The Swiss Border refers to the international boundaries that separate Switzerland from its neighboring countries: France, Germany, Italy, Austria, and Liechtenstein. This border stretches approximately 1,852 kilometers and is characterized by diverse landscapes, including the Alps and various rivers. Crossing the Swiss Border is facilitated by numerous checkpoints, where travelers may encounter customs and immigration controls. Switzerland is part of the Schengen Area, allowing for easier movement between member countries, although it is not an EU member. The border plays a significant role in trade, tourism, and cultural exchange.
