Rigi Switzerland - Queen of the Mountains | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
Join us at the top of Mt. Rigi in Switzerland! Get ready to see the most amazing views from the top of the world!!!
The Rigi Mountain, also known as Queen of the Mountains, offers jaw dropping panoramas of two cantons. This alpine elevation is located in Central Switzerland and it’s surrounded with three lakes – Lakes Lucerne, Zug and Lauerz. The peak, Rigi Kulm, is located at 1,798 meters above sea level and offers amazing views of 13 lakes, nine towns, many mountain summits of the Swiss Alps and even as far as Germany and France on clear days. You can also see plenty of paragliders.
It really is no wonder so many tourists have been coming to Rigi over the past 200 years. Clear alpine air, wide open spaces and walking trails definitely sound appealing. If you ever decide to visit we recommend using the cogwheel train instead of car rentals since parking spots are limited. In fact, Rigi Railways, founded in 1871 is Europe’s oldest mountain railways and also is one of the most reliable.
At the summit there is a restaurant and cafeteria, hiking trails, communications tower and various look out points where visitors can admire the view. There is also a symbolic stone in commemoration of a tie up with a mountain in China.
We went there during the summer and it was really stunning. However, it’s beautiful all year long, even in winter when it becomes a ski destination.

Rigi Kaltbad Spa - Swiss Alps, Lucerne
Lucerne Excursions: Rigi, Bürgenstock, Pilatus, Switzerland
One of the great activities that you can enjoy while in Lucerne, Switzerland is cruise on Lake Lucerne and visit Mt. Rigi. You take the boat over to Weggis and go up the mountain to Rigi by cablecar.
Please subscribe:
Switzerland playlist At the top you can walk around and enjoy the views, then take a rack railway back down to Vitznau, finally catching the next boat for a return journey back to Lucerne.
The other great mountain to visit near Lucerne is Pilatus, easily reached by boat and rail, and an enjoyable option to consider on your way to Pilatus is a stop at Bürgenstock. It's a small mountain plateau with a dramatic cliff-hugging walking trail. Most of the boats to Pilatus stop here en-route so hop off at the Bürgenstock dock, ride the funky old-fashioned funicular to the top and start hiking, following the signs to the cliff walk. This is a level path with sweeping views across the lake and at the rock face of the mountain, looking straight down about 1000 feet. You can have snacks or a meal at the restaurant other attractions on the plateau, which include more hiking trails through the forest, several newly-built deluxe hotels and a nine-hole golf course.
From Bürgenstock continue by boat and rack rail ride to the top of Mount Pilatus. You take the boat to Alpnachstad, one hour and 10 minutes, and then you ride up the world's steepest cogwheel railway to the top of Pilatus for sweeping view of the lake.
They do have a lovely rustic restaurant at the top and there's even a hotel up there that you could spend the night at. You can return back down the same way on the rack railway or for a slightly faster alternative with a totally different routing and some variety, take the cable car down the backside of the mountain to Lucerne.
