Altitude International Camps are one of the most prestigious summer camp companies in Switzerland and offer an outstanding summer programme to children aged 7 – 14 years.
Our English and French language camps provide children with a fantastic opportunity to mix with Native tutors and fellow campers whilst developing language skills in a fun and positive environment. During the camp, children will build their confidence whilst also acquiring the fundamental skills of conversation, vocabulary, and grammar.
Our class sizes are extremely small, allowing every child to receive the required personal attention from our fully qualified and professional teachers who all have a wealth of experience coaching children from all around the world.
Our Mountain Adventure camp is designed for children who love to be outdoors, who want to get stuck into exploring and wish to discover key life skills at the same time. Small groups and age-appropriate activities contribute to a sense of community within the camp and foster a sense of teamwork and self-confidence among the children.
Children will practice various activities such as fire building, map reading, compasses, biking, climbing, hiking and more!
Every afternoon and evening will include an exciting selection of activities, sports, team building games and excursions for all the children whether they are booked on the Mountain Adventure or Language Camp.

Everything was so good. All the teachers were very kind.
Our kids enjoyed with all the activities. We plan to go back again next summer.
Thank you so much for your review, it was a pleasure having you all and working with you on a bespoke programme to suit you and your family. We look forward to seeing you again next summer.
The camp was very well-organised. The teachers were friendly and took excellent care of our kids. I like the size of groups, which gave the kids opportunity to learn as much as possible. I'm sure we will return next year. Only thing I would recommend is to watch after the kids, so they have proper lunch and be strict about eating warm lunch. On the other hand each nationality has different food requirements..
Thank you all of you for great time,
Pavla Batrlova
