South of Bern and Luzern lies the grand Alpine heart of Switzerland, a massively impressive region of classic Swiss scenery - high peaks, sheer valleys and cool lakes - that makes for great hiking and gentle walking, not to mention world-class winter sports. The Bernese Oberland is the most accessible and touristed area, but beyond this first great wall of peaks is another even more daunting range in which the Matterhorn , marking the Italian border, is star attraction, offering skiing all summer long. The wild summits and remote valleys in the southeastern corner of Switzerland shelter the world-famous mountain resorts of Davos and St Moritz . Note that very little happens in the low seasons of April-May and October-November - shops and hotels may be shut, cable cars may be closed for renovations, and smaller resorts may be virtually deserted
