  Layering is good. Turtleneck top and/ or Micro fleece top (LlBean )wth wind jacket and fleece head band worked great on our visit to these sights. I did wear jeans. It is a dry cold so not uncomfortable. Light weight gloves. Two years ago it was snowy at Matterhorn and Jungfrau. Headed back to see Jungfrau again on Rhine River cruise in June!!! Hope it is sunny this year for all.

  What about footwear for the trip? Were good sneakers enough or do we take up space with hiking boots?

  Sneakers are all you need for Matterhorn and Jungfrau.

  Suggestions for Switzerland trip/ for free time
  We arrived a day ahead and had dinner on patio of Royal Plaza. Lovely path right there to walk around lake. We all swam in lake as it was hot day. It was Montreux Jazz Festival so we enjoyed the music. Took short walk into town and went into Fairmont Plaza hotel. Took a ferry ride around the lake( did not get off but picturesque towns
  for lunch( easy to get on and off)
  Interlaken has best chocolate shop called Schuh ( recommended by Swiss neighbor) also good coffees /food.
  Zermatt has great restaurant called Walliser( they take reservations)very near Mont Cervin hotel.
  Lugano - took ferry around lake to enjoy scenery, lovely swim area near hotel
  Lucerne- enjoyed the Rosengart Collection( Picasso,Klee,Monet,Cezanne)
  Enjoy this scenic trip!
