The cable car from Weggis reaches Rigi Kaltbad in just 10 minutes. When you reach the top station, it is easy to get to the Mineral Baths & Spa Rigi Kaltbad or the village square in Rigi Kaltbad. These are highlights for anyone with an interest in architecture: both the Mineral Baths and the village square were designed by the famous Swiss architect, Mario Botta.
Rigi Kaltbad is a starting point for excursions, a stopping point en route, a destination and a place to stay, all at the same time. The aerial cable car connects directly with the cogwheel railway to Rigi Kulm. Rigi Kaltbad is the starting point and the destination for a huge number of hikes. The easy walk to the Känzeli viewpoint and the 7 km-long walk along the panoramic footpath to Rigi Scheidegg are popular at any time of year. There are several hotels offering accommodation and food, while the Mineral Baths & Spa Rigi Kaltbad also offer wellness treatments.
On this cable car the Rigi-voucher can be redeemed.
