Lucerne in winter

#falladventures Lucerne in winter is a picturesque fairytale destination, with its medieval Old Town dusted in snow, and the surrounding Alps providing a dramatic backdrop. It's an ideal base for both city exploration and mountain adventures, particularly known for its Christmas markets and scenic mountain excursions. Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke): The iconic covered wooden bridge is even more photogenic against a snowy backdrop and is beautifully illuminated at night.
