Sometimes, walking around a beautiful Swiss city like Geneva gets tiring...like 10 miles of walking…read moreand I gotta take a break. Yes, I usually stop at cafes and bars for my second-wind, but sometimes, I have to check out the serenity of the local parks. This park is redic. Just look at my pics and wish that you, too, had an opportunity to get tired from gadding around Switzerland and chillaxin at this park. Be like Louis R, travel to Switzerland.

Yelp Review 2026 #177:…read more A park that's easy to get to. There's a tram stop right in front of this park. There's a cafe. There are people playing games like bocce ball. Unfortunately, it was pouring when we were here and it quickly turned to hail. If you've ever experienced getting hit by hail, you know it's not a pleasant experience. That dampened my mood. My sister wanted to see the Reformation Wall and her map kept giving her wrong directions exposing us to hail while I just wanted to stay under the protection of the trees. The map wanted us to get out of the park, walk uphill, enter a gate which is the entrance of the same park! So, stay inside the park and keep walking away from the main entrance and you'll find the Reformation Wall to your left. You can't miss is. It has bas-relief and giant statues of important Reformation leaders such as John Knox, John Calvin, etc. Was it worth getting pelted by hail? Not really. Did I spend money to see it? No. If the sun was out, I'd imagine myself enjoying this park.

This is an awesome museum if you're really interested in the Olympics or if you're a child. I…read morereally enjoyed it, but I wouldn't recommend it to the average adult. The exhibits were well put together, and there was a lot of interesting information to read with fun games for children. I loved the temporary exhibit (free to the public) about running and the focus on Paris 2024. Admission was more expensive than I would have liked, even with the student discount for 14 CHF. The Olympic park outside is nice to walk around.

It's been a long time since I came through here. I created a listing to review the Olympic Games…read morebut it got merged with the Olympic Museum in Lausanne. I've actually been to this museum, funnily enough (in 2005, I believe it was, but I could be off), so I decided to post the review anyway. The Olympic Museum in Switzerland is worth a visit if you are obsessed with the Olympics but we're really not. We like the World Cup a lot. So I won't be taking Barbie back here with me most likely. It's still a pretty cool Museum and it's been a long time since I was here but it looks from the pictures like it's changed, so I'll have to consider maybe giving it another visit when I come back to Switzerland maybe next year maybe no go.

Gorgeous grounds, uncrowded, beautifully kept, pristine...and some snowcapped mountain vistas to boot. Swiss parks at their finest!

Even beyond the waterside views, however, the park itself provides a nice green space with opportunities for tranquility in spite of the crowds of people who visit at any given time. The lakeside walking path is often full of joggers, walkers and cyclists. But that should absolutely not be a deterrence. It's a wonderful place to chill for a while, especially on a nice weather day.

I usually ain't a big sucker for touristic places and lakes don't really make my heart beat faster…read moreeither, but le Lac d'Annecy is a huge exception. This lake is just the most clear, pretty and awesome I've ever seen, especially with the stunning mountains in the back. There's a super romantic bridge, you can go for a walk or run next to it, sit in the grass or go swim or just read a book in the park while watching people walk by and the lake staying as pretty as it is. - Or you can also bike across the whole lake and visit the other cute villages nearby. But, an absolute recommendation is to rent a small boat (you don't need a license for that!), drive to the middle of the lake and swim. It's not the warmest lake as it's a glacier lake, but just do it.

Despite being a major skiing destination, France isn't really known for its alpine lakes, but Lake…read moreAnnecy is one of my favourite places in France. It's very accessible, and the town of Annecy is delightful: it's touristy, of course, but tourism hasn't spoiled it, and you can still eat and stay here at reasonable cost. Every turn of a street corner seems to open up a vista of the lake. The lake itself is lovely for both lakeside walks and boating (boat hire is available at several locations, as well as larger pleasure boat trips for those who don't want to row themselves) and the scenery is stunning. There are plenty of other lakeside villages to visit if you want somewhere quieter, and there are regular buses around the lakeside road.

Grotte aux Fees, translated into English means cave of the fairies. This was the first tourist…read more"show" cave in Switzerland open to the public. It is open everyday from March 15th to November 15th, and can be seen for 8 CHF. If you take the train to St. Maurice, you need to take a short walk out of town, and about a 10 minute walk up a hill to see the cave. At the entrance to the cave is a cafe with a nice terrace, you can grab a bite of something to eat. I didn't try the cafe, so not able to provide a review for the food. Once inside the cave you walk through a narrow twisting passage for about 1,500 feet, and as you get closer you can hear the thundering water grow louder. Supposedly there are 63 twists and turns along the passage. I don't remember there being that many, but I do remember their being several. I went during the spring time as the snow was melting, which is the best time to come, as the waterfall is even more impressive. I do remember the passage being wet and needing to be careful to watch out for puddles along the way. After the final twist you come to an opening and I remember being overwhelmed by the size of the large waterfall crashing down inside the cave. The sound of the water was deafening. I wouldn't have been able to hear anyone talking to me in the room. I tried to take pictures inside, but it was very difficult to get a picture of the 50 meter- 77 meter high waterfall (the height seems to be arguable, as I have read different resources claiming different heights). I would definitely come back. The only silly thing is that whoever the current owners are, went and did something stupid. In accordance with the name of the cave, the owners put up barbie doll fairies along the path inside the cave leading up to the waterfall. Thankfully their is no stupid plastic barbie to ruin the beauty of the waterfall, and the waterfall itself erased the memory of the plastic silliness for the duration of time I was admiring the falls.
