Passing Through After a River Cruise

Our river cruise trip ends in Basal and we plan to pass through Switzerland on our way to France. Asking for recommendations on ways to spend 2 days in the western part of Switzerland. Perhaps 2 days in Lausanne or in that general vicinity (heading in that direction). Gruyères? General sightseeing, walking or simple hiking, or a boat ride on a lake is what we are interested in doing before taking the train to the Loire Valley.

We are also ending a river cruise in Basel (September ‘23)- considering spending a few days in Murren before heading home. Visited there a number of years ago on A Family Europe trip, it was stunning and am looking forward to returning.

Another vote for Murren! We did the reverse and spent a week in Murren before boarding a river cruise in Basel.
