重要信息
• Wear comfortable walking shoes.
• In winter, bring a warm jacket: the wind can be strong by the lake.
• In summer, a cap or head covering is recommended.
• The stairs are narrow when climbing the cathedral towers, so no big bags.
• If you don't want to climb the towers or if you're tired, you can wait in the cathedral during the ascent.
The meeting point is in Place du Bourg-de-Four, opposite Café de la Clémence, right next to the fountain.
