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.
If you’ve ever wondered what it was like to ski the Swiss Alps I want you to take a look at this beautiful video. If you’ve never thought of traveling to Europe in the Winter then you need to think twice. The ski towns are like a winter wonderland, and the slopes are less crowded and provide some breath taking views. Switzerland and France offer some of the finest skiing in the world so this video should get you in the mood to travel!
