Best Day Trips From Geneva
- An hour’s drive northeast of Geneva along the lake, Lausanne is home to the International Olympic Committee, and the Olympic Museum is a wonderful place to immerse yourself in global sports history. The city also enjoys a trendy, if eccentric, art scene. Case in point is the Collection de l’Art Brut, a museum of offbeat pieces created by society’s outsiders.
- Gruyeres is a destination for cheese-lovers, as Gruyere cheese was named for this medieval town. Tourists can watch the cheese being made at La Maison du Gruyere, then stroll up the hill to the Castle of Gruyeres to catch a picturesque view of the valley.
