WinterPlease note that during the winter it is advisable to bring snow chains, and it is a good idea to practice using them before you arrive. Also, several mountain passes close during the winter so be sure to check when planning your itinerary.
Motorway Tax
If you are arriving from a neighboring country and plan to use the motorways, you are required to pay a motorway tax. A ‘vignette’ can be purchased at the border. More information on rules of the road and travel is available from the Swiss Touring Club at www.tcs.ch.
