After arriving at the top of the mountain, you'll be rewarded with a breathtaking 360° panoramic view. It's a truly majestic place! Of course Mt. Rigi is not the only mountain with a 360° view. However, the panoramic lookout at Mt. Rigi's summit is unlike any other. The combination of the snow-capped Alps, the lowlands with 13 lakes, views of Germany and France and a bird's-eye view of the cities of Lucerne and Zug makes it truly unique.
To the north towards Zurich, the view takes in Lake Aegeri, Lake Lauerz and Lake Zug. To the north-east, you can see the Swiss plateau dotted with lakes through to the Black Forest and the Vosges mountains. The southern vista is completely different – it encompasses the soaring, snow-capped Alpine ranges and is breathtakingly spectacular in its own right.
