Να αποφεύγεται σε θερμοκρασίες άνω των 30°C, λίγη σκιά, αλλά υπέροχη θέα

όμορφη θέα και προσβάσιμο μονοπάτι, καθώς και μια καλή εναλλακτική λύση στον καντονικό δρόμο

όμορφο μέρος στην παλιά πόλη.

It's simply beautiful here, and nature is so close to you. 👍😋

Around the middle of the 19th century, there was even talk of writing off Chillon Castle for demolition and using the stones in the construction of the railway. However, the landscape, the grand castle, and the romantic stories of the former prisoners had long captivated many, and interest in the monument's outstanding historical significance was also awakening. And so, more and more travelers visited the castle, which, from the 1820s onward, could also be viewed from the new steamships on Lake Geneva. While Rousseau had already chosen the castle as the setting for a key scene in his 1761 epistolary novel Julie ou la Nouvelle Héloïse, other writers, such as Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas, were inspired by the place, in addition to Lord Byron. The café next to the castle is now called "Byron." The French painter Gustave Courbet depicted Chillon several times during his stay on Lake Geneva, and Eugène Delacroix, who was influenced by Lord Byron's poems, as well as other artists, also painted views of the moated castle, the image of which became widely known through photography in the age of early tourism.

Magnificent view of the lake

It's already very heavily trafficked, but unfortunately it's the only way around the lake :( Well, the yellow splash of paint on the road makes you feel safer when cycling there /s

Long pass, hard at the beginning but easier at the end. Big road but it goes through without any problem.
