When in Montreux, take a deep
breath and scan the horizon. To the South, there is Lake Geneva
(Lac Leman) blessed by the gods and crowned by the majestic Alps.
The Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn and dozens of other peaks soar
skyward 4000 m and more. To the West and East, vineyards dot the
lakeside terraces and reflect a gentle joie de vivre blessed by
Bacchus, the god of wine. To the North, there are the Prealps
where cheese making, skiing, hiking, paragliding, hot-air ballooning,
rafting, canyoning, etc. reign supreme. In the middle, a charming
city, pearl of the Swiss Riviera. What more can you ask for?
