Rigi Railways Day Pass, you can spend the day exploring the mountain at your own pace, stopping wherever the views catch your attention and staying as long as you like. There's no need to think about separate tickets or fixed schedules. Simply hop on and off the mountain railways and enjoy the day as it unfolds.
The pass includes unlimited travel on the main routes across the mountain. You can reach Mt.

You can also travel by cable car from Weggis to Rigi Kaltbad, adding another scenic route to your day. Each journey reveals a different side of the mountain, from forested slopes and alpine meadows to sweeping views across the surrounding countryside.
Many visitors make their way to Rigi Kulm, the highest and most famous viewpoint on the mountain. From here, the panorama stretches across Lake Lucerne, the rolling hills of Central Switzerland, and a backdrop of distant Alpine peaks. On a clear day, the views seem endless and are among the finest in the region.
The beauty of a day on Mt. Rigi is that there is no single way to experience it. Some visitors spend hours walking between stations on well-maintained trails, while others prefer a leisurely journey with stops for coffee, lunch, or simply a quiet moment overlooking the landscape. Small mountain restaurants, scenic terraces, and peaceful paths are scattered throughout the area, making it easy to slow down and enjoy the surroundings.
One of the mountain's most charming spots is Rigi Kaltbad, a peaceful village known for its relaxed atmosphere and beautiful setting. It's the perfect place to pause, take in the scenery, and enjoy a quieter side of the mountain before continuing your journey.
Whether you're looking for spectacular views, gentle walks, or simply a memorable day above Lake Lucerne, the Mt. Rigi Railways Day Pass offers the freedom to discover one of Switzerland's most loved mountains in your own way.
