Imagine sitting back, sipping a cold Belgian beer as the Glacier Express whisks you along some of the most beautiful scenery in Europe. The travel season dies down a little during the Winter months, but the Swiss Alps are meant to be scene in there sheer powdery white state. Don’t let the name fool you, this train is by no means a fast train. A newcomer to the Glacier Express will quickly realize you’re in for a long, enjoyable ride. This train is a great experience every time you go because there is always a great group of people to mingle with. This is definitely one tourist attraction that doesn’t die off during the colder months.

The Glacier Express goes from two amazing mountain resorts, so going either way is a good thing! The two resorts are St. Moritz and the equally known Zermatt. Pretty much all the skiing and snowboarding one person could handle in his entire lifetime. I find the real treat in this 7 1/2 hour train trip are the 91 tunnels and 291 bridges you journey across mountain sides and cozy little towns. Since this is a mountain train you’ll either be happy or somewhat nervous about the peak height of 6,670 ft at which you’ll travel to.

So the ski season is here and the Swiss Alps are calling all snowboarders and skiier’s to the mountains. I’ve been planning my ski trip to Switzerland this year and I’ll be renting a place in Interlaken which is in my opinion the best place to be. Interlaken is a sweet ski village in the Winter with tons of people, places to hang out at and some of the best powder around.

Switzerland is personally my favorite place in all of Europe and I highly recommend everyone make it a stop at least once in their life. The landscape and people is what draws me back every time, you won’t find any other place like it on earth. You can go from rich cultural urban centers, and within a couple hours be deep in lush forests and mountains. It actually kind of reminds me of it back here home in Vancouver!

Traveling by train through Switzerland is breathtaking to say the least, and it’s also very affordable! I’ve spent many numerous 2 weeks trips around the country and found that it is an ideal amount of time to see a majority of the sites.  You’ll find that the Swiss are some of the friendliest people in Europe and have been known for their hospitality for decades.

It is a small country so you have many options in which Eurail Pass to choose from. Seeing the whole country is doable no matter what time of the year. Take a look at the passes available for Switzerland and make the best decision on which one to get. If you’re coming in with a Eurail Global Pass then make sure to plan your trip out before hand.
