Switzerland Map and Geography of Switzerland
|
Switzerland nestles between five countries: Germany to the north, Austria and Liechtenstein to the east, Italy to the south, and France to the west. It is a country famous for its natural beauty with a lot of its landscape taken up by high mountain peaks or beautiful lakes.
The Swiss Alps dominates the central and southern regions, making up about 60 per cent of the country. Bordering France is the Jura Mountain Range, less severe than the Alps and covering approximately 10 per cent of the country's area. The Swiss Mittelland lies between the two mountain ranges and is relatively low-lying. The Mittelland is the most densely populated area and is consequently of great economic importance for the whole of the country. |
