Take a walk on the scenic Lake Geneva Shore Path. Stretching 26 miles around the lake and hugging the shore line, the path takes visitors past lush gardens with fall colors and historic mansions. Many of the homes belong to famous moguls of the Chicagoland area like the Wrigley family (as in ‘gum’) or Richard Driehaus, well-known Chicago billionaire and ardent preservationist. The homes are so posh and over the top that Thrillist named Lake Geneva one of the top best lake towns in the world. Expect to see picturesque boat ramps and docks with yacht boats lazily lounging on the water. Several statues and public sculptures along the way give the path an artistic touch. Keep in mind that some of the terrain can get a bit hilly, so it’s advised to wear sturdy walking shoes or boots.
