Legends are stories that keep being retold. It is hard to say what is really true and what is just a legend. Be that as it may, the Legendary Benches Trail is interesting because the benches are located at beautiful viewpoints, overlooking the valley.
In the Scheidegg-Burggeist area, there are over 20 benches where you can have a sit down and read a legend of Mt. Rigi, before strolling on to the next bench to read another one. The Legendary Benches Trail tells the stories of Mt. Rigi and gives an insight into days long gone.
In order to let our next generation also could enjoy the beauty of the Rigi, we would like to ask you to dispose of your own waste in the waste bins which are located at all of the stations of RIGI BAHNEN AG. Thank you.
