Three small and familiar ski resorts exude a special charm far away from the hustle and bustle of large winter sports resorts.

In the three ski areas - namely Seebodenalp, Rigi Staffel/Kaltbad and Rigi Scheidegg/Burggeist - you can enjoy a total of 20 kilometers of prepared slopes with almost no queues at the ski lifts.

Price:

Anyone with a valid ticket for the cogwheel and aerial cableways (GA, 365-day season ticket, route ticket, SBB or mountain railroad day pass, etc), skis free of charge on the Rigi.

Public transport

Here you can find the timetables of all nine Mountain Railways on the Rigi. 

Getting there

More info about arrival and parking.

Parking

At the stations of the Mount Rigi Railways in Weggis, Vitznau, Goldau A4 & Kräbel there are parking spaces available for a fee. However, we recommend public transport instead of a car: sit back, enjoy and do something good for the environment.
