Lovely views from Rogi but the transport too and from Visnau ,/ Weggis is just too busy - We took the boat to Visnau from Lucerne that takes just under an hour. It was packed but we managed to get a seat. We were almost first off the boat to make sure we got a seat on the mountain railway but we needn't have worried as there was plenty of room. The ascent was spectacular - sit on the left for the best views. We had a wander around the summit and a coffee. It was quite a clear day so the views of lake lucerne were great although there was cloud in the distance. We decided to walk down to Rigi Staffel which was very worthwhile for the views and wildflowers but my wife didn't want to walk further as she had a sore foot so we thought we would wait for a train down to Kaltbad. What we didn't realise was that the trains down the mountain are only one an hour so we had to wait 45 minutes although we did have our packed lunch whilst we waited. When the train came it was fairly busy and took just a few minutes to get to Kaltbad. We then moved quickly to get to the cable car for the journey to Weggis. According to the timetable there is only 2 trips an hour and there were a lot of passengers in the queue. Luckily they seemed to have put on another trip as they were very busy. The cable car was uncomfortably full but we did get one of the few seats. We made our boat connection with a few minutes to spare and again the boat was packed but we were lucky to get a seat inside. All in all we had a very enjoyable trip and the views were amazing but you need to plan your day carefully and be aware of how busy the transport is.

Amazing views, easy to use - Very easy to use. Highly recommended especially if the weather is clear and sunny. Perhaps summer would’ve been nicer for us.

Special place - must do! - Amazing!! This is a remarkable place - easily accessible from Lucerne and does not require a tour to do, although many are offered for those who want reassurance.
The views from the top will leave your speechless. This place is essentially a mountain park with many lovely groomed and walkable trails across and down the mountain ( the swiss actually walk up!).
It is a great way to spend a day soaking up swiss culture and atmosphere. Lots of restaurants and a spa for those who want to combine a dip with their view.
Would love to have spent more time. Will come back,

Swiss beauty - Peaceful place, we stayed for 4 hours and really liked. Will definitely come back next year and explore the mountain. Best place for walk, sledge, ski, food and drinks. Time goes so quick so need few days to enjoy it properly

Great views and more - The summit of the Rigi, when the sky is clear, offers some of the most beautiful views in Switzerland, to which are added ample possibilities for walking, both in the warmer seasons and in winter, when there is the opportunity to ski and sledge, thanks to the lifts, between cogwheel trains and ski lifts. Absolutely recommended.

A really nice day - Lovely day. Not clear blue skies but just light clouds. Purchasing ticket day of visit was easy and recommended because of weather fluctuations. Boat trip, walk and picnic lunch on top and rides up and down were great. We chose to take the cog train both ways. Recommended.

Ski Mount Rigi - Check the weather forecast for the mountains Snowing can also mean in NO vision on the slopes.

Plan to read the train schedule you have to wait sometimes an hour to get up the mountain.
Off the train to the right. Very friendly man helped us rent skis. There is no lockers anyway so pack light.
Locals ski Stoos. Mount Rigi is for family skiing.
