      Lusern and Mount Rigi

      May 16, 2019 in Switzerland ⋅ ⛅ 4 °C

      Had a great day. I left the bike at Google and went on a train to Lusern then a ferry boat for an hour to the foot of Mount Rigi, then a cog railway which climbed very steeply up the mountain for around 40 minutes. We were above the clouds at the top. Beautiful. The we walked down for 40 minutes and caught a different train and had a walk around Lusern.
      More walking after another train to Zurich as we went to Google to dry my washing as they have facilities for the staff. At the end of a tiring day we had walked over 23000 steps. Over 11 miles. The day finished with a lovely self service Italian meal. Followed by renting a couple of electric assisted bicycles to ride back to Google and pick up my washing.

      Train to Mount Rigi

      June 21, 2016 in Switzerland ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C

      Sunny day perfect for a trip up Mount Rigi, via the ferry from Lucerne to Vitznau. The Rigi cog railway takes 40 minutes giving beautiful views over the lake and white capped mountains, dense forested slopes, past a field of pretty cows with their neck bells clanging, past a swiss chalet, the aroma of freshly mown grass. View from the summit are once again spectacular, with the Alps in the distance. Lots of red benches to sit and bask in the hot sun, even at 6000ft altitude. . Such a wonderful and easy trip to take from Lucerne, and get the full on Swiss experience.Read more
