Pilatus - The Golden Round Trip From Lucerne
Pilatus - The Golden Round Trip From Lucerne
From Lucerne, drive to Kriens, where you board the panoramic gondolas to Fräkmüntegg. Change for the Dragon Ride aerial cableway and enjoy jaw dropping views out of the panoramic windows, specially designed to give the feeling of flying. Once at the top of Mt Pilatus (2,132 m a.s.l), immerse yourself in the interactive Dragon World experience, venture down the Dragon Trail or opt for a short hike to the summit (weather permitting). Relax on the panorama terrace and admire magnificent views over the surrounding peaks of the Swiss Alps and the blue lakes in the valleys below.
Treat yourself to a typical Swiss lunch at one of the different restaurants. The highlight of the day is a thrilling descent on the world's steepest cogwheel railway (48% gradient) down to Alpnachstad. Board a public boat for a lovely 1-hour cruise on beautiful Lake Lucerne and admire the spectacular landscape from an entirely different angle. End the excursion at the port in Lucerne or enjoy a relaxing coach ride back to Lucerne.
