Located on the shore of Lake Lucerne, at the foot of the Swiss Alps, the city of Lucerne is a popular tourist destination. In earlier times, this city was an important stop on the trade route over the Alps. Students enrolled in German school in Lucerne might enjoy taking a steamboat ride to Vitznau where they can then catch the cog-wheel train up Mt. Rigi, where they can get an awe-inspiring panoramic look at Lucerne. The Chapel Bridge is one of Europe’s oldest wooden bridges, makes a nice spot for a stroll. Walking along the bridge, over the Reuss River, many visitors continue on to visit Old Town where historic houses are covered in frescos. There is much to see on foot in Lucerne, from historic landmarks to modern day structures like the cutting edge KKL concert hall and art gallery. Visitors to Lucerne should take advantage of the over 250 km of hiking paths, primarily used in the summer. There are plenty of opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing and more. Lake Lucerne also has several public swimming areas available. Students taking German courses in Lucerne can expect a central European climate during their stay. This translates to warm summers and cold winters. Considered to be one of the wetter locations in Europe, visitors should be prepared for rain at any time during the year. An old legend says that it was an angel who showed settlers where to build their first chapel. With a glimpse of the scenery in this truly picturesque location, some might thing this legend is true.
