Description
Combine Lucerne’s landmark mountain with a cruise on Lake Lucerne. Both of these experiences are an absolute must during your visit to the Lake Lucerne Region.
The Golden Round starts in Lucerne. Take bus number 1 (direction Kriens/Obernau) right in front of the train station in Lucerne. After an eleven-minute bus ride to the station "Kriens, Zentrum Pilatus" and a short walk, you will reach the valley station of the panorama gondola in Kriens. Enjoy 15 minutes of travel to the middle station, Krienseregg. There, you can sit and relax on the terrace of Restaurant Krienseregg (at your own expense) and enjoy your time while children are playing on the Pilu Land playground.
After another 15 minutes of travel by panorama gondola, you will reach the middle station, Fräkmüntegg. At Fräkmüntegg, you can test your agility by climbing in the rope park (own expenses) or trying one of the local specialties in the self-service restaurant (own expenses). At Fräkmüntegg, you will also change into the aerial cableway "Dragon Ride," and after an exhilarating 5-minute ride, you will reach the top of Pilatus Kulm. Thanks to its spacious interior, cockpit-like design and large windows, the Dragon Ride gives you the impression of being in a helicopter.
From the top, you can enjoy the panoramic views over the Lake of Lucerne and the Swiss Alps on the summit and decide if you want to stay inside the panoramic gallery, relax on the terrace, climb one of the peaks (5–10 minutes) or enjoy a local specialty in the restaurant of Hotel Bellevue or Hotel Pilatus Kulm (at your own expense). Many hiking possibilities invite you to discover the Dragon Mountain above Lucerne.
The world's steepest cogwheel railway (built in 1889) will bring you from Pilatus Kulm through fascinating rock faces, sparkling mountain streams and lush meadows carpeted with Alpine flowers down to Alpnachstad. In Alpnachstad, you just pass under the street, and you will be at the cruise landing stage in Alpnachstad. After a breathtaking one-hour boat trip on Lake Lucerne, you will arrive in Lucerne, near the station and your unforgettable half-day trip will finish.
The Golden Round Trip can also be done in the opposite direction, starting by boat from Lucerne. In any case, please check the timetable before your visit, especially for the boat ride.
