Hi,
I will be traveling with another 4-5 people in Switzerland, September 19-26.
Wanted to know the main city’s and areas I shouldn’t miss.
Trip will be starting from Geneva. Definitely want to go see lake geneva and the Swiss Alps!
Also- We’d like to stay in cheapest places possible, from quick research seems like even the hostels are quite pricey!
any recommendations?
Thanks
-Shana

Hello Shana,

My personal top-something, in random order:

• Schynige Platte (cog railway from Wilderswil, wonderful views)!
• Schilthorn
• Hiking in the Lauterbrunnen Valley
• Kleine Scheidegg and/or Jungfraujoch
• Hiking from Männlichen tot Kleine Scheidegg
• First (from Grindelwald) and hiking to Grosse Scheidegg, postbus back to Grindelwald

These are just examples, but I think some of the most wanted places to be.

Maybe this page and this one may be of help to you.

Wishing you a very nice trip,

Switzerland’s a small country but I think we must have more things to see than just the Jungfrau area 🙂

What sort of accommodation budget have you got? And how active do you want to be? Maybe a few nights in mountain huts would be perfect? Some hiking and not so expensive.

You’re right, of course. That’s why I called it my personal top-something :-)!
