Rigi

Since establishing Europe’s first mountain railway in 1871, Rigi Bahnen AG has operated the comprehensive transport and tourism infrastructure on Mount Rigi in Central Switzerland. The company provides year-round access to the mountain – often called the "Queen of the Mountains" – via two cogwheel railways from Vitznau and Arth-Goldau and an aerial cableway from Weggis. These routes ascend to key points like Rigi Kulm, known for its 360-degree panoramic views across 13 lakes and the Swiss Alps. Beyond scenic transport, the operator maintains an extensive network of hiking trails and provides access to mountain restaurants and the Mineral Baths & Spa in Rigi Kaltbad. This integrated system of railways, trails, and amenities creates a complete recreational destination. Located between Lake Lucerne, Lake Zug, and Lake Lauerz, the mountain is easily reachable from major Swiss cities.
