"Sparkling water" Genval by cadzand

Genval Travel Guide: 16 reviews and 32 photos

Water village

At the start of the last century, the superb lake at Genval was but a succession of streams and ponds through which the aptly named silver stream, the Argentine, wended its way…
The Château at the border of the lake was built in 1904 by the "Société Minérale des Eaux", to create a spa.

The calm and tranquillity of 1904 have been maintained, for the well-being of travellers from all around the world, as well as for the swans which still glide gracefully on the lake.

    Wish I had been with you for that birthday dinner at that sweet little restaurant. I like the little intimate places w/ local chefs and menu...as opposed to fancy big restaurants and hotels.

    een weekje/weekend in Hotel du Lac moet zeer weldadig zijn, Gini! Prachtige foto's! Thanks for visiting my Texel page: I can recommend such a 1-week course parachute jumping! Bes....

    Ik zeg niet 'neen' tegen een weekendje Château du Luc! Hoewel de locatie van de Guillaume Tell ook subliem is!
