HU Switzerland 15-18 August 2024
We are delighted to announce the 6th HU Switzerland from August 15th to 18th, 2024, in Meierskappel! This is a stellar venue in the heart of some beautiful riding areas. There are great motorcycling roads nearby and the Alps at your doorstep, with the famous Furka, Grimsel, Susten or Klausen Pass roads only a few kilometres away.
Heike and Filippo have passed the torch to new hosts Xenia Sägesser and Martin (Tinu) Strebel, two 'travel bug infected people' who fell in love in Cusco, Peru! After trips together to the Balkans, Oman, Iceland, Philippines, Indonesia, Morocco and Tanzania, they decided to 'do something big'! The resulting 3-year trip around the world is chronicled on their XT Adventures website! While travelling the world, Xenia and Tinu have told their stories at HU meetings in Australia and South Africa, and closer to home, they have been to Germany and Switzerland events, so they are well-qualified to host this event. Welcome Xenia and Tinu!
Registration is now open! This event is not to be missed!
Further information about the program and registration can be found here. Join us and let's experience unforgettable travel moments together!

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.
