The valley station in Weggis is not barrier-free – we recommend traveling via Vitznau when using a wheelchair.

THE ROMANCE OF STEAM IN WINTER | FROM GOLDAU

Description

As part of the 150th anniversary of the Arth-Rigi Railway, winter steam journeys from Goldau to Rigi Kulm take place in December. Some of the engines and carriages from those early years have been lovingly and expertly restored. Mt. Rigi Railways is now in possession of one of the world's largest fleets of vintage rolling stock. A steam engine, combined with vintage carriages, make the trip up to the "Queen of the Mountains" an exclusive, nostalgic adventure.
