Holidays in Switzerland in November
Switzerland is a country most of which is occupied by the Alps. They are an insurmountable obstacle for cold air masses, tending from north to south, and warm, tending in the opposite direction. Therefore, it is warm in the south of the country, and cold reigns in the mountains. And you can feel the sharp change in air temperature in just a couple of hours of train travel. It is already quite winter in the highlands. Air temperature -8C. But skiers are not afraid of frosty weather. Indeed, while descending a mountain slope under the dazzling sun it gets no less hot than in summer on the beaches of Barcelona or Hurghada.
In cities, however, the proximity of winter is not felt at all. The air warms up to + 10 °. The mild temperate climate makes it possible to walk for a long time along the old streets of cities.
