Lakes & Mountains Holidays

From soaring peaks to picture perfect lakes, some of the world’s most beautiful landscapes provide a pleasantly tranquil experience. Seek out a serene escape, away from buzzing cities and crowded beaches, to relax and re-charge on a lake or mountain holiday.

Ride through alpine meadows aboard a mountain train for unforgettable views to the Swiss resort of Zermatt, or soak up views of the crystal waters and the green pastures that sit beneath the towering Matterhorn’s slopes. Fall for the charming shorelines of the Italian Lakes, or spot grizzly bears near breathtaking Lake Louise. Perhaps take in crisp mountain air in the snow-capped alpine paradise of St Moritz, or ride a gondola-like pletna into the heart of Lake Bled to tiny, tear-shaped Bled Island. Whatever your tastes are, whatever the season, the spectacular scenery and fresh air of a lake or mountain holiday will leave you at once recharged and fulfilled.
