HU Switzerland 2019 - August 15-18

Heike and Filippo Fania are hosting the 3rd HU Switzerland Travellers Meeting from 15-18 Aug, 2019. If you've never been to it before, here's the nudge you need. It's the perfect microadventure or shakedown trip, especially if you're newer to motorcycle adventure travel. Invite a few friends to join you there.

We're back at:
Erlebnisbauernhof Campingplatz Gerbe
Gerbe 1, 6344 Meierskappel, Switzerland
GPS: 47.12121, 8.44578

It's a stellar venue in the heart of some beautiful riding areas.

Advance online registration is open.
The earlier you sign up, the better the savings.

Hello everyone - we are happy to anounce that we get a special deal for the camping at this years HU Meeting in Swizterland. It will cost only 12 CHF per person per night - and only during the meeting. Extra nights have to be paid directly at the campsite. The 12 CHF will include water, hot showers, and free Wifi!

There is no need to pre-book, since there is enough space reserved. If you register for the event, your space is guaranteed.

Not long... please register now, if you have not and you are planning to go! This will help us and the campsite with the planning.

Public Holiday in Parts of Switzerland on 15 August

On Thursday, 15 August, shops in some areas of Switzerland and S-Germany will be closed for a holiday. In the area where HU Switzerland is taking place shops will be closed. If you see an open supermarket on the way, better get anything you need there, and don't wait until last minute with the shopping!
Friday 16 it will be back to normal.

See you soon....

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

Susan and Grant Johnson Read more about Grant & Susan's story

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
