Wake up refreshed, have a hearty breakfast and put on your hiking boots. That’s how a day of hiking begins at a Swiss Youth Hostel. The adventure you decide for yourself begins right outside the door. Do you take the next mountain railway or just start walking? Will you take the post bus to the starting point of your preferred hiking trail or will you take the train to the next town? Here, you can do whatever you like.

Last summer and the many hikes were great. Of course, you can already start thinking about your hikes for next year. But now in winter, the best way to get around in the great outdoors, besides skis and snowboards, cross-country skis or toboggans, is to use snowshoes. When the time comes, we'll present you with some great summer offers here again. In the meantime, take a look at our winter page right now and find out all about winter fun in Switzerland. Deal?
