Lucerne: Mount Pilatus – The Legendary Dragon Mountain

Discover the majesty of Mount Pilatus, Lucerne’s legendary mountain, on an unforgettable journey through the heart of the Swiss Alps. Wrapped in myth and framed by spectacular Alpine scenery, this iconic peak is a place where legends come to life.

From the summit, enjoy views of Lake Lucerne and 73 Alpine peaks, with free time to explore. Choose your descent: Silver Option: Return back to Kriens by cable car, where your driver-guide will be waiting for you. Gold Option: Experience the thrill of the world’s steepest cogwheel railway to Alpnachstad, followed by a scenic cruise across Lake Lucerne.
