Description
The journey to Pilatus is already spectacular. Take the boat from Lucerne to Alpnachstad, then the steepest cogwheel railway in the world to Pilatus Kulm. With hiking boots laced up, start the three-day hike first heading towards Mittaggüpfi. A large part of the white-red marked hike consists of ridge walks with views from the Central Plateau over the Jura to the Bernese Alps. The varied hike also passes rugged rocks, marshy high plateaus, and evergreen valleys. Watch ibex colonies between Tomlishorn and Widderfeld as well as at Stäfeliflue and enjoy refreshing moments during the river hike in the Schlierental. Difficult spots are secured with chains.
