Yeah avalanches do occur in Switzerland but usually when there is too much weight on the surface where the snow is packed. If that helps, give me a thank you!
Where Do Avalanches Happen?
It is possible for an avalanche to occur in any place that has a mountain and plenty of snow. They occur most frequently in temperate zones. There are many avalanches near ski resorts. An avalanche is defined as a huge slide of snow down the slope of a mountain or a rock. It occurs when a there is a buildup of snow and is a common occurrence in winter. It can be triggered by many things like temperature, a loud noise, temperature or even when some layers of snow are not properly joined together.
Avalanches can also contain rock, soil or ice. If a mixture is released then that avalanche would be referred to a debris avalanche. In 1999, in Montroix in France an avalanche killed twelve people and the Mayor of Chamonix was tried and then sentenced to second degree murder because he did not evacuate the area.

Avalanches occur in the Himalayas and the Alps.
Avalanches happen when a layer of snow builds's up the Bottom layer may be very weak so it will start to slide down the mountain an build up as it goes
They happen in high mountains
They happen in europe villages. Especially Switzerland
Avalanches can happen by moving the snow a little and then all the other snow will start to move with it and start to roll like a water wave.
Were do avalanches occur not how
