Countryside holidays enable you to explore nature as a whole : wild untouched sceneries as well as landscapes shaped by hundreds of years of farming activity (forest and pasture maintenance, natural stone wall, hedges...).
You will enjoy sampling locally sourced products, showing your children where their food comes from, walking through the vineyards, waking up to the song of birds, discovering the farm animals...

On our website, the label stands for places that preserve the natural resources of the environment whilst providing high quality rural tourism.
Each member of rural-tourism.ch may show on their page the quality labels related to nature that they have been granted by independent certification authorities.
