Top 10 AUTUMN Switzerland – Highlights October November

Everyone admires the green Switzerland, but did you know how wonderful it can be during AUTUMN? Autumn is the season of colors! Indian Summer down in the plains and golden Autumn up in the Swiss Alps. The best months to experience the colors of Autumn are October and November. In general, the colors start to show during the 2nd half of October and last for around 3-4 weeks. The Top 10 places to visit in Switzerland during Autumn combine serenity, colors and pristine nature. These can be found in the Jura region, around vignards and in the cantons of Valais, Ticino, Bernese Oberland and Graubünden. Of course, everywhere in Switzerland you can find beautiful spots. Really beautiful is the village of Romainmôtier in the Jura Vaudois with its nearby waterfalls. The Tine de Conflens, Cascade du Dard and Saut du Day are embedded into a beautiful forest, which shows it’s Indian Summer vibes from their best side! Eye-catching are the vignards around Ligerz in der Jura-3-Lakes region. In particular around the pilgrimage church it is very nice to go for a hike and walk among the golden vineyards. Although there will be many sunny days, October and November do not always have good weather. In that case the Grotte de Vallorbe may be a perfect place to visit; great to combine with Romainmôtier on sunny days. The vineyards of the world famous Lavaux are also dreamy to visit. Three major spots to go to would be the villages of Epesses, Saint-Saphorin and Rivaz. They are all serene; Saint-Saphorin has the view, Rivaz the hidden gem sort of feeling. Hike among the vineyards with their beautiful golden leaves and do not forget to enjoy the view over Lake Geneva (Lac Léman), especially during the sunset when the golden leaves will glow in red. This is one of the most beautiful things to experience during Autumn in Switzerland. Definitely, consider visiting lakes: The Lac Bleu in Arolla is very eye-catching. It is surrounded by many golden larches, very similar to the Lake of Palpuogna or the Silsersee in the Engadin region. These lakes are perfect to go for hiking. Lake Sils and Palpuogna can be easily reached by car, the Lac Bleu would have to be reached by hiking. The Lagh da Saoseo (Lake Saoseo) can be reached by hike or by Postauto bus (make mandatory reservations on sbb.ch). Lake Saoseo is surrounded by green spruces and golden larches and perfectly shines with its strong royal blue color. Definitely with the ensemble of colors, this place is probably the most unique to visit during Autumn season. Autumn is though not only about colors, it’s also quite a foggy season, especially during November. You may either enjoy the mystical side of the foggy weather by staying down in the Swiss plateau and walk in the forest full of fog. However, better use this often depressing weather to your advantage and consider going up to the peaks. The Fronalpstock or Aletsch Glacier are two among many spots where you can witness the cloud inversion. Standing above the fog, above a sea of clouds. This is one of the most unique phenomena one could get to see during Autumn. The highest chance for this is usually during November. This Top 10 Autumn in Switzerland list may give you some great idea, but it shall also be kept in mind that there are plenty of other beautiful places, and also cultural events to experience during this season!
