Most Beautiful Places in Switzerland 😍
|
Switzerland is one of the most beautiful places you can visit in Europe. The heart of the Alps is packed with towering mountains and INCREDIBLE landscapes. Mother Nature has really outdone herself here! The only issue is that Switzerland can potentially be a very expensive destination to travel to. But that's where The Broke Backpacker comes in, Reader... this is where we thrive. Let's go backpacking in Switzerland. There are a lot of questions one needs to ask when planning a trip. Which places to see, where to stay, how to do it as cheap as humanly possible without compromising your experience... So let's start with some light inspiration before we delve deeper.
Not sure where to go? If a place exists, we've probably been there. Browse through our travel guides ^ Where to Stay in Switzerland ☝️Right, moving on. Switzerland. Switzerland is a relatively small country, however, it’s packed with loads of epic areas to stay in. And each offers something unique. This can make deciding where to stay in Switzerland a difficult task, one could say. Unless one would have done all the homework and was about to present you a mega guide on the subject...
How to Make it Cheaper 🤑This is where things start to get tricky. There is a way to make your travels in Switzerland cheaper, but in general, it'll probably be more expensive than most other places you've been to. Make sure you budget accordingly so you're not frustrated when you find out a pint costs 7€... Check out our dedicated Switzerland budgeting guide, or our complete Swiss backpacking guide for more info. You can take it a step further and cheapen your experience by tapping into local networks such as Couchsurfing or Worldpackers. You could, for example, volunteer at a hostel for part of the trip. And that'll likely save you a couple hundred bucks already. Pick a beautiful location, send out some requests, and wait for the magic to happen...

Ahoy, friends :) Recently, I went on a lifelong dream trip to visit my best buddy in the world in Colorado... We was gonna hunt, we was gonna drink beers in the woods, and we was spend 6 days rafting self-sufficient down the Colorado river... It WAS gonna be freaking amazing... And then BOOM! BAM!
