What's interesting in Switzerland? What outdoor sports are there in Switzerland?

If you just go to Switzerland to see some scenery, then this trip is definitely not worth it. Now Bian Xiao will tell you what you can do in Switzerland. In fact, there are still many sights to see, but definitely don't think about outdoor activities.

Switzerland is famous for its natural scenery and is a paradise for outdoor sports.

Let me give you a detailed introduction and recommend some outdoor experiences in Switzerland.

I really don't want everyone to just take a quick tour, take a cruise or take a cable car to experience Switzerland and feel Switzerland.

on the ground

Hiking in spring and summer, snow sports in autumn and winter

(1 on foot

There are too many places to hike in Switzerland. If you choose to come in spring and summer, many peaks can consider going up the mountain by train and walking down the mountain.

For example:

Pilatus in Mount Pilatus in Lucerne, Rigi in Mount St. Regis (not tall, suitable for raising children,

Ze Matheser Matt,

Interlaken Interlaken Some lines: Schnigplatte SchinigePlatte, etc.

I will go hiking every three to five days, not only to famous scenic spots, but also to many lakes, which are also the first choice for hikers.

Such as Pilatus, Mount Riji, Sidney Guepratte's Golden Tour,

Anyone with a Swiss pass can take transportation for free. If you have time, it is recommended to come down and walk for 3-4 hours, which is also a good choice!

Rmance town (Swiss-French border,18km; Bouveret to Montreux and so on.

Count one of the pleasures of hiking: people always say hello along the way, and the most exciting thing is that more than a dozen men on bicycles say they fight with you.

Hiking map download

Someone will definitely ask about the hiking route.

I suggest you go to various scenic spots in official website to download special hiking route maps (most scenic spots also have brochures,

The above clearly introduces the average length and difficulty coefficient of each route and so on.

Pay attention to sun protection and hydration on foot. Although there will be some restaurants on the mountain, bring as much dry food as possible.

Most of the hiking roads are stone dirt roads, so be sure to pay attention to safety.

(2) Riding a bike

Mount Rigi near Lucerne is the most famous recommended place for cycling and hiking. Zermatt also has many routes suitable for cycling. In addition, two lakes in Interlaken, Lake Lucerne and Lake Geneva, are especially suitable for cycling.

For example, there is a panoramic view of Riji Mountain, and you can see the train, hiking and cycling routes in real time, which is particularly convenient.

(3 rope sparks/Selpak)

In Interlaken and Pilatus, it is suitable for children and adults to exercise their courage and overcome their fears.

Similar to the forest, there is VerticalRush, which is more suitable for adults, mainly to exercise balance and overcome acrophobia, including high-altitude jumping and high-flying swings.

(4) bungee jumping

Stockhorn in the southwest of Thun is a famous bungee jumping place. Take the cable car to the top of the mountain, 134m high bungee top, below which is the lake.

Price: 189 Swiss francs

(5) Snow sports

Skiing, sledding, hiking in the snow, etc.

If you choose to go to Switzerland in autumn and winter, it is definitely a paradise for skiers.

Many peaks near Jungfrau/Xuelang Peak have become ski resorts in winter.

Price: The specific cable car traction price varies greatly from year to year according to different months. For enquiries, please visit official website.

Snow gear rental: Snow gear rental is also very detailed. There are more than n days to choose from, such as one-day tickets to seven-day tickets. Snowboard, snowshoes, helmet, snowsuit, etc. Need to rent separately. If you want to learn skiing in a certain place, you can also choose various ski schools.

In addition to skiing, snow sports can also choose to hike with big feet, sledge, double board hiking, etc., so I won't go into details.

Besides Interlaken, several ski resorts are recommended: Zermatt, Glacier3000, Saint Moritz, Chamonix-,French-European ski resorts (2 hours from Geneva+).

On board

Mainly concentrated in spring and summer, in addition to swimming in the lake, there are also rafting (river rafting, canyon rafting and so on.

Water sports demand must be able to swim! Bring your own swimsuit. It is recommended to change before reaching the assembly point.

(1 drifting

I think you are no stranger to rafting, and most of the places you can experience are near Interlaken (Lv Qin is in the south of Interlaken and Sim is in the west of Lake Thun).

Price: usually 100 Swiss francs.

In addition to river rafting, row rowing (rowing for two) is also very popular, which is more exciting, demanding physical strength and more expensive (189CHF+).

(2) Floating swimming

You can also try a rafting trip in summer, near Bern, Bern.

In addition to rafting, there will be water swimming and a simple barbecue lunch, which is a relatively most pleasant way of water sports. Physical requirements are not high, just swimming.

Price: 1 10 CHF+.

(3 Creek Down/Jump Valley Canyon:

This sport is one of my most recommended and favorite sports! ! ! !

Bungee jumping is a sport that uses various technical means to roam in the canyon.

During the whole jumping process, you may go hiking, rock climbing, jumping, falling rocks, swimming and other activities.

This sport exists in many countries, especially in areas with dense water ridges.

