Review & FAQ:

Weggis is a popular holiday resort located on the shores of Lake Lucerne, close to the foot of the impressive Mt. Rigi. A panoramic cableway can whisk you up the mountain to Rigi Kaltbad, a pedestrian-only spa village, in just ten minutes. From here you can access a network of very scenic walking/hiking trails, surrender to the bliss of a mineral spa bath or take a horse-drawn carriage ride. Other activities in Weggis include taking a scenic lake cruise on a historic paddlewheel steamer or enjoying a ride in the tallest outdoor elevator in Europe, which will take you to the spectacular Hammetschwand Lookout Point. In winter Weggis offers excellent skiing and winter sport infrastructure.
