"Amongst the Alps An hour outside of Zurich is Mount Rigi, one of the most stunning places I've ever seen. Departing from Zurich on a day tour, we drove by bus to Lucerne where we were lead to a cable car depot at the foothill of the mountain before continuing uphill by train. This took us close to the summit where we carried on by foot. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. The air was fresh, the lake crystal clear, the sky blue, the sun bright and the experience priceless. Once atop the mountain within the Alps, we were in awe of the spectacular panoramic views, we contemplated life and took time out for lunch at the hilltop restaurant before heading back to Lucerne by ferry before dusk. As you see here, it was a joyful day. We did flips and cartwheels amid the Alps to mark the success of our accomplished journey. It's most definitely a day I won't forget. By barbara chennault"

This was a beautiful boat ride and then train ride to the mountain. The weather was rainy, windy and hazy but you make the best of the day. We finished with a trip to the spa.

I regret not having visited this place before. After about an hour-long boat ride from Lucerne, we arrived in Vitznau. From there, we took a wonderful cogwheel train climbing up the mountain all the way to the summit of Rigi. Every stage of the journey was incredibly beautiful — a truly amazing experience. After breathing in the fresh air and soaking up the fantastic atmosphere, we walked all the way to Scheidegg while enjoying breathtaking views of the majestic Alps. The hike took over two hours, but I can honestly say I have never had a more beautiful nature walk before. We saw countless varieties of flowers and plants and greeted cows grazing on lush green meadows. The nearly ten hours passed by so quickly, I hardly noticed the time. I will definitely do this tour again very soon. Wishing all those who go a great trip in advance!

Accessible by cog-wheel train or hiking (if you're up for the challenge), Rigi is a must-visit if you love hiking and mountain views. There is a nice and short hike near the cliff overlooking Lake Zug.

I was there in winter and in fall. Each season has its wonder. The view from the top and from the cable car are breathtaking.

The Rigi (or Mount Rigi; also known as Queen of the Mountains) is a mountain massif of the Alps, located in Central Switzerland. The whole massif is almost entirely surrounded by the water of three different bodies of water: Lake Lucerne, Lake Zug and Lake Lauerz. The range is in the Schwyzer Alps, and is split between the cantons of Schwyz and Lucerne, although the main summit, named Rigi Kulm, at 1,797 meters above sea level, lies within the canton of Schwyz. The Rigi Kulm Hotel, established in 1816, is located on the summit

I visited Rigi in late December and started with a boat ride from Lucerne, which was a beautiful journey with stunning scenery. Then I took the mountain train—a unique and amazing experience. At the top, the views were breathtaking, with mountains all around and the feeling of being above the clouds. It was snowy, magical, and an unforgettable trip overall.

Just a lovely cafeteria style restaurant. Wonderful views from the deck. Good variety of made from scratch meals. Pasta dishes, sausage dishes, very nice beer and wine selections. I didn't have any but the desserts looked good. Tourists from all over the world make it an even better experience.

If you came to Switzerland in the winter and were expecting lots of snow but were disappointed, then you might want to try heading here. It's high enough that you'll likely see plenty of snow but low enough that you can still see views of the surrounding areas, particularly of Lake Luzern and not be affected by the altitude or endure bone chilling cold. The train ride is a little over half an hour from Vitznau and connects right from when the boat arrives.

Set your overall expectation low as this place is packed with tourists. After taking the cogwheel train to the summit, there were two restaurants. One is more cafe style while the other is slightly fancier. Nice view with outdoor seating but food wasn't impressive. Oh they were expensive too but hey it's Switzerland!! Glad there were some hot beverages and soup.

Foods okay. Like fairly nice cafeteria food and would have been 2 stars. The view though is spectacular and you can grab a couple libations hence the 3 stars.
