Discover Scenic Views on the Grand Tour of Switzerland

While we drove to various Swiss destinations during the last one and a half weeks, we stumbled upon many photo spots of the Grand Tour of Switzerland. I wasn’t familiar with these photo spots until recently, so I wondered what they were about.

The photo spots along the Grand Tour of Switzerland are marked with specially designed red frames at key scenic locations. These iconic red frames serve as photo points, guiding travelers to the best vantage spots for capturing the country’s stunning landscapes and landmarks. Here’s how to easily recognize these spots:

  1. Red Photo Frames: These frames are large, free-standing installations placed at designated points, offering a perfect photo composition of the landscape. They feature the “Grand Tour of Switzerland” logo and are shaped like a red shield, making them easily identifiable.
  2. Strategic Placement: The frames are positioned in areas with panoramic views, often including famous landmarks like mountains, lakes, castles, or historical towns. You’ll know you’re in a scenic spot as soon as you see one.
  3. Maps and Guides: Many guidebooks, maps, and the official website for the Grand Tour provide detailed information on the locations of these photo points, making them easy to locate as part of your road trip.
  4. Signs Along the Route: In addition to the red frames, there are road signs along the Grand Tour route indicating you’re on the right track, often leading toward or highlighting upcoming photo stops.

These photo spots allow travelers to take full advantage of the most picturesque views along the tour, ensuring you don’t miss the iconic shots of Switzerland.
