In Switzerland we recommend the three resorts of Wengen, Zermatt and Interlaken for some of the best walks in the country. Wengen and Zermatt are set against the Jungfrau - one of the main summits in the Bermese Alps - and both have charming, traffic-free centres. Interlaken is a bustling town with shops and cafes, but all three have the same thing in common... fantastic walking.
