Description

Experience the breathtaking beauty of Switzerland with a scenic round trip from Lucerne to the legendary Rigi, known as the Queen of the Mountains. Your journey begins with a relaxing boat cruise across the stunning, fjord-like waters of Lake Lucerne, taking you to the charming lakeside village of Vitznau.

From Vitznau, board the historic rack railway and ascend to Rigi Kulm, where panoramic views of the Swiss Plateau, the Black Forest, the Vosges Mountains, and the majestic Alps await you. Enjoy time at the summit to soak in the natural splendor or explore the mountain trails at your own pace.

Descend from Rigi Kulm to Rigi Kaltbad, then glide down to Weggis by cable car, marveling at the sweeping vistas along the way. Afterward, return to Lucerne by boat, completing a memorable circuit through some of Switzerland’s most picturesque landscapes.

Flexible departure times throughout the day allow you to tailor your adventure to your schedule, whether you prefer a half-day or full-day excursion. Please note that during scheduled maintenance periods, the cable car will be replaced by an alternative route via Vitznau.

This self-guided tour includes all essential transportation: second-class boat rides, rack railway, and cable car journeys. Food, drinks, and a tour guide are not included, giving you the freedom to explore at your own pace. Secure your spot now and embark on an unforgettable Swiss mountain adventure!

Good to know

From 18 - 22 November and 25 to 29 November 2024 as well as from 10 March to 4 April 2025 and 17 to 28 November 2025 the cable car from Rigi Kaltbad to Weggis is not operating due to maintenance work. During this time the excursion to Rigi will be made via Vitznau for both the outbound and return journeys. As soon as there is snow on the Rigi, we recommend that travellers in wheelchairs travel via Vitznau. Passengers who are dependent on an electric wheelchair are also recommended to travel via Vitznau. Low-floor trains generally run from Vitznau, making it easy to get on and off the train.
