Bike Across Switzerland

The natural beauty of Switzerland is not taken for granted by the Swiss, and because of their respect for their nature, they have designed and maintained a very sophisticated system of hiking and cycling routes throughout the country. Starting in the German-speaking cantons of Lucerne, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, we begin our journey across Switzerland, passing through many quaint Medieval town centers. We’ll pass through the cantons of Lucerne, Oberwald, Berner Oberland, and Bern as we continue through the valley and lake regions surrounded by Switzerland’s majestic “Alps”. Our two night stay in the small but bustling capital city of Bern, still has many activities waiting for us.

We’ll then continue on and get absorbed into the French-speaking cantons of Fribourg and Vaud and… voilá, begin speaking French. After an overnight in the Quaint castle village of Guyréres, famous for her cheese, we’ll head over the hills of Jorat, overlooking the entire Lake Léman (Lake Geneva) backdropped by the snowcapped Alps, and finish our journey with a spectacular descent through the beautiful Unesco protected wine terraces of Lavaux, straight down to the lively lakeside town of Morges. The tour passes through eight of Switzerland’s 26 cantons and provides you with unmatched natural beauty, insight into the political and historical foundations, and an up close and authentic experience of Swiss contemporary culture. Because most of this tour is on bicycle paths or designated bike routes, we are not only utilizing, but also contributing to the sustainability of the Swiss philosophy of human-powered travel. We are excited to be guest/hosts in this beautiful country as ambassadors to help promote this way of life.
