描述
The Pilatus ridge hike offers spectacular views and challenging trails. Ideal for experienced hikers looking for an unforgettable adventure in the Swiss Alps.
Your journey begins in Lucerne, where you take the train to Alpnachstad. The route runs alongside Lake Lucerne and offers the first impressive views of the surrounding mountains and crystal-clear water. The train ride takes around 20 minutes and is the perfect start to your day in the Swiss Alps.
Once you arrive in Alpnachstad, you board the world's steepest cogwheel railroad, which takes you up Mount Pilatus. The Pilatus Railway, which opened back in 1889, climbs a gradient of up to 48 percent on its 4.6 km route. During the 30-minute ride, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
Once you reach the top of Mount Pilatus, you will find yourself at an altitude of 2,132 meters above sea level. From here, you have a spectacular panoramic view of the Swiss Alps, Lake Lucerne and, on clear days, even as far as the Black Forest and the Vosges mountains. Take time to enjoy the view and breathe in the fresh mountain air.
For lunch, head to the Tripoli hut, which is about an hour's hike from the Pilatus summit. The hut offers regional specialties and a cosy atmosphere, ideal for a rest before you set off on the ridge hike. Enjoy a hearty meal and take in the impressive mountain scenery.
After lunch, the actual ridge hike begins, taking you all the way to Gfellen. This challenging itinerary requires surefootedness and a good level of fitness, but is one of the most beautiful hikes in Central Switzerland. The path leads over narrow ridges and steep slopes and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. Along the way, you will pass idyllic alpine pastures and dense forests, while the mountain world unfolds its full splendor.
The hike to Gfellen takes around four to five hours, depending on your pace and breaks. Once you arrive in Gfellen, you have the opportunity to rest and enjoy the impressive natural scenery once again before making your way back to Lucerne. There are regular bus connections from Gfellen to Lucerne, which will take you back to the city in comfort.
This tour combines the beauty of the Swiss Alps with an exciting ridge walk and culinary delights. It is ideal for experienced hikers looking for an unforgettable adventure in one of Switzerland's most beautiful regions. Pack your hiking boots and get ready for a unique experience in the mountains.
