Introdução

Warm rays of sunshine, fragrant meadows of flowers and chirping birds are all signs that spring is awakening on these 12 hikes.

Hiking through fragrant meadows

The hike starts in Heiden and winds its way through flower-filled meadows to the “five-country vista”, where hikers are treated to awe-inspiring views of deep-blue Lake Constance and the surrounding countryside. From there, the destination in Rorschach is just a stone’s throw away.

Hiking along the blooming Waldstätterweg

Picture-postcard scenery around Lake Lucerne – where hiking is particularly beautiful in spring.

Hiking through a sea of white flowers

Hike along the Daffodil Trail above Montreux in May and you will find yourselves immersed in a sea of flowers – while being treated to stunning views of Lake Geneva.

Hiking against a background of glorious cherry blossoms

Hikers marvel at the Fricktaler Chriesiweg cherry trail in spring and enjoy the cherry harvest in summer.

Hiking in the Ticino spring

Hikers on San Salvatore, Lugano’s very own mountain, will find themselves mesmerised by a stunningly beautiful floral display from San Grato botanical gardens all the way down to Morcote.

Hiking around Lake Zurich

A contrasting walk between country farm dwellings and country mansions. Cornfields and pastures converge with mansion dwellings –whereas pure nature with erratic boulders and waterfall beautify the way to the Küsnacht Tobel.

Hiking to waterfalls

Dreamy waterfalls await hikers venturing into the Nozon Gorge near Romainmôtier.

Hiking along the German-French linguistic divide

Stroll through the romantic Galtern Valley and treat yourself to a café au lait in the Old Town of Fribourg – bienvenu au printemps!
