Switzerland's Alpine geography creates extraordinary weather diversity within its compact borders. The country's climate varies dramatically with altitude, from the mild lakeside conditions of Lugano in the Italian-speaking south to the Arctic-like conditions at the summit of the Jungfraujoch at 3,454 meters. The Alps act as a major European weather divide, separating the wetter, cooler north from the warmer, sunnier south.
