🇨🇭 Cogwheel Train Ride to Mt Rigi
We visited Mount Rigi, which is often referred to as the "Queen of the Mountains", while we were in Lucerne since the journey was included in Swiss Rail Travel Pass.
We first took a train from Lucerne's main train station (Luzern Bahnhof) to Arth-Goldau. The train ride took approximately 30 minutes. From Arth-Goldau, we took a cogwheel train which offered a scenic ascent to the top of Mount Rigi.
The cogwheel train is unique because it uses a toothed rack rail in the center of the track, allowing it to climb steep gradients that conventional trains cannot manage.

Oldest Cogwheel Railway experience
#winhkflight #cogwheel #lakebrienz #switzerland
The Brienz Rothorn Bahn is an oldest cogwheel railway in Switzerland, starts from town of Brienz and ascends to the summit of the Rothorn Kulm. The journey takes one hour. Along the journey to the summit of the Rothorn Kulm, it offers panoramic views of the surrounding Alps, such as Tiger, Mönch and Jungfrau peaks, valleys, forests and lakes.
For season 2024, it opens from 8 June to 20 October 2024. The return journey for adult without discount costs is CHF 96 per person. You can either purchase the ticket online or at the station in Brienz. To make sure you able to get a seat, it would be better to purchase the ticket including seat guarantee in advance or be there early to buy it at the station.
I want to travel to Hong Kong to explore the panoramic views of city.

The summit of Mount Rigi offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Swiss Alps on a clear day. However, it was snowing on the day of our visit. Nonetheless, we had fun playing with snow too!
My dream destination for a family trip is anywhere in the world where the family can have fun together!
