And now the good news: if you stick to the rules, you&#8217;re in for what is probably the most beautiful network of roads in all of Europe. On a <strong>Switzerland roadtrip<\/strong>, passes like the Furka or the old cobbled Tremola twist between glaciers so dramatically that you&#8217;ll be pulling over to take photos every few kilometres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve put together a <strong>10-day loop by your own car<\/strong> that doesn&#8217;t skip a single major Swiss icon. You&#8217;ll pass Europe&#8217;s largest waterfall, explore the Jungfrau region, stop by Lake Geneva and climb the <strong>most legendary mountain passes<\/strong>.

id=\"When_to_take_this_trip\"><\/span>When to take this trip<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Timing your Switzerland roadtrip is absolutely crucial, because a large part of our route runs over high mountains. The ideal window for the complete loop opens <strong>only in mid-June and lasts roughly until early October<\/strong>. If you set off earlier, you&#8217;ll most likely run into closed barriers and have to make awkward detours through tunnels or rely on car-carrying trains. The legendary <strong>Furka and Grimsel passes<\/strong>, for example, don&#8217;t open until 29 May 2026 \u2014 and at exactly nine o&#8217;clock in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even trickier is the popular Sustenpass, which usually opens dead last. For 2026 the <strong>official opening date for the Sustenpass is set for 12 June<\/strong>, so if you&#8217;re planning a June trip, definitely factor this in. It&#8217;s a similar story with the historic Tremola road on the Gotthard, which typically wakes up from its winter slumber only during June. Always double-check the current road conditions just before you leave on the official portal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alpen-paesse.ch\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">alpen-paesse.ch<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to seasoned travellers, the most beautiful experiences await you <strong>at the end of June or during September<\/strong>. In June the mountain meadows are incredibly lush with flowers, the peaks are still dusted with leftover snow and <strong>the roads aren&#8217;t as crowded<\/strong>. September, in turn, offers very stable weather and gorgeous autumn colours. July and August are a safe bet when it comes to open roads, but you&#8217;ll have to put up with <strong>huge crowds of tourists<\/strong>, the highest accommodation prices and hellish tailbacks at the major tunnels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1201\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d.jpg\" alt=\"Practical info: car, transport and budget\" class=\"wp-image-238443\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-1536x1153.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/prakticke-info-auto-doprava-a-rozpocet-b2aae40d-1392x1045.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Melike B \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Practical_info_car_transport_and_budget\"><\/span>Practical info: car, transport and budget<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you put your foot down, you&#8217;ll need to sort out a motorway vignette. Switzerland has <strong>no weekly or monthly option<\/strong> \u2014 it sells only an annual vignette for CHF 40 (around \u00a336). The good news is that it&#8217;s valid for a full 14 months. Buy it conveniently online as an e-vignette, but <strong>be extremely careful of scam websites<\/strong>. The only official and safe portal with no surcharges is <a href=\"https:\/\/via.admin.ch\/shop\/dashboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">via.admin.ch<\/a>, where you simply link it to your number plate. Note that you&#8217;ll cross several countries on the way, so check the toll and vignette rules for France, Germany and Austria too if your route passes through them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speed limits are a chapter all of their own, and the cameras <strong>forgive absolutely nothing<\/strong>. The measurement tolerance is just 3 to 7 kilometres per hour. If you exceed the limit in a built-up area by a mere 5 km\/h, get ready to pay CHF 40 (about \u00a336). Going 11 to 15 km\/h over will already cost you CHF 250 (around \u00a3225), and <strong>the fines reliably reach you back home in the UK<\/strong>. On travel forums you&#8217;ll find cautionary tales of people who got a bill for $500 at home for minor overspeeds and rental-company fees. Drive strictly by the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What will pleasantly surprise you, on the other hand, is the cost of fuel. Switzerland has a lower fuel duty, so <strong>petrol is cheaper here than in neighbouring Germany<\/strong>. You&#8217;ll pay roughly CHF 1.90 per litre, which is brilliant news for your budget. The practical advice is clear: <strong>fill up the tank before crossing