In Switzerland, it is mostly concentrated near Interlaken. I have carefully studied several canyon sites near Interlaken, which are mainly divided into three levels:

Elementary: In Inerlaken, it is similar to a paradise, and you can experience some links in the process of jumping the valley, and the intensity is also the lowest. Price 100CHF+, the whole journey takes about 3-4 hours.

Intermediate: Outdoor in Grimsel, you can experience the excitement of jumping over the valley. The price is 140CHF+.

Advanced: In ChliSchliere, it is also the highest level of Interlaken jumping valley.

Focus. I played at the highest level.

Jumping into the water from the valley at an altitude of 10m, it is strange that adrenaline does not surge, and physical strength is particularly high.

The whole journey takes about 7 hours, including a simple lunch (sandwiches, drinks, etc.). , the price is 169CHF+.

It is also the most tiring exercise, and the whole body aches the next day.

Sports enthusiasts recommend the first choice haha!

sky

Divided into: plane sightseeing, skydiving, paragliding.

The most famous skydiving is near Interlaken (Zermatt also has it), and the scenery is better than Interlaken.

There are plane sightseeing and paragliding near Interlaken and Zermatt, which can be arranged according to the itinerary.

All sky sports can be experienced without basic knowledge, as long as you always follow the guidance of the coach, it is very simple.

(1 plane sightseeing flights

It is divided into plane sightseeing and helicopter sightseeing, and the price ranges from 200 to 500 Swiss francs.

There are many scenic spots that can be visited by plane, such as Jungfrau, Matterhorn, Mont Blanc and Pilatus Mountain. The duration is usually 20-30 minutes.

Tired of seeing the scenery on the ground, it's better to see it in the sky, local tyrants are the first choice!

(2) skydiving

It is also divided into airplane skydiving (395CHF+) and helicopter skydiving (450CHF,

The process is basically the same. First of all, we take the plane of 10- 15 minutes for sightseeing, and then skydive at an altitude of 4000m.

After 45 seconds of free fall, the parachute opens and glides to the ground for 3-5 minutes (similar to paragliding.

I have experienced skydiving, and the scenery in Interlaken is really beautiful.

Shooting service in addition, it is worth mentioning that if you choose shooting service?

There are two kinds of shooting, and shooting is also divided into photography and video recording. You can book photography or camera shooting separately, or both, including:

(1) The coach holds Gopro to shoot the whole process (photography or camera 120CHF, both of which contain 150CHF). The advantage is to follow the whole process, from your take-off to landing, the process is complete and the price is cheap; Disadvantages: the angle and picture are single, and the whole process is taken with facial muscle trembling, which is very embarrassing.

(b) Location shooting (photography or videotaping 180CHF, both of which contain 2 10CHF). The advantage is that he will jump first, and can capture all the gestures of your take-off and free landing in the air for 45 seconds. The disadvantage is that he will leave you when your parachute opens, and you will wait to film your landing process after landing. There is no 3-5 minutes of gliding in the air.

My choice is the second, because I think the most exciting and essential thing of skydiving is the weightlessness of 45 seconds, so the attitude in the air is also the most wanted to be recorded. Facts have proved that my choice is correct. hahaha.

(3) paragliding paragliding

Usually drive up the mountain, Interlaken and Pilatus in Lucerne have them. Zermatt can also take the train to the top floor of the Nagira Observation Deck.

Apart from running up and flying, spinning in the air, there is nothing special to stimulate. The flight time is about 20 minutes.

If you choose skydiving, then paragliding is naturally impossible.

If you don't have the courage to skydive and want to overlook the scenery from high altitude, paragliding is a good choice.

Price: 150CHF, photography: 30-40CHF.

About booking

For all kinds of sports near Interlaken, you can log on to the website to inquire about reservations: click to view, this company is very mature, the tour guide is very humorous and very relaxed every time after playing.

It is worth mentioning that during the experience, you can also make an appointment to shoot (photography or video shooting, and the prices of different levels of sports shooting are also different. You can browse the website specifically, clearly mark the price, and there is no hidden consumption.

focus

Booking tickets on any website involves the problem of picking up the plane (you need to pay extra, usually meet at the railway station in a big town: Interlaken, etc. ), but if you have a Swiss Pass, don't choose to arrange for them to pick you up. Ask customer service: the specific time and place of the local meeting, arrive on time, just wait. You can save a lot of money (sometimes round trip 10-20 Swiss francs.

For example, the airport below is skydiving. I chose to arrive by myself (first, it was much later than the assembly time, and second, it saved a lot of money. I can get off at the nearest railway station and walk there.

About language

All sports are communicated in English.

For example, none of the coaches I met were Swiss. The skydiving instructor was born in Hong Kong. He has been skydiving in Dubai before and has just arrived in Switzerland for half a year. Another example is my jumping coach, who is from Australia.

If you choose sports with high difficulty coefficient and need constant communication, such as valley jumping and rafting, your English listening level will be higher. Because once your language is not too hard, poor communication will lead to misunderstanding and affect your safety.

As for what sports are suitable for beginners, I think we should choose according to our own preferences. Every sport requires different physical and psychological qualities. Personally, if young people feel that any kind of exercise can be done, middle-aged and elderly people can consider hiking on gentle roads.
