Autumn in Switzerland (October)

This guide focuses specifically on the best Swiss hikes and destinations for fall colors in October. If you want a broader selection of activities, get the Swiss Summer Guide instead, which includes everything in this guide and much more.

Peak autumn colors are usually in mid to late October, but can vary based on weather conditions. I have included important tips for fall travel in Switzerland, as mountain services and timetables can be significantly reduced as we enter the shoulder season.

The guide includes viewpoints, activities, and fall hiking options for all ages and abilities. I have fall itineraries for different regions, which you can combine into a longer trip.

Our family has lived in Zürich Switzerland since 2005 and have done many autumn hikes here over the years. We hope this guide will help you enjoy all our favorite fall places in this gorgeous country.
