Switzerland is a land of contrasts: from the snowy Alps to the sunny shores of Lake Geneva. It is a melting pot of cultures, languages and traditions, which together create a unique and harmonious atmosphere. Whether you enjoy the serene beauty of its lakes or the rich history of its cities, Switzerland offers a wealth of experiences waiting to be discovered by car.
Switzerland is known for its well-maintained and efficient road network. Although roads in the cities are modern and wide, mountain passes and roads in remote areas can be narrow and winding. Especially in winter, it is essential to be prepared for winter conditions and carry snow chains.
Given Switzerland's mountainous landscape, a car with a powerful engine is recommended. For travelling around the mountains, an SUV is ideal, while for sunny drives in summer, a convertible can be a great choice.
The best time to visit Switzerland depends on the activities you want to undertake. For winter sports, December to February are ideal, while the summer months of July and August are perfect for hiking and enjoying the lakes.
Switzerland is known for its culinary delicacies. Rösti, a dish made of grated potatoes, is a must-try. For those who like sweets, Swiss chocolate is a real treat. If you want to try alcoholic drinks, Spezi is an excellent choice, but remember not to drive any further after drinking.