into the Alps<\/strong>, breeze through Germany, and top up again once you&#8217;re near the Swiss border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parking takes a bit of planning, because <strong>you&#8217;re not allowed to drive into many mountain resorts at all<\/strong>. Famous Zermatt, iconic Wengen and picturesque M\u00fcrren are completely car-free. If you&#8217;re heading to the Matterhorn, you&#8217;ll have to <strong>leave the car in the huge terminal in T\u00e4sch<\/strong> for CHF 17 a day and continue by shuttle train. It works similarly in Lauterbrunnen, where the car park costs CHF 18 for 24 hours and a cable car or rack railway takes you up to the surrounding villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along the way you may run into situations where a car-carrying train comes in handy. It&#8217;s a great experience and saves you hours of detours. The <strong>car train under the Furka pass<\/strong> runs from Realp to Oberwald for CHF 33 and the trip takes just 15 minutes. Another very useful link is the <strong>L\u00f6tschberg between Kandersteg and Goppenstein<\/strong>, which for around CHF 28 quickly whisks you from the Bernese Alps straight into the Valais. I&#8217;d recommend buying tickets through the official website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sbb.ch\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">sbb.ch<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The budget for a trip like this isn&#8217;t the smallest, but it can be cleverly optimised. If you travel as a couple, a <strong>10-day roadtrip will set you back roughly CHF 3,000 to 4,500<\/strong>. The biggest expense, surprisingly, isn&#8217;t petrol but cable cars and accommodation. A trip to the big summits like Gornergrat or Jungfraujoch can easily cost CHF 100 to 250 per person. <strong>You&#8217;ll save a huge amount on food<\/strong> by shopping at Coop or Migros supermarkets, where you&#8217;ll find excellent ready meals and self-service restaurants with menus around CHF 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1201\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e.jpg\" alt=\"Day-by-day itinerary\" class=\"wp-image-238445\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-1536x1153.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/itinerar-den-po-dni-d69e727e-1392x1045.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Melike B \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day-by-day_itinerary\"><\/span>Day-by-day itinerary<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This itinerary is designed so that you see all the essential highlights without backtracking the same way. <strong>If you&#8217;ve only got 7 days<\/strong>, you can easily skip Bern and Lake Geneva.

Coming from the UK, the easiest way is a Channel crossing (Eurotunnel or a ferry from Dover) and then driving east through France and Germany \u2014 many travellers split this into an overnight stop along the way. Once you reach the German\u2013Swiss border area, your first fantastic stop is the <strong>Rheinfall near Schaffhausen<\/strong>, the largest waterfall in all of Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: Stop here for an hour or two, <strong>walk along the viewing platforms<\/strong> and let yourself be awed by the enormous mass of thundering water. If you enjoy boat trips, I&#8217;d recommend hopping on one of the little boats that takes you right up to the rock in the middle of the falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the afternoon there&#8217;s just a <strong>short hop of barely 100 kilometres<\/strong> to gorgeous Lucerne. This town sits right on the shore of a vast lake and is ringed by Alpine peaks. In the evening, take a stroll to the <strong>iconic wooden Kapellbr\u00fccke bridge<\/strong>, which is beautifully lit up, and soak in the laid-back atmosphere by the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e.jpg\" alt=\"Day 2: Lucerne \u2192 Jungfrau region\" class=\"wp-image-238447\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-2-luzern-jungfrau-region-3ea72d9e-1392x928.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Ilia Bronskiy \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_2_Lucerne_%E2%86%92_Jungfrau_region\"><\/span>Day 2: Lucerne \u2192 Jungfrau region<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Give yourself the morning to explore Lucerne&#8217;s old town. Don&#8217;t miss the <strong>famous Lion Monument<\/strong>, carved straight into the sandstone cliff, said to be the saddest piece of stone in the world. Then get back in the car and set off on the <strong>roughly 70-kilometre drive<\/strong> over the scenic Br\u00fcnigpass towards Interlaken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: The route takes you past the <strong>gorgeous turquoise lakes of Lungern and Brienz<\/strong>. Stop at one of the many viewpoints, because the colour of the water here looks like someone tipped a bucket of paint