Well worth the trip out here - we did the circuit hike. First half pretty steep up and a bit muddy. Most descriptions didn’t mention but there are quite a few places to have a meal on the way including the farm at the top, as well as to refill water. Also great scenic picnic spots so worth coming for the day.

Beautiful vineyards even during winter, it is worth it if you are in the region of Montreux. My friend took me there with her car and we had a beautiful view of the lake with the vineyards. I am sure it looks even more beautiful when the weather is clear and when they are more green. It was the first week of January.

Really interesting place to take the kids for a half day excursion. The ticket gets you entry into the Papiliorama - butterfly haven, the Nocturama where you can see lots of bats and other nocturnal animals, the Jungle Trek with exotic animals (mainly birds) as well as the outdoor petting zoo with donkeys, goats and pigs, an observatory deck and a nice playground. We arrived at 10am and stayed 2 hours which gave us enough time to do it all, working around the feedings (last pic). Admission ticket - 19chf per adult, 9.50chf from 4 to 15 years old, free for children under 3. Parking - 4chf which you pay at the entrance with your admission ticket. Most is easily accessible with a pram. There is a self-serve restaurant or you can bring a picnic.

Last summer I took my four grandkids for a truly wonderful day out to see these magnificent birds fly so close over our heads. It was brilliant, the staff were good and very helpful and this year I am taking a group from a club for the experience too! Well worth it.

This is the perfect spot to go after a long day, to relax in the nature while admiring some sophisticated trees and plants. It can get busy during week-ends.

The tour of Mt Pilatus in Luzern includes an easy hike, a cable car ride, a fantastic summit hike (1 hour) with spectacular views, a ride down the steepest cogwheel train in the world (designed in 1889), and a boat ride across the lake. Wonderful, absolutely marvelous!
