Lake Lucerne

A collection of my favorite stops in one of Europe’s most charming lakeside towns and the Swiss metropolis of Zurich. When in Luzern, sure to walk under the 1333 AD Kappelbrücke (one of the oldest covered bridges in the world). Also included: a side trip by boat to Mt. Rigi across Lake Lucerne.

A compilation of places to stay, eat and visit for a 2-week adventure in Switzerland.

"Lucerne" in English, is Switzerland's tourism capital. Situated on the edge of its namesake lake, Lucerne provides visitors with easy access to the Swiss Alps and the surrounding region of Central Switzerland. With a charming old town, a pair of historic wooden bridges, a plethora of museums, and a famous weeping lion, there's much to see and do in Lucerne.
