The '''2007–08 Swiss 1. Liga''' was the 76th season of this league and at this time was the third tier of the Swiss football league system. The 1. Liga was the highest level of amateur football, although a number of teams had professional or semi-professional players in their ranks.

Format
There were 49 teams in this division this season, including eight U-21 teams which were the eldest youth teams of the professional clubs in the Super League and the Challenge League. The 1. Liga was divided into three regional groups, group 1 with 17 teams, group 2 and group 3 each with 16 teams. Within each group, the teams would play a double round-robin to decide their positions in the league. The three groups winners and three runners-up, together with the two best third placed teams, then contested a play-off for the two promotion slots. The U-21 teams are not eligible for promotion. The last placed three teams in group 1 and the last two placed teams in the other two groups would be relegated. The third last team in group 2 and group 3 were to have a play-off, the loser of which would also be relegated.
