World-famous, beautiful, charming and exciting, the Alps often sound more like movie stars than mountains. Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Slovenia and Switzerland each offer an assortment of winter and summer sports, National Parks, and scenic tours on this legendary mountain range arcing 750 miles from Genoa to Vienna. Sample the region’s richly flavored mountain cheeses, comforting rosti, and the beloved communal dishes of fondue and raclette. Sip festive drinks like schnapps, glühwein, and punsch to name a few. The Alps boast castles and gardens, spas and yodeling, alpine cowbells and schuplattein dancing. Across distinct mountain cultures and abundant attractions, the Alps are extraordinary even when you’re not wearing skis. Raise your European vacation to its greatest heights in the Alps
