Introdução
Unlimited freedom. Switzerland was born when the good people of Uri, Schwyz and Unterwalden formed an alliance at the Rütli. Here, in Central Switzerland, is the Schöllenen Bridge which made north-south travel across the Gotthard range possible, and here, in 1871, Europe's first cog railroad up to Rigi marked the beginning of tourism as we know it.
Verão
Liberdade sem limites. A Suíça nasceu quando os grandiosos povos de Uri, Schwyz e Unterwalden formaram uma aliança no Rütli. Aqui, na Suíça Central, fica a Ponte Schöllenen, que tornou possíveis as viagens norte-sul varando toda a extensão de São Gotardo; e foi aqui, em 1871, que a primeira ferrovia de cremalheira da Europa, que ia até Rigi, marcou o início do turismo como o conhecemos.Sítios históricos e paisagens encantadoras são abundantes, do monumento de Guilherme Tell a imponentes picos de montanhas, de cidades a remotos vales alpinos, de monastérios barrocos a cânions desertos. Surfistas desbravam o vento e as ondas, barcos a vapor deixam belíssimos rastros nos lagos por onde passam, e parapentes coloridos preenchem o céu. Trens de montanha e bondes suspensos conquistam os picos. Esta é a Suíça Central, a Suíça da liberdade e das férias.
Inverno
Lucerne, the gateway to the Alps, opens the door to a very special corner of the world. The city lies nestled among the most beautiful ski areas in the region – all reachable within just one hour's travel. The roots of the Swiss Confederation and 21 of the most appealing traditional winter sport areas in the country can be found around Lake Lucerne. Snow lovers certainly get their money's worth: 500 kilometres of slopes (in total), 8-kilometre sledging track (Melchsee-Frutt), 12-kilometre descent with a 2000-metre difference in altitude (Titlis), 40 kilometres of cross-country ski tracks (Andermatt) and 1 big heart for winter sport enthusiasts.
Verão
Historic sites and enchanting countryside abound, from the monument to William Tell to commanding mountain peaks, from cities to remote Alpine valleys, from baroque monasteries to deserted canyons. Surfers brave wind and waves, lake steamers leave majestic wakes, colourful paragliders dot the sky. Mountain trains and suspended cable cars mount the peaks. This is Central Switzerland, the Switzerland of freedom and holidays.
