Gotthard Panorama Express

The Gotthard Panorama Express is a unique combination of train and boat ride, connecting central Switzerland with sunny Ticino. By boat, you glide gently across Lake Lucerne from Lucerne to Flüelen, where our panorama train awaits you. It takes you on an impressive journey over the historic Gotthard mountain route. In numerous hairpin bends and loops, it overcomes the ascent up to the Scheitel Tunnel and spirals down again on the south side towards Lugano. Let yourself be enchanted on the journey by the changing views of mountains and lake and immerse yourself in the history of Switzerland, which is told to us so heroically in Schiller's William Tell.

Highlights

• Double loop at the church of Wassen
• History, Myths and Legends around the Gotthard
• Boat trip on Lake Lucerne
• Rütliwiese, which saw the founding of Switzerland in 1291
