Trying to find suitable month
-
Hi all,
Kindly bear with me for 4-5 minutes for these questions:
Okay, we are a young couple, planning to travel for 3 weeks time to Switzerland/Italy/France.
Detailed as below:
Day 1: Zurich
Day 2: Bellinzona (train to Italy next day morning)
Day 3 – Day 6: Italy (flight to Paris next day morning)
Day 7 – Day 9: Paris
Day 10 – Day 21: Switzerland, planned route:
– Montreux (1 night), day trip to Geneva
– Bettmeralp (2 nights)
– Grindelwald (4 nights), day trip to Jungfraujoch and Lauterbrunnen
– Lucerne (3 nights), day trip to Engelberg and Chur
– back to ZurichMain activity: Hiking (beginner to moderate), Small walks, Small to medium sized town walks.
The main concern:
1. What is the most suitable month for us to do this? At first, our plan is end of June to mid of July, but it seems a lot of friend advise to go from mid May. The problem is, our friends did not do any hike / minimum hike.
I have read somewhere that on May, still a lot of hiking paths are closed.
So, from experienced travelers’ perspective, which one is better?mid May to mid June / mid June to mid July? I need this as I have to purchase air tickets, preferably in near time
2. Weather-wise. I know this has been asked numerous times and as we experienced in New Zealand previously, the weather IS unpredictable. However, looking from our itinerary, which month can we go to maximize our experience?
3. May I know how to make a “plan B” (in case of bad weather). I do not see many options in Switzerland doing indoor stuff. Coming from big cities, we do not like malls 🙂
4.Any feedback/advice on the itinerary above?
We’d love to hear any response from you all 🙂
Thanks for reading
Regards,
R
