Top Lucerne Dining Experiences

The highest hanggliding tandemflight in Switzerland. From up to 2000m you fly for 20-60 minutes like an eagle. Hang gliding is the best way to fly free like a bird. It is faster and more intense than paragliding. Whether fast and wild or just in peace, your pilot adapts to your wishes. The ride on the nostalgic funicular and the world first CabriO to Mt Stanserhorn is unique. The wonderful view from the summit over whole central Switzerland will inspire you. We gently take off into the third dimension. The silent flight over mountains and lakes will be an unforgettable experience.

Join our experienced guide for an unforgettable day hike on Mount Pilatus, one of Switzerland's most famous mountains. From Lucerne, we take the bus to the Pilatus valley station. The cable car takes us up to the summit and we enjoy the spectacular views of the mountains and Lake Lucerne.

At 2'132 meters above sea level, the views are spectacular and with a bit of luck you might even spot an ibex. During the hike our guide will tell you interesting facts about the mountain, its flora and fauna and its legends, such as the Pilatus dragons.
