Please kindly note that this is not a metereology, climatology or clearvoyance forum. 😉

Nevertheless, you would still find “green lush” sceneries, as this summer wasn’t too dry. Maybe slowly starting to turn into “Indian Summer” colors in October (also depending on altitude).

Piessoingaic98 Switzerland at the end of September and early October offers beautiful scenery, though the landscape begins to transition from summer to autumn. Here’s what you can expect:

Lush Green Scenery:
In late September, many regions in Switzerland still showcase lush green landscapes, especially in the lower valleys and around lakes. The higher alpine regions, however, may start seeing some autumn colors as trees begin to turn golden and red.
If you prefer green pastures, the lower and mid-altitude areas (like Lucerne, Interlaken, or Lake Geneva) are your best bet.
Weather and Climate:
Sunny Days: The weather in late September and early October can be pleasant, with mild temperatures and sunny days. However, it’s also a transitional period, so you might experience some variability. It’s not uncommon to have a mix of sunny days and occasional rain.
Temperatures: During the day, temperatures in the lowlands can range from 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F). In the mountains, it will be cooler, especially at higher altitudes where temperatures can drop significantly.
Mountain Weather: If you plan to visit the Swiss Alps, early snow may already begin to dust the peaks in October, and temperatures will be cooler. However, the weather can still be clear and crisp, offering stunning views.
Travel Tips:
Layered Clothing: Due to the variability in weather, it’s best to pack layers so you can adjust to changing temperatures.
Popular Destinations: Tourist areas like Zermatt, Jungfrau, and Lake Lucerne remain popular during this period, and you’ll find fewer crowds compared to the summer months.
Overall, late September to early October can be a great time to visit Switzerland if you enjoy a mix of lush greenery, emerging autumn colors, and moderate weather.

You just should have ommitted that link you added at the end (already reported to the moderators).
