The Golden Tour of Mount Pilatus Switzerland is surrounded by mountains, living in Zurich or Lucerne, and closer to Mt.Pilatus or Mt.Titlis. Pilatus is one of Lucerne's patron saints. There are many legends about dragons, so it is called Dragon Mountain, a flying dragon becomes its propaganda sign, and there is a comic version. It is rare to see good dragons in Western culture, and this is one of them. This mountain is located 15 kilometers southwest of Lucerne at an altitude of 2,132 meters. The most famous is the "Golden Tour" route, which is open from May to October every year. Mountaineering, downhill, of course, there are many people who use haha ~ starting from Lucerne, take the bus to Kriens, about 15 minutes by car. Buy tickets from Kriens first. This ticket can take the small cable car, the big cable car and the gear train. The first section of the small cable car arrives in Krienseregg in ten minutes. There is a children's playground. If you don't get off, you will arrive at Frakmuntegg at an altitude of 1415 meters in the second 15 minutes. There are restaurants and rides such as the rope park. Then take the big cable car and take a few minutes to reach the summit of Pilatus Kulm. There are dragon paths, restaurants, two hotels, souvenir shops, observation decks, etc. I thought it would be very cold on the top of the mountain, but there was not much snow in the summer. It was a bit hot when I walked a little. There are some clouds on the top of the mountain and you can take a bird's eye view of Lake Lucerne The dragon trail is not difficult to walk, and the longest route takes only half an hour. Built in 1889, the gear train with a slope of 48 degrees, the red carriage is very beautiful. Because of the snow on the mountain top in winter, it stopped from mid-December to mid-May. The distance is the snowy Alps. To the north is the German Black Forest, but nothing can be seen in the fog. Down the mountain to choose the world's steepest gear train, which lasted forty minutes, the end is Alpnachstad on the shores of Lake Lucerne. From here, take a cruise back to Lucerne. Of course, from here, take the train up the mountain, and then the cable car down the mountain is also possible.
