Here and there but not quite everywhere!
We decided to do a hike down to the Riffelsee lake in the late morning from Gornergrat. It was quite beautiful. We decided to continue onward to Riffelberg rather than returning from the nearby Rotenboden station. We passed by a smaller but even more beautiful lake on our way. Ultimately, we ended up hiking for much longer and further than we had planned!

We decided to take the boat today from Montreux to Saint Gingolph for lunch, then continue onward to Vevey before heading back to Montreux. This loop can be done by riding one boat and is described by CGN, Lake Geneva’s boat operator, as the Riviera Tour.
