After the Rain Spa
Soothe urban body and soul at After the Rain Spa, a haven of peace and tranquillity in downtown Geneva, where the icing on the cake for chocolate fiends has to be a body wrap in creamy milk chocolate (Sfr140, 45 minutes) or – even better – a good old soak in a milk or white chocolate bath (Sfr180, 30 minutes).

Marzili Pools
In summer, this open-air swimming pool, beside the Aare River, is the perfect place to get a tan and kick back with the locals. The pool is a simple 25m affair, but the expansive lawns, foosball tables and sunbathing racks are often where the action is. Only strong swimmers should dip in the river itself.

There's river rafting on the Lütschine, Simme and Saane Rivers, canyoning in the Saxetet, Grimsel or Chli Schliere gorges, and canyon-jumping at the Gletscherschlucht near Grindelwald. In addition, there's paragliding off any number of mountains, bungee jumping, skydiving, ice-climbing, hydro-speeding and much more.

Therme Vals
Using 60,000 slabs of local quartzite and playing on light to amplify the feeling of space, Zumthor created one of the country’s most enchanting thermal spas, Therme Vals. Aside from heated indoor and outdoor pools, this grey-stone labyrinth hides all sorts of watery nooks and crannies, cleverly lit and full of cavernous atmosphere. Try the deep-heat Feuerbad (42°C), the perfumed Blütenbad or the escapist Grottenbad. Have a hum in the latter and enjoy the other-worldly acoustics! Sweat out all those impurities in the steam rooms.
