Switzerland

Switzerland, not being an EU country, is not subject to cheap or free international roaming regulations. This sometimes inflates call prices, but it is possible to save money here as well.

Grisons is one of the most important skiing cantons of Switzerland. Despite the perfectly developed road network in the area, getting here is not obvious.

When going to the iconic Zermatt or Saas-Fee, we will face the dilemma of whether to make up the journey or load the car on the train. We examine how to take a car by train in Switzerland.

The autumn infection surge triggered a series of decisions aimed at limiting the spread of the disease. What do we know and what can we expect?

In a few years, will we be able to taste winter sports in the world's third largest combined ski region? Cervinia and Monterosa Ski are in talks.

Last year Zermatt celebrated the opening of the world's highest 3-S cable car after more than 3 years of construction. We already know it's not over, as another unique construction project is starting in April.

Another record-breaking winter sports project has opened in Switzerland - this time it's a funicular in Stoos with the world's steepest gradient.

"Relax. If you can..." - this slogan will be seen everywhere in this Tyrolean resort. Ischgl is now one of the most developed resorts in Europe.

After a very hot summer in southern Europe this year, it got cold very quickly. Cold enough to let skiing resorts open their slopes. Therefore we check where you can go now to enjoy the first snow this season.

As the highest situated resort in Europe, Zermatt-Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche is, on paper, quite the attraction for the ski enthusiast. The lifts on the Plateau Rosa glacier are open nearly year-round, and the thickness of snow cover rarely dips below a meter. Still, it remains an unpopular choice among skiers, and so we set out to find why.

No, this isn't a scifi flick. One of Europe's largest resorts, Davos-Klosters, is to launch a lift which measures passenger height by means of... a laser!

Freeride? Sure. But what if one was to trade a mundane gondola for... a helicopter?
