Sentier Aux Oiseaux

Reviewed By Bandit-One - Lucerne, Switzerland

We stayed just in the area for a couple of nights. It's a quiet part of the lake, most people heading towards Morges. If you go this way, the path will lead you through a small forest, along some beaches and also a park. All very quiet (in spring), relaxing and well taken care of. There's is also a small peninsula, a paradise for bird-watchers. It was for us a beautiful evening stroll. Lake Geneva looks amazing at sunset. But it's also a nice option to have a picknick or so. A great little area.
