Description
Weggis and Vitnau are charming little villages located at the foot of Mount Rigi on the shores of the beautiful Lake Lucerne. Each village is located only 10 minutes apart and only 40 minutes by boat to the splendid city of Lucerne. Each village enjoys flower-decked lakeside promenades allowing you to soak up the village atmosphere. There is a lively ambience about the place and you are greatly placed for exploring the rest of Lake Lucerne onboard the many paddle steamers.
