Swiss here, can confirm hiking, but only in the mountains, it's too hot elsewhere.
But I'm in Scotland right now, and it's definitely pints with the lads here as usual. To he fair, their summer is also very average, mostly cool and it's looking like it could be raining any moment now 24/7.
Scotland: autumn 11 months of the year, taps aff at 15° and fatal heatwave at 20°
Thing is, it may be less hot but at high altitudes you'll get some nasty sunburn real fast if you forget your sunblock
It's because the sunlight reaches you faster at the high altitude.
Plus the air is thinner
