The “Ufschötti” – the extensive expanse of greenery by the lake – is the place half of Lucerne heads for in the summer A 200-metre-long strip of sandy beach gives all its visitors real seaside vibes.

Ufschötti is just a few minutes south of Lucerne’s main train station.

The bathing spot on Lake Lucerne offers bathing enthusiasts and sun worshippers expansive areas where they can lie back and relax with a few trees offering plenty of shade and a large sandy beach. On these green spaces, visitors can – while of course taking others in the area into consideration – enjoy a game of football or frisbee or cook up a storm over the barbecue.

During the summer season, the Ufschötti kiosk and Ufschötti beach bar offer hot and cold snacks and drinks. Ufschötti also has showers and toilets available for visitors to use.