into it. Around midday you&#8217;ll reach the Lauterbrunnen valley, which is quite rightly nicknamed the <strong>valley of 72 waterfalls<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Base yourself right in the valley, <strong>leave the car in the car park<\/strong> and head off to admire the enormous Staubbach waterfall, which plunges nearly 300 metres right above the village. If you get hungry along the way, stop for lunch \u2014 <strong>I&#8217;d recommend trying the traditional r\u00f6sti with cheese<\/strong>, a delicious potato dish that will reliably keep you going for the rest of the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad.jpg\" alt=\"Day 3: Jungfrau region (no car)\" class=\"wp-image-238448\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-3-jungfrau-region-bez-auta-e8d77bad-1392x928.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: G N \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_3_Jungfrau_region_no_car\"><\/span>Day 3: Jungfrau region (no car)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today your car gets a rest and you head off to <strong>discover the mountains on foot and by rail<\/strong>. The whole Jungfrau region is woven together with a perfect network of rack railways and cable cars. <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/?p=238010\">Lauterbrunnen<\/a> makes the perfect base for trips up to the surrounding villages of Wengen or M\u00fcrren, <strong>which you simply can&#8217;t reach by car<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: If you&#8217;ve got a generous budget, <strong>take the rack railway up to the famous Jungfraujoch<\/strong>, the highest railway station in Europe. It&#8217;s a fairly pricey treat, but the view of the longest Alpine glacier, the Aletschgletscher, is said to be more than worth it. You can easily sort tickets through resellers too, for example on <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/doporucujeme\/getyourguide\/\" class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"GetYourGuide\" data-shortcode=\"true\">GetYourGuide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who want to save, there&#8217;s a <strong>gorgeous walk from M\u00fcrren to Gimmelwald<\/strong>. Along the way you&#8217;ll have the famous Eiger, M\u00f6nch and Jungfrau peaks constantly in view. Towards the evening, head back down to the valley and <strong>treat yourself to a proper cheese fondue<\/strong>, an inseparable part of any stay in the Swiss mountains and one that absolutely everyone can enjoy, even without meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon.jpg\" alt=\"Chillon Castle near Montreux\" class=\"wp-image-238519\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-chillon-1392x929.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Giles Laurent \/ Wikimedia Commons, CC BY-SA 4.0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_4_Lauterbrunnen_%E2%86%92_Bern_%E2%86%92_MontreuxLavaux\"><\/span>Day 4: Lauterbrunnen \u2192 Bern \u2192 Montreux\/Lavaux<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the morning you say goodbye to the high mountains and set off on the <strong>roughly hour-long drive to the capital<\/strong>. <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/en\/bern-switzerland-things-to-do\/\">Bern<\/a> is a surprisingly small and incredibly picturesque city whose historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Park on the edge and <strong>go admire the famous Zytglogge clock tower<\/strong> and the six kilometres of historic arcades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: For lunch I warmly recommend <strong>visiting the legendary Tibits restaurant<\/strong>. It&#8217;s a wonderful vegetarian and vegan buffet where you serve yourself and pay by weight. They have dozens of salads, hot dishes and absolutely brilliant desserts, so there really is something for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the afternoon you&#8217;ll <strong>head to the sprawling Lake Geneva<\/strong>, about an hour&#8217;s drive away. The landscape changes dramatically \u2014 palm trees appear and you&#8217;ll feel an almost Mediterranean atmosphere. Stop in Montreux, walk along the gorgeous flower-lined promenade and <strong>get a photo by the statue of Freddie Mercury<\/strong>, who lived and worked here for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux.jpg\" alt=\"Lavaux vineyards above Lake Geneva\" class=\"wp-image-238518\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/roadtrip-lavaux-1392x783.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Lorenz Poffet \/ Wikimedia Commons, CC BY-SA 4.0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_5_Montreux_%E2%86%92_Lavaux_%E2%86%92_Tasch\"><\/span>Day 5: Montreux \u2192 Lavaux \u2192 T\u00e4sch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spend the morning exploring the <strong>iconic water castle of Chillon<\/strong>, which sits just a short way from Montreux right on the surface of the lake.

