What to do in the Swiss Alps in the rain? Go for a drive around the beautiful lakes.

Far across the other side, we spotted a long waterfall near a big building. We found it on Maps as including a restaurant, so we drove over, up a windy mountain road. We missed the turn and soon came head to head with a bus that wasn’t about to yield the too narrow road. After some hurried reversing down the hill, and a seven point U turn, we then found the car park for the waterfall. The road to the restaurant required a pin code, only given to hotel guests. So, off we trekked, through the forest, past the beautiful falls, with the hope of lunch at the end.

We looked a bit like a couple of drowned rats, by the time we found the restaurant, but they let us in. The meal and veggie soup were well earned and enjoyed. They charged €8.50 (about AU$14) for a bottle of water. It cost more than the cappuccino or soup! Fresh water is the one thing that they have in abundance here 🙃.

Charging:

No EV charger in the car park, but our battery was near full from yesterday’s charge.
