Swiss Alps

Swiss Alps stretch across southern Switzerland, covering approx. 60% of its territory, extending from the shores of Lake Geneva to the Canton of the Grisons in the southeast, and are home to many famous peaks. The Matterhorn, with its nearly symmetrical pyramidal shape, has become a symbol of Switzerland; Dufourspitze in the Monte Rosa massif stands at an elevation of over 4,600 m, even higher than the Matterhorn; the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau in the Bernese Highlands stand side-by-side, and you can take a mountain train directly to the Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe at an altitude of over 3,400 m, where you can overlook the Aletsch Glacier, which stretches for over 20 km, from the observation deck. In summer, this is a paradise for hiking, where you can walk among alpine meadows and moraine lakes, often encountering marmots and chamois along the way; in winter, it transforms into a ski resort, with ski areas like Zermatt and Saint Moritz known for their high-altitude slopes and long ski seasons. If you want to enjoy the scenery without the effort, you can take the Glacier Express, which runs round-trip between Zermatt and Saint Moritz, where glaciers, snow-capped peaks, and valleys appear one after another outside the train window.
