hiking Stats – Augstmatthorn Sunrise Hike
- Distance – 6.3 km (3.9 miles) return
- Elevation Gain – 564m (1850 feet)
- Duration – 3 to 4 hours
- Difficulty – Challenging (sustained climb, narrow ridge sections near the summit)
📖 READ MORE – Augstmatthorn Sunrise Hike From Lombachalp


After soaking in sunrise at the top, we took two very different paths for the rest of the day. Christof tackled the famous Hardergrat Trail—a legendary ridge route known for its dizzying drop-offs and world-class views, considered one of Switzerland’s most challenging and exposed hikes. Meanwhile, I took the more relaxed option, meeting him partway via the Brienzer Rothorn Bahn, a charming steam-powered cogwheel train that climbs up to one of the area’s highest peaks.


At the summit, we reunited to enjoy the panoramic view together—Lake Brienz on one side, the Bernese Alps on the other—and watched the late afternoon light paint the landscape in golden tones.
💡 TIP – The Hardergrat Trail is only for experienced hikers with a good head for heights, and best done in stable, dry weather. For a more relaxed option, the Brienzer Rothorn Bahn offers equally stunning views without the technical challenge.
Day 11
Gelmerbahn & Gelmersee Hike, Furka Pass & Arrival in Ascona
We kicked off the day with an adrenaline rush on the Gelmerbahn—Switzerland’s steepest open-air funicular. Climbing at a dizzying 106% gradient, it’s more like a rollercoaster than a train ride, and the views as you ascend are jaw-dropping. At the top, we stepped straight into alpine paradise: the turquoise waters of Gelmersee surrounded by rugged peaks.
We hiked the loop around the lake, a trail that hugs the shoreline and offers a new perspective at every turn—from rocky outcrops to flower-filled meadows.
Hiking Stats – Gelmersee Loop
- Distance – ~4 km (2.5 miles)
- Elevation Gain – ~150 m (492 ft)
- Duration – 1.5–2 hours
- Difficulty – Easy to moderate (narrow rocky sections in parts)
📖 READ MORE – The Spectacular Gelmerbahn Funicular And Gelmersee Hike


From Gelmersee, we began the spectacular drive south towards Ticino, taking the famous Furka Pass—one of Switzerland’s most iconic mountain roads. Winding through high alpine landscapes, we made a stop to visit the Rhone Glacier, where you can walk inside a man-made ice grotto and see the surreal blue world beneath the glacier’s surface.


The rest of the drive took us down into the warmer, sunnier climate of Ticino, where palm trees began to replace pines. By evening, we rolled into Ascona and checked into the Vista Lakefront Boutique Hotel, perfectly positioned right on the shores of Lake Maggiore. Watching the sunset over the lake from our balcony was the perfect way to end the day.


💡 TIP – Try to time your Furka Pass drive for midday or early afternoon to avoid low clouds, which can obscure the most dramatic views.
Day 12
Verzasca Valley: Ponte dei Salti & Foroglio Waterfall
Day 12 took us deep into the heart of Ticino, and it was a beauty-packed day from start to finish.
Morning: Verzasca Valley & Ponte dei Salti
We began our day at Ponte dei Salti in the Verzasca Valley—an exquisite, double-arched stone bridge gracefully spanning the turquoise Verzasca River. It’s a scene straight out of a fairytale: crystal-clear water, polished rock formations, and the gentle curve of the historic bridge. A perfect spot for photos, mini hikes, or even daring jumps into the chilly water (just be careful—rocks get slippery and the water is surprisingly cold)


Afternoon: Foroglio & the Cascata di Foroglio
From there, we headed into the rugged Maggia Valley to visit Foroglio, a timeless village nestled in the Bavona Valley. The highlight? The Foroglio Waterfall, where a powerful 108-meter cascade plunges into a serene gorge. A short walk from the parking area leads you to multiple viewpoints, and meandering through the stone-built village afterward feels like stepping back in time.


Day 13
Exploring the Swiss Shores of Lake Maggiore
With most of the big hikes behind us, Day 13 was all about slowing down and soaking in the beauty of Lake Maggiore—Swiss style. Starting from our base in Ascona, we wandered the palm-lined lakefront promenade, where colorful buildings reflected in the calm water and cafés spilled out onto sunny terraces. The relaxed, Mediterranean vibe here makes it easy to spend hours just strolling, stopping for gelato, and people-watching.


We then explored some of the small, charming towns scattered along the Swiss shore. Locarno was our first stop, with its historic old town, cobblestone alleys, and the stunning Madonna del Sasso Sanctuary, perched on a hill with panoramic lake views. Further along the shore, we found quieter spots where you can walk right down to the water’s edge and watch sailboats drift by.

In the afternoon, we took a short boat ride to one of the nearby islands, enjoying the views of the mountains framing the lake on all sides. Back in Ascona, we capped off the day with dinner right on the waterfront, watching the lights shimmer across the lake as the sun set behind the peaks.

Day 14
Journey Home to Belgium
After nearly two weeks of exploring Switzerland’s mountains, valleys, lakes, and charming towns, it was time to turn the car north and begin the long drive back to Belgium. Leaving Ascona and the sunny shores of Lake Maggiore behind, we wound our way back through the Alps, passing scenery that felt just as magical as when we first arrived—towering peaks, glacial rivers, and alpine meadows in full bloom.
The route took us across some of Switzerland’s most beautiful driving roads before merging into the faster highways that carried us steadily home.
By evening, we rolled into Belgium tired but happy, with memory cards full of photos and a head full of moments that will stay with us for years to come.

Hello Charlotte,
this roadtrip sounds absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing your itinerary with us :)
How many days did you spend to do all of this / how many days would you recommend?
Have a good day!
Charlotte says
Hi!
I was there for like 9 days, but it totally depends on what you want to do and at which pace you want to travel :)
I would recommend 14 days
Anna Wiezbaum says
This is all great. But sitting in the middle of alpine wildflowers, or wildflowers anywhere does permanent damage. Imagine if every traveler who reads this does the same for the sake of a photo. I am from Switzerland. If you can’t respect our country, please do not return. You travel bloggers, all the same. Ruin wilderness wherever you go for a photo. The rest of us think you are a joke and disgusting selfish narcissistic pigs.
Charlotte says
Dear Anna, sorry you feel that way and also wooow what a lovely and way to quick assumption you make! If you knew anything about photography you would know about something called compression, which happens when you use a zoom lense, which makes it seem like you’re sitting in a field when you’re actually sitting on a dirt patch.
Hope you have a lovely day. Sincerely your narcisssistic pig who is actually a paediatric dentist and helps little kids every single day ;)
So yeah, maybe think twice before you start writing all of that word vomit :)
Brenda says
Hey! Love your blog. What time of year did you visit Switzerland? I’m planning on visiting in July and wonder what the weather is like during that time /if I would still get to see snow covered alps!?
