2024 Edition! This is the ultimate 7-day itinerary for Switzerland if you want to travel by car. It is a perfect mix of hiking, beautiful villages and viewpoints. You will see some of the most impressive regions such as Zermatt, Lauterbrunnen or Lucerne. We have been living in Switzerland since 2017 and have explored a lot! We want to share our knowledge so you can have the best experience. This guide also requires some driving as we have included Zermatt. We know that most people want to see the Matterhorn, so we wanted to find a way for you to see that and also some other iconic spots. This guide also starts and ends in Zurich. This guide is only possible in summer or fall! In winter the alpine roads are closed and some of our spots are inaccessible! The recommended months are mid June - mid September. We show you the absolute highlights of Switzerland. It is hard to fit everything into a 1 week route, so we have chosen the best of the best. If you have more time to visit, we also plan an other 2 or 3 week itineraries.
