Lucerne is more than just a scenic detour — it’s a perfect one-day stop between major rail hubs.
Start with a walk along the lake promenade. Rent a paddleboat, hop on a ferry, or simply enjoy the alpine backdrop. Everything begins just steps from the station.
Take the world’s steepest cogwheel railway to Mount Pilatus, or hop on a bus to the Museum of Transport — a must for train lovers.
Cross the Chapel Bridge, admire the medieval architecture, and find a cosy spot for fondue or rösti. Lucerne is safe, calm, and ideal for unwinding before your next leg.