Here you can sample superb local wines paired with excellent regional cheeses \u2014 the perfect light lunch before the next leg of the journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the afternoon you get back in the car and head <strong>up the Rh\u00f4ne valley towards the Matterhorn<\/strong>. The drive to the village of T\u00e4sch takes about two hours. Bear in mind that <a href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/en\/zermatt-switzerland-things-to-do\/\">Zermatt<\/a> is closed to car traffic, so you&#8217;ll have to leave the car in the giant Matterhorn Terminal car park. <strong>You&#8217;ll pay CHF 17 a day here<\/strong> and right next door you hop on the red train that takes you straight into the centre of Zermatt in twelve minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1065\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf.jpg\" alt=\"Day 6: Zermatt and the Matterhorn\" class=\"wp-image-238451\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf-700x466.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf-696x463.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-6-zermatt-a-matterhorn-b4bff9cf-1392x927.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Bran HAO \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_6_Zermatt_and_the_Matterhorn\"><\/span>Day 6: Zermatt and the Matterhorn<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today is dedicated entirely to one of the most famous mountains in the world. <strong>The Matterhorn with its crooked pyramid<\/strong> is the one you know from the Toblerone wrapper, but in real life it feels far more imposing than you&#8217;d expect. You don&#8217;t need a car in Zermatt \u2014 you can get everywhere on foot or by the <strong>brilliantly run cable cars and rack railways<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: You&#8217;ll get the best view of the Matterhorn by <strong>taking the rack railway up to the Gornergrat summit<\/strong>. The ride takes about half an hour and at the top you&#8217;re rewarded with an incredible panorama of dozens of 4,000-metre peaks and enormous glaciers. The ticket costs quite a bit, but the experience is absolutely priceless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you prefer hiking, <strong>ride the cable car up to Sunnegga<\/strong> and set off on the famous Five Lakes trail. In good weather, the Matterhorn reflects so perfectly in the surface of Lake Stellisee that you won&#8217;t want to stop taking photos. In the evening you can simply <strong>take the shuttle train back to T\u00e4sch<\/strong>, where your accommodation is cheaper, and save yourself a fair bit of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5.jpg\" alt=\"Day 7: T\u00e4sch \u2192 Furkapass \u2192 Tremola \u2192 Lugano\" class=\"wp-image-238452\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-7-tasch-furkapass-tremola-lugano-3255f6e5-1392x928.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Igor Meghega \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<!-- LKM_GYG_CARD start q=\"roadtrip svycarsko\" lang=\"en\" rendered=\"2026-06-16T02:32:38+00:00\" v=\"1\" -->\n<style id=\"lk-gyg-styles\">\n@import url(\"https:\/\/fonts.googleapis.com\/css2?family=Playfair+Display:wght@700&family=DM+Sans:wght@300;400;500;600&display=swap\");\n\/* === LK GYG karty \u2014 CRO redesign 2026-05 (namespace .lkx-) ===\n   C\u00edl: vy\u0161\u0161\u00ed CTR (hero + v\u00fdrazn\u00fd social proof + ak\u010dn\u00ed CTA, m\u00e9n\u011b \"reklamn\u00ed\").\n   Injektuje se inline do prvn\u00edho markeru postu (refresh_cards.py --inline-css). *\/\n.lkx-module, .lkx-module *{box-sizing:border-box;margin:0;padding:0}\n.lkx-module{\n  font-family:'DM Sans',-apple-system,Segoe UI,Roboto,Georgia,sans-serif;\n  max-width:860px;margin:2.5rem auto;color:#1f2328;\n}\n\n\/* HEADER \u2014 lehk\u00fd editorsk\u00fd, \u017e\u00e1dn\u00fd bannerov\u00fd blok;

Today you&#8217;ve got <strong>roughly 230 kilometres of absolute driving heaven<\/strong> ahead of you. From T\u00e4sch you head up the valley and soon start climbing the famous Furkapass. This road shot to fame in a James Bond film and <strong>offers perfect hairpins with a view of the Rh\u00f4ne Glacier<\/strong>. Make sure you stop at the iconic Belv\u00e9d\u00e8re hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: From Andermatt, don&#8217;t carry on along the new road \u2014 instead <strong>turn off onto the historic Tremola road<\/strong>. It&#8217;s more than 11 kilometres of cobbled road from the 19th century that twists through dozens of tight bends towards the Gotthard pass. Drive very carefully, ideally 20 to 30 km\/h, but <strong>you mustn&#8217;t miss this experience<\/strong>. You&#8217;ll also avoid the hellish queues that routinely clog the Gotthard tunnel for hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve conquered the passes, you&#8217;ll drop down into the canton of Ticino, where you&#8217;re <strong>instantly hit by an Italian vibe<\/strong>. The architecture changes, palm trees grow everywhere and people speak Italian. In the evening you&#8217;ll arrive in the town of Lugano, set on the shore of the lake of the same name and offering <strong>wonderful Mediterranean ease<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27.jpg\" alt=\"Day 8: Lugano and surroundings\" class=\"wp-image-238453\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-8-lugano-a-okoli-2b886b27-1392x928.