• Thursday, Mt Pilatus.

    18 september 2025, Schweiz ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C

    Today we went on an amazing boat trip along Lake Lucerne to Mt Pilatus, the mountain that overlooks Lucerne. It was the most spectacular day, temps in the mid 20's. I took 250 photos, 😂 so culling them had been really hard. When we got to the end of the lake, we got on a red cogwheel railway that took us right up to the summit, very slow at times because of the steepness! The views were incredible, 360 degrees, from flat lands to lakes, to towns and the Swiss Alps. Went for a walk around the cliffs, but wasn't game to go up to the summit. Went halfway down the other side of the mountain on a gondular to a Rope Park/Flying Fox/Luge, then the rest of the way down on a tiny 4 seater gondular. Got a local bus back to Lucerne. Both shattered, so dinner in tonight, thanks to the local Co-Op! Lucerne is the most beautiful place, would love to come back again - off to Wengen tomorrow, where another mountain awaits us.Läs mer
