The weather in Weggis
The climate in Weggis is often mild in spring and autumn. Thanks to the Rigi in the back the warmth remains and the weather is nice.
A visit in the rain is also worthwhile. When the fog over the lake Windet and the wind whistle. Even in windy and stormy weather you can eat in our restaurant Riva in a pleasant, friendly and comfortable atmosphere.
