Known as "the queen of the mountains", the Rigi is only 1,800 metres high. But it has a magnificent panorama of the Alps and the lakes of the Four Cantons or Zug. To get there (no cars allowed), you can choose between a cable car and two mountain trains, including Europe's oldest cog railway. At the top, you can choose from a wide range of activities, with walking obviously at the top of the list. For the more patient, or the more romantic, the key moment of a stay in Switzerland is the sunrise over the Alps from the Rigi. At the foot of the Rigi, on the south side, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, the climate is exceptionally mild, to the point of nicknaming the region "the Swiss Riviera".
