Gstaad & Leysin | Switzerland

Our Swiss location represents the original SILC experience and remains one of our most established programmes. Delivered across four campuses in the alpine regions of Gstaad and Leysin, it is designed specifically for international school groups of 15 to 150 students. Set in inspiring mountain environments, the programme combines leadership development, teamwork, and 21st century skills through immersive outdoor and experiential learning, creating a balanced and meaningful residential camp experience.

An authentic Swiss experience for schools

Our mountain campuses offer a safe and secure learning environment supported by experienced professional staff who are dedicated to student growth and well-being. Students and accompanying school staff stay in authentic Swiss chalets with modern facilities, enjoying an all-inclusive experience that covers accommodation, full board, activities, equipment, transfers, and health and accident insurance.

Housing and accommodation

Students are accommodated in comfortable, en-suite rooms within traditional Swiss chalets located on private and secure mountain campuses. Female and male students are housed separately by floor, with camp staff on duty throughout the night. A dedicated staff member of the same gender stays nearby and is responsible for student safety, behaviour, and overall well-being. Fresh and nutritious meals are prepared in-house by our kitchen team and cater to all dietary requirements, including vegetarian and religious diets.

Transportation from Geneva & Zurich Airport

Programme fees include airport pick-up and drop-off from Geneva or Zürich Airport. Transfer times are approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes from Geneva Airport and around 2 hours from Zürich Airport, ensuring smooth and efficient travel for both students and staff.
