Lucerne during the Christmas season becomes a contemplative city of lights, while its enchanting Christmas markets are brimful with handmade gift ideas. The scents of cinnamon and mulled wine accompany you on your tour through its alleys, and at the KKL Luzern you'll find a unique Christmas fairytale world complete with an ice rink offering views of the city, the lake and the mountains.
Skate your way through Advent: the ice rink on festively illuminated Europaplatz in front of the KKL Luzern is a great place to show off your skating prowess between 24 November and 2 January 2020.
