December in SWITZERLAND – THIS you NEED to KNOW!

December is a very interesting time to visit Switzerland. However, there are some important things to bear in mind. Many attractions and roads will be closed due to the Winter season. Thus, traveling in December very much differs from Summer. December is the month of Christmas! There will be many Christmas markets all around Switzerland; in Zürich, Basel, Montreux, and elsewhere. Some Christmas markets are open on a daily base, certain only for few days or on weekends. Most of the villages, small towns and cities will have beautiful Christmas light decorations, which are very enjoyable to see. December is considered peak season, surely between Christmas and new Year. Many tourists will flock to Switzerland and hotels are going to be heavily booked! It’s very important to reserve hotels months in advance and restaurants days or weeks before you plan to dine there. During December, there is a chance for snow fall, certainly up in the Swiss Alps there will be quite some snow and even white Christmas is very possible up there. In general, the weather in December in Switzerland is not so cold down in the plateau. Ski resorts are already operating, before Christmas it’s going to be rather empty but between Christmas and New Year it will be full. Most of the pass roads in Switzerland are closed during December; car train tunnels will serve as a shortcut instead. Try also the seasonal food of Switzerland: Fondue, raclette, vermicelles, fondue chinoise and many other delicacies. The many Christmas markets will offer a great selection of Christmas dishes. Traveling in December in Switzerland is surely a great idea! Bare in mind that on Christmas itself, everything is going to be closed and will reopen on 27th of December.
