Rigi

The queen of the mountains, high up into the impressive alpine world.

Rigi is one of the most beautiful classics around Lucerne. Even the journey there is part of the experience: from the Lucerne boat piers, you travel across Lake Lucerne to Vitznau or Weggis and switch there to the Rigi railways. From Vitznau, the cogwheel railway takes you towards Rigi Kulm, while from Weggis you glide up by cable car to Rigi Kaltbad. At the top, mountain air, wide-open paths and that special view over the lake, the city and the Alps await.

Perfect for anyone who wants to combine Lucerne with a day trip into the mountains. Rigi suits families, couples, friends and anyone who likes to travel flexibly. Walk, hike, stop for a bite to eat, bathe in the mineral spa, or simply enjoy the view. Depending on the route, you can combine boat, cogwheel railway, cable car and train, planning your outing to suit your day.
