Luzern

ACTIVITIES

Near Lucerne is the famous Schwyz-Stoos railway with the rotating cars (see my page). Take the IC to Arth-Gildau  then the S2 to Schwyz.

FOOD

There are very unusual eating locations near Lucerne. There is a 3-course meal served aboard a cable car going from Weggis to Rigi Kaltbad. But this is only available as a group booking. The Rigi Tavolata takes place on the edge of a cliff overlooking Lake Lucerne and is held only once a year in August. Tickets are sold by lottery and auction in January.

Try the Old Swiss House for the best true veal schnitzel, their most popular dish. Located at Löwenplatz 4, Lucerne. Tues-Sat 11:30-14:30 & 18:00-23:30. See the menu here.
