Take every Swiss cliché - cuckoo clocks, holey cheese, Swiss Army knives and chocolate – and forget them! The one attraction that towers above everything is the staggering Alpine scenery. Whether it's the height of ski season or midsummer, the lofty peaks of this rooftop nation offer a breath of fresh air. Once refreshed and back at ground level, enjoy great restaurants, shops and nightlife in cities like Geneva and Zurich.
