Located between Zurich and Lucerne, Zug is a lesser-known Swiss town that offers a quiet, idyllic Christmas experience. Known for its charming old town, Zug is beautifully decorated for the holidays, complete with a cozy Christmas market.

Unlike major Swiss cities, Zug attracts fewer tourists, making it perfect for a peaceful getaway. Visit the local market for warm mulled wine, handmade gifts, and traditional Swiss treats.
