Why go

Exposed glacial potholes and older marine fossils put very different periods of Earth’s history side by side. The displays and underground rock world add more to investigate than the outdoor geology alone. It is particularly rewarding if you want to understand the landscape behind Lucerne’s scenery, then continue to the nearby Lion Monument.

What to look for

  • The combination of exposed geology, displays and the underground rock world makes the visit useful in mixed weather.

Useful to know

  • Allow about 120 minutes on site; travel to the place is additional.
  • Pair the geological displays with the nearby Lion Monument on a northern-city walk.
