Rigi Kulm - Rigi Staffel - Rigi Staffelhöhe

This panoramic hike leads steadily downhill and offers views of several lakes, mountains and the midlands.

This high-altitude hike starts at just under 1,800 metres above sea level. The hiking trail is very wide and can also be walked effortlessly with a pram.

The hike can also be done in the opposite direction.

 

Notes

The current operating status of the railways and hiking trails can be found here. So that future generations can also enjoy the Queen of the Mountains, we ask you to dispose of your waste at the stations or take it home with you. Thank you.
