Exploring Lucerne Switzerland

Lucerne is a popular destination in Switzerland. Located on the south shores of Lake Geneva, you can drive or ride one of the trains on the major railway lines near the Italian border. It's about an hour or so from either Bern or Zurich and makes an ideal day trip, and can also offer plenty to see and do if you stay a few days.

Lucerne's most famous attraction is the Chapel Bridge which was erected in 1333. This medieval bridge is just one of many that straddle the Reuss River, and can be recognized by its water tower with the octagon roof. A fire in 1993 almost destroyed the bridge, and fire damage can still be seen on the 17th century pictorial panels under the eaves.

Lake Lucerne is a beautiful lake near the center of Switzerland, home to swans and other wildlife. Gardens along the lakeside are a wonderful place to enjoy a picnic and spend time with loved ones.

Local Culture and Artistic Indulgence

If you enjoy museums, Verkehrhaus is all about mobile things. Planes, trains and automobiles on display in their museum are dedicated to Switzerland's history of transportation. There are many displays, rides and simulators, as well as an IMAX theatre and a planetarium in this popular museum.

The dying Lion is a famous monument carved out of rock in memory of the deaths of the Swiss mercenaries in France in 1792. Mark Twain once described the Lion of Lucerne as the most moving rock monument he had ever seen and to this day thousands of tourists visit each year.

If you like Picasso you will want to visit the Picasso Museum where you will find about 200 photos of Picaso himself, as well as some of his art. You will also see paintings by Paul Klee, Cezanne and Chagall, amongst others.

Fun in The Mountains

Mt Pilatus offers excellent views of the lake and city by taking the world's steepest cog railway, the cable car, or gondola to the top where you can spend the day and dine in the evening if you wish. If you want to hike there are plenty of trails to explore. There is also a rope park and a toboggan run for the young at heart.

Visiting Mt Titlis gives you the opportunity to ride the world's first revolving cable-car which offers a breath taking view of the glacier there. With snow all year round on Mt.Titlis, the Titlis Rotair, as it is known, and the Ice Flyer Chair Lift, give you the chance to ride over the glaciers and see them from a unique perspective.



In Switzerland, another beautiful lake to visit is Lake Geneva, which is a short train ride from Lucerne. At the south end of Lake Geneva you'll find Vevey and Montreux Hotels, home to celebrities like Charlie Chaplin, and host to famous musical groups like Queen and Stevie Ray Vaughn.

In Montreux Switzerland, the Jazz festival is something you'll talk about for years to come. If that's on your itinerary, then you will find a trusted tour guide by calling the Golf Hotel Rene Capt. A wonderful 4 star hotel on the shores of Lake Geneva. This Montreux Hotel offers free bicycles for guests and other perks if you only ask. Phone: +41 (0)21 966 2525
