Savor a variety of global cuisines across the resort. Parisa serves modern Persian fare, while Spices offers bold dishes from across Asia. Osteria Alpina Terrazza celebrates Italian comfort classics while Verbena Restaurant & Bar showcases highlights from all resort kitchens. Cap the evening with a cocktail and cigar at the Lakeview Bar & Cigar Lounge.

Unwind at the Waldhotel Spa, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame alpine views. Relax with a massage or scrub, or try the hydrothermal circuit which includes saunas and cold plunges. Sign up for an outdoor yoga class overlooking the lake or break a sweat in the fitness center.

The sprawling resort offers tennis, golf, hiking and biking. Watch a film at the resort’s private cinema or enjoy a summer concert during the Bürgenstock Festival. Try a cooking class, blend botanical gins or sign up for a helicopter ride above the Swiss Alps for a vineyard tour.
