Description

Surrounded by the fantastic lakes of Central Switzerland, Mount Rigi must be one of the most impressive peaks in the Alpine foothills. In winter, however, the lakes are rarely visible, as they are more often than not buried beneath a thick blanket of fog. This also means that the views are changing all the time, depending on which peaks happen to be pointing out of the clouds.
