Discover the breathtaking beauty of Switzerland on this unforgettable day trip from Zurich to Mount Rigi, the 'Queen of the Mountains'. Enjoy an adventure day from Zurich, beginning with a picturesque coach ride over the scenic Albis Pass and along the shimmering shores of Lake Lucerne to the charming resort town of Weggis on the Lucerne Riviera. Here, you’ll board an aerial cableway that lifts you to Rigi Kaltbad, continue your ascent via Europe’s first-ever mountain railway to the summit of Rigi-Kulm, at 1,797 meters above sea level. At the top, marvel at breathtaking views of 13 lakes, and immerse yourself in stunning panoramas showcasing the majestic Alps and picturesque meadows.
