Extend your Swiss Alps ski experience, visit Lucerne
Lucerne City is truly called the “Heart of the Country”. Thanks to its location, Lucerne is ranked among the prettiest cities in the world. Therefore, it is a central point to start or end your trip in Switzerland.
Lucerne is a charming city on a picturesque lake surrounded by majestic mountains. Thus, it captures the visitors with its magnificent panoramic views. Your pre or post-ski trip to Lucerne can give you the most rewarding aspects of any other ski trip to Europe.
Lucerne is best known for the wooden bridge spanning the river to connect the city. The most famous and Europe’s oldest one is the Chapel Bridge dating back to the 14th century. This pedestrian bridge is decorated with pictures representing Lucerne’s history.
All along the lakeside are located many cafes and restaurants, where you can relax and admire the incredible view.
Your Swiss ski vacation in Switzerland will certainly become unforgettable by adding a few more nights in Lucerne.
