Destination Profile
Hugging the gleaming waters of Lake Zurich in a fold of the northern Swiss Alps, this one's got some serious style. For years it's been a global banking and trade hubs, which has flooded the old city with elegant haute couture shopping and sleek fine-dining restaurants. But even if you're on the hunt for cheap flights to Zurich from Australia and don't have oodles to spend, there are enchantments galore. You don't need to break the bank to sip coffees under the Romanesque spires of the Grossmunster, you can still swim in the shadow of craggy mountains, still delve into the cultural heritage of Le Corbusier and others. Alternatively, bargain tickets on this route could be your chance to hop on the Glacier Express to the ski fields that roll down the Matterhorn and stylish St Moritz.
Feeling the pull of the Alps? Tie up the boots and hike Uetliberg, where sweeping panoramas of Lake Zurich unfold around grass-green meadows and pine woods.