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Santiago Bernhard \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_8_Lugano_and_surroundings\"><\/span>Day 8: Lugano and surroundings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, take a break from the long drives and enjoy the south. <strong>Lugano is an immensely elegant town<\/strong>, often nicknamed the Swiss Monte Carlo. Stroll along the long lakeside promenade, enjoy a great Italian espresso and <strong>simply watch the boats drifting across the lake<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: Take the funicular up to the top of Monte Br\u00e8 or San Salvatore. From both hills there&#8217;s a <strong>fantastic view of the whole lake<\/strong> and the surrounding mountains. In the afternoon, definitely take a boat trip to the picturesque fishing village of Gandria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for food, here in Ticino you&#8217;re in <strong>Italian-cuisine heaven<\/strong>. I&#8217;d recommend popping into a cosy local pizzeria for a proper vegetarian pizza or fresh pasta. The quality of the food here is absolutely on par with Italy \u2014 you&#8217;ll just pay the typical Swiss premium for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1086\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37.jpg\" alt=\"Day 9: Lugano \u2192 Engadin (St. Moritz)\" class=\"wp-image-238454\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37-700x475.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37-768x521.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37-1536x1043.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37-696x472.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-9-lugano-engadin-st-moritz-db9e6a37-1392x945.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Alexandru MnM \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_9_Lugano_%E2%86%92_Engadin_St_Moritz\"><\/span>Day 9: Lugano \u2192 Engadin (St. Moritz)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After breakfast you head east into the canton of Graub\u00fcnden. There are <strong>roughly 120 kilometres of driving<\/strong> ahead, which you can shorten by cutting through a sliver of Italy past the little town of Chiavenna and then over the Maloja pass. Alternatively you can take the <strong>more northerly route over the San Bernardino pass<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 Tip: Around midday you&#8217;ll reach the Engadin region, which is <strong>famous for its gorgeous lakes<\/strong> Sils and Silvaplana. It&#8217;s a paradise for windsurfers and kitesurfers, as a strong wind called the Maloja regularly blows here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>St. Moritz itself is a very luxurious and expensive resort, so feel free to just stroll through it and <strong>photograph the pricey boutiques and grand hotels<\/strong>. For accommodation and a calmer atmosphere it&#8217;s far better to choose <strong>one of the smaller villages nearby<\/strong>, such as Zuoz or Samedan, where you&#8217;ll find traditional houses decorated with the wonderful sgraffito technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912.jpg\" alt=\"Day 10: St. Moritz \u2192 Albulapass \u2192 home\" class=\"wp-image-238455\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/den-10-st-moritz-albulapass-praha-78628912-1392x1044.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Christopher Politano \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_10_St_Moritz_%E2%86%92_Albulapass_%E2%86%92_home\"><\/span>Day 10: St. Moritz \u2192 Albulapass \u2192 home<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The last day of your roadtrip means <strong>saying goodbye to the Alps and a long journey home<\/strong>. From St. Moritz you set off over the stunning Albulapass, which is far calmer and wilder than the other well-known roads.

Never sleep right in the luxury mountain resorts or in the centres of the famous cities. Just move a few kilometres into the neighbouring valley and <strong>the prices immediately drop by half<\/strong>. Instead of pricey Zermatt, sleep in T\u00e4sch; instead of Montreux, pick the smaller villages above the lake. Apartments with a kitchenette also bring big savings, letting you cook for yourself with cheaper supermarket ingredients. In summer it&#8217;s an absolute must to <strong>book everything well in advance through Booking<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Lucerne, a great choice is the solid <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stay22.com\/allez\/roam?aid=lukaskonecny&#038;campaign=loudavymkrokemcz&#038;campaign=roadtrip-svycarsko&#038;hotelname=Hotel%20Waldst%C3%A4tterhof&#038;address=Luzern%2C%20%C5%A0v%C3%BDcarsko\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow sponsored\">Hotel Waldst\u00e4tterhof<\/a><\/strong>, which sits just 100 metres from the station and the famous bridge, putting the whole city right at your fingertips.

