THE ROMANCE OF STEAM AT WHITSUN | FROM VITZNAU
Description
Europe's first mountain railroad has been running from Vitznau to Mount Rigi since 1871. Locomotives and trains from the early years have been lovingly and expertly restored. Shining metal, the smell of coal fire, the hiss of steam, spraying sparks and the smooth play of the massive mechanics completely captivate steam train passengers.
As part of the 150th anniversary of the Arth-Rigi Railway, the vehicle parade will take place on Sunday, 8 June 2025, where you can experience our unique collection of historic vehicles up close.
