Black Point Estate and the Lake Geneva Historic Preservation Commission are teaming up to offer Legends and Landmarks: A Walking Tour of Lake Geneva this summer. The tour features historic buildings and landmarks around the downtown area, as well information about some of Lake Geneva's historic figures.
Tours will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays, from June 18 to September 10, 2015, and will be conducted by staff and volunteers from the Wisconsin Historical Society. Each tour will last about 90 minutes, beginning and ending outside the Riviera on Wrigley Drive on the lakefront.
A brochure was created that includes a map, highlighting the route of the walking tour. It features buildings and homes on the tour along with background information on each of the buildings. The public is welcome to take a self-directed tour with the booklet or they can go on a guided tour, led by the volunteers. The free brochures are available at Lake Geneva City Hall, the Lake Geneva Chamber of Commerce and Black Point Estate.
The walking tour costs $8 per person or $15 for two people. Tickets can be purchased in advanced through Black Point Estate or the evening of a tour.
