Insurance
Free health treatment in Switzerland is very limited; health care generally is very expens-
ive.
If you're skiing, snowboarding or trekking, check whether your policy covers helicopter
rescue and emergency repatriation. Mountain rescue is shockingly expensive and most nor-
mal policies don't cover many outdoor activities; you'll need to pay a premium for winter-
sports cover and further premiums for adventure sports like bungee jumping and skydiving.
Worldwide travel insurance is available at

can buy, extend and claim online anytime - even if you're already on the road.
