Travel – Lake Lucerne (Luzern) Switzerland

Driving towards Luserne, this was our first peek at the Swiss Alps

in Summer.

How chocolate box is the scenery?

And have I mentioned how great the chocolate is?

Here’s an old apple tree and a traditional Farm house on our way to

Mt Stanserhorn.

After a picturesque funicular and cable car ride we arrived

at the restaurant on Mt Stanserhorn.

After going out on the observation deck, we followed the trail

up to the summit. The sounds of the cow bells added to the

magic of the afternoon.

This is the famous Dying Lion of Lucerne monument.

It was built in the 1820’s by Bertel Thorvaldsen to honour

the 700 Swiss Guards who died during the French Revolution.
