| Almost all towns have a tourist office ( Verkehrs-verein or
Tourismus ; Office du Tourisme ; Ente Turistico ), invariably located
beside or opposite the train station and always extremely useful. Most
staff speak English and are scrupulously helpful, but opening hours in
smaller towns allow for a long lunch and can be limited at weekends and
in the off-season. All of them have lists of local accommodation and
transport information, and provide local and regional maps . The Federal
Office of Topography ( www.swisstopo.ch ) has excellent 1:50,000 and
1:25,000 walkers' maps. |
