With the help of the JST Multidrive donated by the Cerebral Foundation, this has been possible on the Rigi since spring 2021 for wheelchair users as well. Thanks to a highly powerful electric motor, not only bumpy hiking trails but also steep inclines can be mastered easily.
After arriving at Rigi Kaltbad (it is recommended to arrive via the cable car from Weggis), the JST Mountaindrive can be collected at the DLZ Kaltbad after prior reservation and a short instruction by the staff of the Tourist Info.
The wheelchair may only be used on predefined routes. Map material with route information is provided on site or can already be downloaded here in advance.
Notes
You can find the current operating status of the railways and hiking trails here.
So that future generations can enjoy the Queen of the Mountains, we ask you to dispose of your waste at the stations of the Rigi railways. Thank you.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author
At the Känzeli viewpoint, it is worth staying a little longer and letting your gaze wander over Lake Lucerne.
Safety guidelines
The range of the wheelchair depends greatly on various factors. These include, among others, the daily temperature, altitude meters, but also the driving style and the weight of the user. We have designed the routes so that the battery life will safely bring you back to the starting point.
