Description
On this self-guided tour, you'll experience Lucerne's very own mountain.
Experience the magic of Mount Pilatus on a small-group tour in a comfortable panoramic bus. This breathtaking Swiss landmark is steeped in legend: said to be the resting place of Pontius Pilate, home to a petrified guardian, and the site where a dragon stone fell from the sky in 1420.
Your journey begins with a scenic gondola ride from Kriens, followed by 'Dragon Ride' cableway, designed with large panoramic windows for a sensation of flying. From the summit at 2,132 meters, take in views of 73 Alpine peaks and relax.
Choose your descent:
Silver Option: Return to Kriens by cable car, where your driver will pick you up.
Gold Option: Experience the world’s steepest cogwheel train to Alpnach, then enjoy a scenic cruise across Lake Lucerne. 3 experience in one day!
Your adventure includes free time to explore Lucerne, a picturesque Swiss city brimming with charm. Stroll through the enchanting Old Town, where cobbled streets and vibrant frescoed buildings transport you back in time. Don’t miss a walk across the iconic Chapel Bridge, a true symbol of Lucerne.
