LUCERNE AND MOUNT RIGI

ITINERARY CH13
Discover the heart of Switzerland with this unmissable itinerary!

From Milan, you will reach Lucerne, a city with a lively and culturally rich historical center. Stroll through its picturesque streets, admire its historical monuments and immerse yourself in its fairytale atmosphere.

But the real highlight of your trip is the excursion to Mount Rigi, reachable by the first cogwheel railway in Europe. Prepare to be breathless in front of a breathtaking panorama that opens up over the Alps, the 13 lakes and the entire Mitteland, up to Germany and France. A unique experience that will leave you speechless!

To make your trip even more special, I recommend reaching the starting point of the cogwheel railway with a cruise on Lake Lucerne (included in the price). An unmissable opportunity to admire the beauty of this crystal-clear body of water and its picturesque villages.
