Rigi Kaltbad – Rotstock – Rigi Staffel

A steep path leads from Rigi Kaltbad to the Rotstock viewpoint. But you will see, the effort is worth it. Sit down on a rest bench and take in the phenomenal panoramic view.

Attention summit climbers. The Rotstock offers a magnificent 360° panoramic view, which many find even more fascinating than the view from the Rigi Kulm summit. In addition to the Alpine panorama and the view of the Swiss Plateau, a summit section of the Queen of the Mountains can also be seen. The two railway lines of the Rigi railways appear under your feet like a model landscape.

The ascent from Kaltbad passes through pleasant forest areas and is lined with 14 small crucifix stations. At the Rotstock, rest benches amid a beautiful meadow of flowers invite you to rest at the summit. A short descent then continues to Rigi Staffel, where the train lines from Vitznau and Goldau meet.

Notes

The current operating status of the railways and hiking trails can be found here.

So that future generations can also enjoy the Queen of the Mountains, please dispose of your rubbish at the stations of the Rigi railways. Thank you.
