Switzerland is known for its mountains (Alps in the south, Jura in the northwest) but it also has a central plateau of rolling hills, plains, and large lakes. Switzerland is renowned over the world for downhill skiing, and the country is also great for many other outdoor activities, including hiking and mountain biking. Mountain climbing, from easy to very hard, can also be found in Switzerland, and there is hardly another place with a longer tradition for this. Some routes, like the North face of the Eiger, have become near-mythical due to the hardships, sacrifice and even deaths suffered by the first people to climb them. And because of the breathtaking views, travelling from one place to another by car, bus, train or bike along alpine roads and railroads is often an experience in itself.

Switzerland

The canton is mainly dominated by the glacial Rhône Valley.  Zermatt is a pretty touristic village dominated by the views of the Matterhorn.

If you are a nature lover, you should definitely stop by these places; the Gornergrat, the Petit Cervin, the Alletsch glacier, the Sphinx observatory, Crans-Montana and the Lake Noir.
