Butterfly Hunting in Montreux Switzerland

Butterfly Hunting in Montreux Switzerland - Gray Metal Statue of Man Raising Hand Near Dock

Later this summer, scores of literary mavens from all over the world will converge on Montreux Switzerland to celebrate Vladimir Nabokov's life and works. The anniversary of his death is 2nd July.

Only a few will be able to afford the thousands of dollars to stay in the hotel room where Nabokov spent the final years of his life. And a very similar few (if any) will be able to access the museum where his butterfly collection is curated.

Others may wish to recreate Nabokov's daily hike through the meadows surrounding Montreux collecting butterflies. Is this now a regulated activity? If so, where can one obtain the necessary license?
