"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"

The access from Luzern is convenient. While I went sightseeing, the souvenir shop at the station kindly kept my suitcase for me. The staff there were very friendly and kind, and I ended up buying some souvenirs afterward. The view from the mountain was beautiful. Although it was cloudy at first, the clouds gradually cleared, and I was able to fully enjoy the scenery.

Absolutely breathtaking! My last summer trip for the year and so glad we made the train ride up here. Low key we didn’t hike up only down but that was more than enough to make some memories I’ll cherish for a life time.

Really enjoyed our ride up the funicular to the top. We then used the restroom on the top, had a quick meal, took a few photos, and then begun our descent. We walked as far as we could on the day down before getting tired and joining a funicular stop down. Along the way there were a few homes that opened as mini stop areas for food. No ticks no bugs, really great to be at a high altitude. Plenty of cows and bells welcoming you along the way.

May 2025: first time visiting the Rigi, Switzerland. Took the train and then the Funicular to the top. Spent some time walking around before heading down to a restaurant for a great Rösti (grated potato). Amazing views from the summit of the lakes and other surrounding mountains.

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.

One of my favorite mountain :) You can take the tram all the way up to the near top of the mountain. The tram takes about 10-15 minutes to reach the top.

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!

Mount Rigi, known as the "Queen of the Mountains," offers a truly unforgettable Swiss experience. Starting your journey with a scenic boat ride from Lucerne across Lake Lucerne sets the perfect tone—relaxing, picturesque, and peaceful. Upon arriving in Vitznau, you board a charming cogwheel train that winds its way up the mountain, offering breathtaking views all the way to the summit. At the top, you're rewarded with panoramic vistas of the Swiss Alps, lakes, and rolling green hills. Whether you're hiking, enjoying a coffee with a view, or simply soaking in the natural beauty, Mount Rigi is a must-visit. It's an ideal day trip that combines nature, history, and authentic Swiss charm.

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.
