From the departure at the train station in Lucerne, everything was very simple and well marked. The ascent to the mountain on the cogwheel train is truly impressive, and the views you appreciate from the top are breathtaking. We descended via the cable car, which is equally impressive, especially the first part, with stunning 360-degree views. It is a unique engineering marvel. Highly recommended for all types of audiences.
