Stanserhorn on Lake Lucerne

Stans

The 1,898 meter high Stanserhorn offers a view of ten lakes, 100 kilometers of the Alpine mountain range and three countries. Even the arrival by nostalgic cable car has its charms. The most convenient spots to enjoy the panorama are in the revolving restaurant or on the viewing platform.

Since 1893 people visiting the Stanserhorn have been taking the wooden carriages of the oldtimer funicular to the intermediate station of Kälti, where today's visitors continue the journey to the Stanserhorn in a gondola lift. On the summit, the revolving restaurant offers an unrestricted view of Lake Zug, Lake Wichel, Lake Lucerne, Lake Sempach, Lake Sarn, Lake Hallwiler, Lake Gerzen, Lake Bannalp, Lake Baldegger, Lake Alpnach and further on to Alsace and to the Black Forest.

Visitors who prefer more intense physical activities, hike the Flower Reserve or the Marmot Park. By the way, the Stanserhorn, an ideal summer mountain, is the local mountain of Delta Club Stans, the largest and oldest kite flying club of Switzerland - a fact that can hardly be overlooked on sunny weekends. By the way, rangers help out in naming mountain peaks.
