Thanks to its central location in the heart of Switzerland, the holiday destination is quick and easy to get to, making it an ideal springboard for excursions into the mountains around Lake Lucerne, as well as to Lucerne, Zurich and the Bernese Oberland – whether by car, boat or bus.
The holiday resorts at the foot of the Rigi are quick and easy to reach by car. Küssnacht am Rigi is on the A4 motorway (Zurich, Lucerne, Basel and Gotthard). From there it's some 10 kilometres to Weggis/Vitznau along the lake.
The Rigi is accessible from Weggis (aerial cableway), Vitznau (cogwheel railway) – or Goldau (cogwheel railway), which also has a mainline railway station.
