A hiking adventure in the heart of Switzerland! The high-altitude hikes around Lake Lucerne are real pearls that are worth discovering. First there are panoramic views over the Renggpass, then on to Nidwalden with wonderful views of Lake Uri and the Rigi. After crossing the lake basin, you climb the “Queen of the Mountains” and dream of the mountain panoramas of the past few days in Rigi Kaltbad.

Travel individually to Lucerne, a city that enchants with its picturesque location on Lake Lucerne and the impressive mountain backdrop of Pilatus and Rigi. Your journey takes you to the heart of Switzerland, where historical sights, charming old town streets and a lively cultural scene await you.
