On the Swiss side, the cycle path runs along the railway a lot, which makes it a bit monotonous

The cycle path always runs along the railway. The wide cycle path is very comfortable to ride on, the surface is great, and you also have a great view.

A lovely walk along the water and through the park. I went for a swim in the lake afterward. A very quiet and tranquil morning.
