Hello. I want to describe one more attraction near Lucerne, the mountain Pilatus. The easiest way to get to the top is by the mountain train that leaves from Alpnachstad station. You can read how to build routes in my articles 1 and 2.

Map of the lifts on Pilatus. Alpnachstad is on the left:

The whole ascent takes about half an hour in a car like this:

View toward Lucerne. You can also see another lift there, but it starts from a place with no railway station nearby:
