train.svg Climate-friendly travel
Travel by public transport such as train, bus or boat. Switzerland has the densest public transport network in the world. You can reach any destination easily and conveniently by public transport.
summer.svg Saving energy and resources
Observe energy and water-saving measures in your accommodation, such as switching off lights and electronic devices when not in use and limiting the washing of towels and bed linens.
benefit_0.svg Support for local products and companies
Opt for accommodation, restaurants, and stores that use local products and are run by regional companies. In this way, you strengthen the local economy and promote short transportation routes.
spring.svg Respect for nature
Respect flora and fauna by disposing of your waste properly, not leaving hiking trails, and protecting sensitive ecosystems such as lakes and forests. Take nothing with you except for photos and memories and leave nothing but footprints.
hiking.svg Hiking and cycling
Explore Switzerland in a sustainable way by using hiking and cycling as a means of transportation. There are numerous well-marked hiking and cycling trails that take you through breathtaking landscapes.

Avoid buying single-use plastic products such as water bottles and instead use reusable drinking bottles made of materials such as glass or stainless steel. Also take a reusable shopping bag with you to avoid plastic bags.
