Your journey begins with the beautiful Lake Zurich, with its crystal-clear waters and scenic lakeside drive, offers a peaceful journey through charming Swiss villages, rolling hills, and panoramic Alpine views. A highlight along the way is Rapperswil, known as the “town of roses,” where visitors can explore the medieval Old Town, stroll through fragrant rose gardens, and admire the beautifully preserved Rapperswil Castle from outside . Perched above the town, the castle’s historic stone exterior and elevated position provide stunning views over the lake, nearby islands, and the picturesque rooftops below, making it a perfect blend of nature, history, and Swiss charm.
