Cold freshwater walls and Swiss lake life, reached by train from Lucerne
Accommodation listings are not available for this destination yet. Use the local planning notes to choose your base.
For overseas visitors, Zurich Airport (ZRH) is a logical primary arrival point. SBB lists IR75 toward Lucerne, although some departures require changing at Zurich HB. Basel EuroAirport (BSL) offers bus 50 to Basel SBB and rail onward to Lucerne. Base first in Lucerne or Hergiswil rather than treating all of Central Switzerland as a single lakeshore. Exact transfer time varies with the chosen departure. SBB Zurich Airport; EuroAirport; Hergiswil center.
Use the Lucerne rail hub and S4/S5 Zentralbahn service to Hergiswil. The dive center is listed at Seestrasse 65 while the glassworks is a short station walk; do not assume every lake dive entry is step-free or suitable with tanks.
