The Lake Line

The Lake Line is a rail and nature experience for all. Peace and a sense of ease set the rhythm. The host of locations with their historical centres invite you on journeys of discovery. Culture fans can visit a museum and food lovers can stop in a cosy restaurant and be spoiled with local specialities. The Thurbo trains run between the locations every half an hour. Tip: enjoy panoramic views from your seat on the lake or river side.
