Cog Railway, Alpnaschtad-Mt.Pilatus
Pilatus, Luzern's “Dragon Mountain,” offers spectacular views of the Alps and central plains. This Alpine panorama apparently has 73 peaks and 6 lakes. To reach the summit, take the train from Alpnachstad (a short train-ride or a 90-minute boat ride from Luzern), the bottom station of the Pilatus Railway, the world’s steepest cogwheel railway. You can also take a bus from Luzern to Kreins, then ascent from Kriens to Fräkmüntegg by aerial gondola and then up to the Pilatus summit by aerial cableway. The “Golden Round Trip”would be taking the boat from Luzern to Alpnachstad, cog railway to Mt. Pilatus, and cable car and aerial gondola to Kreins and bus back to Luzern.(see www.pictures-switzerland.com/pilatus/)
