Deepak is planning to use the Swiss Saver Day Pass for the 'MT Rigi Majestic Round Trip' and wants to know if it covers the route completely and if the 'Weggis-Rigi Kaltbad' cablecar is included. He seeks confirmation on these points to finalize his travel plans.
Key takeaways:
The Swiss Saver Day Pass fully covers the Rigi mountain trip but discounts routes from Vitznau to Rigi and the Weggis-Rigi Kaltbad cablecar by 50%.
Make sure to check the Synoptic Map for updated coverage details, as it clarifies which routes are fully included or discounted.
Using the Swiss Travel Pass offers a better discount on certain routes like Jungfraujoch, so consider this option if traveling extensively.

Can anyone please advise if the “MT RIGI MAJESTIC ROUND TRIP” fully covered via the Swiss Saver Day Pass? Also, can you please confirm if the “WEGGIS–RIGI KALTBAD” Cablecar is covered by the Swiss Saver Day Pass?
I’m also going to buy the Saver Day Pass. However, it appears to me that it only covers half price (50% discount) of the routes from Vitznau to Rigi and the “WEGGIS–RIGI KALTBAD” Cablecar.
Can anyone please confirm the above? If they are correct, how much should I pay in extra if I have the Saver Day Pass?
Lucas gave the answer in his response to Deepak. If you look at the map you will see a solid black line WEGGIS–RIGI KALTBAD. Solid line equals covered by SDP.
I did download the “Synoptic Map” pdf a couple of weeks ago. In the pdf, it’s dotted lines for routes from Vitznau to Rigi and the “WEGGIS–RIGI KALTBAD” Cablecar, which confused me. I’ve attached this pdf here. I think they may have updated the link.
Another question. In the map, it shows dotted lines from Grindelwald to Jungfraujoch, which I assume it’s 50% discount if I have the Saver Day Pass. Does that mean it is cheaper than the Swiss Pass holders who only get 20% discount for this route?
I’m not sure what that map is you are referring to or where you get the idea of 20% discount on any route.
The official map for the Area of validity GA travelcard and Half-Fare Card is here. That’s the only one you need to worry about. It’s the same as the map in the link I provided above.
The Saver Day Pass offers no discount beyond Grindelwald and Wengen towards Jungfraujoch (which is 25% discount with Swiss Travel Pass) UNLESS you also have a Swiss Half Fare Card. The Saver Day Pass without Swiss Half Fare Card does not provide discounts on ANY dotted lines.
