Description

Set off from Lucerne on an unforgettable day trip to Mount Rigi, Switzerland’s legendary “Queen of the Mountains.” Begin your adventure with a scenic boat cruise across the sparkling waters of Lake Lucerne, soaking in the serene Alpine landscape as you glide toward Vitznau.

Arriving in Vitznau, board the historic cogwheel train, Europe’s first mountain railway, and ascend to Rigi Kulm’s summit. Here, panoramic 360-degree views of the Swiss Alps await, along with time to explore hiking trails, visit the peaceful mountain chapel, or relax at a mountaintop restaurant.

Continue your journey to the charming, car-free village of Rigi Kaltbad by cogwheel train. Stroll through the village square and admire the Mineralbad & Spa, a masterpiece by Swiss architect Mario Botta. For those seeking more adventure, an easy hike leads to the Känzeli viewing platform for breathtaking vistas.

Descend by aerial cable car, enjoying sweeping views of Lake Lucerne and the surrounding peaks. A short walk brings you to Weggis, once described by Mark Twain as the most charming place, where you can capture stunning photos of the Lucerne Riviera before your relaxing boat ride back to the city.

This fully guided tour includes all transportation—boat, cogwheel train, and cable car—and is led by a professional multilingual guide. With carbon-balanced operations, you can enjoy your Swiss adventure responsibly. Secure your spot now to experience the magic of Mount Rigi from Lucerne—availability is limited!
