Thanks to the good accessibility with mountain railways, Rigi offers a variety of attractive trails. The most scenic one leads from the mountain station Rigi Scheidegg over Rigi Dosse and Rotstock up to Rigi Kulm. The consistently easy trails allow for a brisk pace. The route mostly follows ridgelines and crests, so you can enjoy views down on both sides. From the Kulm, you can descend gently and conservingly by train to Kräbel, the valley station of the Rigi Scheidegg cable car. It doesn't get more comfortable than this.
