Rigi by Mountain Railway
Vitznau, Goldau and Rigi, Switzerland
Rigi’s railways make the mountain accessible without committing to a demanding hike. Travel up from Vitznau or Goldau by cogwheel train, then choose a short walk or simply spend time with the views from the summit area. The Weggis cable car provides another connection to Rigi Kaltbad when operating. Combining a lake crossing with the ascent gives the day a pleasing variety, but check connections carefully and choose a route that matches the weather and your walking plans.