It&#8217;s sold <strong>only as an annual variant for 40 CHF<\/strong>, which is valid for 14 months (for example, from December 1, 2025 to January 31, 2027). Buy it exclusively as an e-vignette on the official Swiss customs administration portal to avoid overpriced resellers. If you get caught on the highway without a vignette, <strong>you&#8217;ll pay a fine of 200 CHF<\/strong> and you&#8217;ll still have to buy it anyway.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040001\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_a_road_trip_through_Switzerland_cost\"><\/span>How much does a road trip through Switzerland cost?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>For a couple traveling by their own car from Czechia, budget <strong>around \u20ac2,200 to \u20ac3,200 for 7 days<\/strong>. If you go for a full 10 days, the budget will climb to \u20ac3,000 to \u20ac4,600. Accommodation and expensive cable cars will eat up most of your money, but you can <strong>save a ton by buying groceries<\/strong> and ready-made meals in Coop or Migros supermarkets.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040002\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_are_the_mountain_passes_open\"><\/span>When are the mountain passes open?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The reliable window for all passes is <strong>from mid-June to early October<\/strong>. In 2026, the famous Furka and Grimsel passes open on May 29th, but the treacherous Sustenpass not until June 12th. Road conditions can be complicated at any time by fresh snow, so <strong>always check the current status<\/strong> on the official websites.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040003\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_drive_to_Zermatt\"><\/span>Can you drive to Zermatt?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not possible, Zermatt is a <strong>strictly protected car-free zone<\/strong>. You must leave your vehicle in the huge parking terminal in the village of T\u00e4sch, where you&#8217;ll pay 17 CHF per day. From there, a <strong>shuttle train runs every 20 minutes<\/strong>, taking you comfortably to the center of Zermatt in twelve minutes. It works similarly in Wengen and M\u00fcrren as well.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040004\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_strict_are_speeding_fines\"><\/span>How strict are speeding fines?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>They are absolutely uncompromising and <strong>speed cameras have almost zero tolerance<\/strong> (just 3\u20137 km\/h). Exceeding the limit by a mere 5 km\/h in town will cost you 40 CHF, if you go 11 km\/h over, you&#8217;ll pay 250 CHF already. Cameras are everywhere, they work automatically and <strong>fines reliably arrive by post<\/strong> even to the Czech Republic, so really don&#8217;t push the pedal.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040005\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_gasoline_more_expensive_in_Switzerland_than_here\"><\/span>Is gasoline more expensive in Switzerland than here?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Compared to the Czech Republic, it&#8217;s somewhat more expensive, a liter costs around 1.90 CHF, which is about \u20ac2. Paradoxically though, <strong>petrol in Switzerland is cheaper than in Germany<\/strong>, thanks to lower excise duty. So the strategy is clear: <strong>don&#8217;t refuel at all on your way through Germany<\/strong> and calmly fill up your tank once you&#8217;re in the Swiss Alps.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040006\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_have_to_queue_at_the_Gotthard_Tunnel\"><\/span>Do I have to queue at the Gotthard Tunnel?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>You definitely don&#8217;t have to! The Gotthard Tunnel gets congested up to 100 days a year and queues can stretch for hours. During the summer months, a much more elegant solution is to <strong>exit the motorway and cross over the pass itself<\/strong>. You can even choose the breathtaking old cobbled Tremola road, which is an <strong>incredible driving experience<\/strong> that will also save you from tedious waiting in traffic jams.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781280040007\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_7_days_enough_for_the_circuit\"><\/span>Is 7 days enough for the circuit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>You can definitely do a shortened version. You can cover the route Lucerne, Jungfrau, Zermatt and Ticino, but <strong>you&#8217;ll have to skip Bern and Lake Geneva<\/strong>. If you want to see all the main highlights at a relaxed pace and not spend long hours in the car every day, <strong>I recommend setting aside a full 10 days<\/strong> \u2013 the experience is absolutely worth it.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Set off on an epic Switzerland roadtrip by car.
