Looking for a unique itinerary during your trip to Switzerland? Try using the free public barbecue spots located all around! You can easily find them around mountains, lakes, and other places. If you buy drinks, meat, and other necessary ingredients from the supermarket in advance and grill the meat, it will be a delightful experience. Saving on food expenses in the expensive Swiss market is a bonus! You can buy more than a pound of pork belly for less than 20,000 KRW at Coop, which is great.

#summerdestinations **Weggis**: My experience in Weggis was truly enjoyable. Nestled on the shores of Lake Lucerne, the town offers stunning natural scenery and a peaceful atmosphere. The charming streets, picturesque lakeside views, and friendly local ambiance make it a perfect destination for relaxation and exploration. The area is also known for its pleasant walking trails and outdoor activities. Overall, it’s a great spot for a serene getaway.

📍The Bürgenstock Resort on Lake Lucerne is built on a mountain and features a cliff path constructed between 1900 and 1905. The path extends from the hotel along the cliff to the 🌟Hammetschwand Elevator. The cliff path is 2.2 kilometers long, winding along the mountainside and offering stunning views of Lake Lucerne along the way. ❤The Hammetschwand Elevator, at 1,132 meters, is the highest outdoor elevator in Europe. Taking the elevator to the top allows you to continue walking along the mountain path, accompanied by the sound of cowbells and the smell of cow dung, a truly Swiss experience🇨🇭! Difficulty level: 0, scenic beauty level: subjective.
