The Alps in the Summer

While the Alps are most famous as a tourist destination when they’re covered in snow and skiers, the Alps in summer offer a different and equally lovely experience. If you’ve got a passion for the outdoors, there’s no place on earth that’s quite like it.

With holidays abroad stating to look more likely in the months ahead, the Alps are a great place to consider. Soaring mountains and beautiful lakes combine to create an idyllic backdrop, while mild temperatures mean it’s comfortable enough to enjoy everything that the great outdoors of the Alps has to offer.

From watersports and hiking to more adventurous options like paragliding and caving, the dramatic scenery of the Alps offers all sorts of exotic ways to enjoy it.

In some areas, ski lifts operate in the summer months as well as through the winter, offering a relaxing way to climb into the highest parts of the mountains and enjoy the views on a gentle stroll.

At the other end of the spectrum, many tour operators offer multi-day hiking tours, allowing you to climb deep into the mountains and stay in remote mountain huts.

And for those less inclined to adventure, there are plenty of more sedentary activities on offer - from enjoying a glass of wine on the shore of one of the Alps’ stunning lakes, to sunbathing, shopping and sampling the delicious Savoyard cuisine.

Whether it’s adventure or relaxation that you’re after, the spectacular setting of the Alps makes a great background for your summer getaway.

And if you enjoy everything the Alps has to offer all year round, perhaps investigating the opportunities offered by an Alpine investment property would appeal to you. The opportunity to enjoy this beautiful part of the world and earn income from rentals might be appealing, if the Alps have stolen your heart!
