MANU Tip

With a view of Rigi and Pilatus
A second legend revolves around the figure of the national hero William Tell, whose traces can be found around Lake Lucerne and who achieved world fame primarily through Friedrich Schiller's drama. The construction of Europe's first mountain railway up the Rigi, also known as the "Queen of the Mountains", marked the beginning of the Swiss mountain railway success story. Enjoy the other record-breaking mountain railways in Central Switzerland. We would also particularly like to recommend a cruise or two on the lovingly restored fleet of steamships on Lake Lucerne.
