Endleleni, kunezindawo ezihlukahlukene zokuma nokulala ezindaweni zokuhlala ezihlukene (amaqhugwane asezintabeni, amahhotela, izindlu zezivakashi, izindawo zokudlela, amapulazi) kanye namathuba amaningi okuthola ubunjalo beqiniso bezindawo ezihanjwayo.

Inikeza abantu ithuba lokuzwa izindawo ezihlukahlukene ze-alpine kanye nemvelo eholidini lokuhamba ngezinyawo, kusukela ezifundeni zezintaba eziphakeme kuya ezigodini eziluhlaza ze-Alpine kanye nezindawo zaseMedithera eningizimu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kuwuhambo oluhlala njalo olungena emlandweni wase-Italy enyakatho yezwe, ithuba eliyingqayizivele lokuthola amasiko ahlukene, amasiko ngisho nezilimi endaweni encane nangaphakathi kwezwe elilodwa.
