Hostelling Information

Switzerland is a haven for winter sports enthusiasts, summer hikers, culture lovers and partygoers! It borders France in the west, Germany in the north, Austria and the principality of Liechtenstein in the east and Italy in the south. The diversity of the landlocked, mountainous country with 4 national languages as well as 3 types of landscape (the Swiss Alps, The hilly Swiss Mittellland which extends from lake Constance to lake Geneva, and the Swiss Jura) is the essence of Switzerland and gives the country its unique identity. Swiss towns never lose their appeal – whatever the time of year! Zurich, the cultural capital, offers an intriguing old town and a rich array of galleries. Lucerne is a picturesque place set among mountains and Lakes. Basel is famous for its architecture.The majestic peaks of the Jungfrau Region in the Bernese Oberland are staggeringly beautiful. With a network of 57 hostels, Switzerland has a wide choice of accommodation, and even provides lodgings in many of the most exclusive skiing areas.
