Switzerland is beautiful year-round, but each season offers different experiences:

• April - June (Spring): BEST for first-timers! Blooming flowers, pleasant weather (15-20°C), fewer crowds, snow still visible on peaks
• July - August (Summer): Peak season, warmest weather (20-28°C), ideal for hiking, most crowded and expensive
• September - October (Autumn): BEST for photography! Golden foliage, comfortable weather, fewer tourists
• December - March (Winter): Perfect for skiing and snow lovers, Christmas markets, coldest (-5°C to 5°C)

Our Recommendation: May-June for couples/families, September for photographers, December for snow lovers!
