Mount Titlis tour from Lucerne

Our day starts with a ride on the Lucerne-Engelberg Express train. Enjoy a 50-minutes scenic ride, which will take us from the city along the shore of Lake Lucerne to the mountains.

From Engelberg, we start the ascent to Mount Titlis with two different gondolas, the Titlis Xpress and the famous Titlis Rotair, the first revolving gondola. They will bring us to the summit at 3020 meters above sea level.

- Trübsee adventure (for children, seasonal from June to mid-October and weather permitting)

All the mentioned activities are optional; it's your choice if you want to participate.

An outside platform with snow all year round invites you to play in the snow, build a snowman, or to start a snowball fight.

For your lunch (not included), there is an à la carte restaurant serving delicious regional and international specialties and a self-service restaurant for a quick meal.

In the afternoon, we return to Lucerne on the same route.

Weather forecast

I use the weather forecasts provided by the Federal Office of Meteorology and SRF (Swiss Radio and Television).

With the link below, you can check the weather forecast at any time by yourself. The forecast is available for the next five days.

Backup schedule: reserve an extra day free of charge

Mt. Titlis tour from Lucerne: Depending on availability, I can add an extra day to your booking so we can switch the tour date if bad weather occurs. A few days before departure, we'll decide on which of the two days to run the tour based on the weather forecast.

Operability

This tour can run in any weather condition except during a storm. During a storm, aerial cableways have to halt operations for safety reasons. If there is a storm with gale-force winds in the forecast, I need to cancel the tour. On rare occasions, there may be a cancellation due to landslides, avalanches, and other natural forces or the risk thereof. I will fully refund the deposit in this case.

Your options in case of bad weather (tour specific)

- If not having perfect weather is a dealbreaker, you can cancel the booking up to 12 hours before departure for a full refund of the deposit.
