    Can someone tell me where to access the boats on Lake Lucerne that will allow you to go to Mt. Rigi?

    The boats depart from the docks directly in front of the Luzern railway station.

    Hi Hedvig –

    Here is the schedule.

    Make sure you pick the correct season.

    Also, somewhwere in there is a map, in case you want to get on or off at another ship landing.

    Thank you. I know everyone says it is simple to get to Mt. Rigi but with so many different modes of transport involved and different entry and exit points I am finding it hard to plan.

    Perhaps this will help:

    The timetable will give you timing for any and all routes:

    Please note that the cableway ( Luftseilbahn, LSB) between Weggis, LSB and Rigi Kaltbad has its valley station ( Talstation) about a 15 minute walk uphill from the ship station and also the stops of the bus route along the shore between Brunnen and Küssnacht am Rigi. I like to use that route going down. 😉

    I have turned on the layer with transport stop icons in this map, using the menu under Points of Interest, Traffic.. At zoom level 32, the train lines r clearly visible.
