Dan_Lotz 0 #1 March 3, 2007 I am currently planning a 2 month europe backpacking trip in july and august i will be in St Petersburg, Moscow, Prauge, Budapest, italy and Switzerland. My question is for anyone that has done a similar trip or have jumped swiss valley before, Currently i am trying to find the best town to stay that close to the exit points and has enough stuff to do in the town to keep my girlfriend happy as she does not base jump. I will be spending 6 days or so and am fairly mobile any information is appreciated Thanks in advance! Dan"He wants to make sure God wants him to live. So he spends a lot of time asking.

There's are also two campsites which are cool as well, especially since you come in the middle of summer. For your girlfriend it is only a 10 minute train ride away to Interlaken, which is basically the outdoor capital of Europe. Plenty to do for her as well overthere. Hope this helps.
