    My wife and I will visit Montreux for 3-days to experience their Xmas Markets. What else should we consider visiting while we are there? Thanks

    Further to Janelle’s very helpful reply, for a description of the trip Janelle has in mind read ‘Day Three’ of the trip report posted very recently by CabinJon.  But note the cautionery tale in the first paragraph of ‘Day Four’
