★ 4K 🇨🇭 Vitznau - Rigi Kulm rack railway cab ride [05.2023] Zahnradbahn Führerstandsmitfahrt

- Today we’re going to have a look at the first* steep grade railway in Europe, the original Rigibahn for a second time (this time with sunny weather). The Rigi is a mountain located in central Switzerland within the cantons of Schwyz and Luzern. It’s a popular tourist destination. Almost completely surrounded by lakes, the journey to the top offers spectacular views.
Two of Switzerland’s three standard gauge rack railways serve the Rigi mountain. The one we’re looking at today starts in Vitznau, a scenic boat ride away from the city of Luzern (Lucerne).
If anybody would like to see the third standard gauge rack railway in Switzerland (Rorschach - Heiden Bahn), click this link:

* Another rack railway was completed the year before in Ostermundigen for a quarry, but they delayed their official opening to make the Rigibahn the first rack railway.

BEAUTIFUL SWITZERLAND.🚞🚞🍾🍷🍹🍺🥳🤠
Made this same trip in the summer (Sunday 10th July) of 2022 - the weather was almost identical to that featured here - the new trains had been introduced only a couple of months before our visit - stunning views from the very summit of Rigi Kulm - it's not cheap though but fortunately the Hotel we were staying at had a discount scheme in operation so a not quite so obscene amount of money changed hands!
Rigi was the first mountain-top experience my wife and I had when we visited Switzerland (our trip started in Luzern). The view up there was incredible, as was the train ride up. Thanks for sharing this video and for bringing back good memories!
مناظر خلابة وطبيعة جميلة جدآ 👬🌻💯
СУПЕР ВІДЕО! ДЯКУЮ ТОБІ! 🌲🌲🌲SUPER VIDEO! THANK YOU! 👍
LOVE From Bangladesh ❤❤
Einfach wunderschön. Danke für's Mitnehmen. Die Strecke von Arth Goldau zur Rigi Kulm bin ich ebenfalls mitgefahren, auch sie ist herrlich.
I can only imagine the incredible views on the way down, please make a video of that too!
Great

What a beautiful day to make this vid, the scenery is outstanding! I think I saw the winter version, not this completed, but the spring one is a whole new world! Thank you for this and all your vids. Greetings from Colombia
Ein Geisterzug, der sich auf einmal sichtbar macht😱 11:35
Good,thanks
Hi from (sunny for a change) England! Another top notch video. You should get tourist board sponsorship because they definitely make me want to come to Switzerland one day. keep up the great work 👍
Marvellous Lovely Danke Team😀
My family camped in Vitznau every summer when I was a teenager in the 1980s. I am taking my husband there for the first time next year!!
Nice! =)
Yeah. a few days ago, I was in there
I'm feeling longing
Lovely in every way!
great video, thank you!
красота ))😊
Beautiful!!
Дуже гарне відео!
Wow ale tam pięknie ,ładne widoki, cudowne miejsce na wypoczynek i zwiedzanie😃😀
magnifique !!! impressionnant ces rampes, le son de la crémaillère, le paysage ...
dépaysant pour un Français de Bretagne !!! félicitations
This is the ride I missed last year in Luzern, as I had to pick between Rigi and Pilatus (went to the Swiss Transport Museum on the rainy day instead), so thank you for this and I hope we will also have the Pilatusbahn here someday soon!
Hey, hey ... Nice ride on the Rigi! Brought back nice memories of a visit to CH a long while back. It was overcast when I took that ride so very nice to see the real scenery. Thanks for sharing! (Greetings from Tucson)
this funicular ride was very special , thank you we enjoyed it.
A funicular is not self-powered and instead hauled by steel cables (and they are usually not very long). This is a rack railway.
This ride blew me away, absolutely stunning, thankyou so much ❤️
Amazing scenery and views.
Thanks you for the fantastic climb 😊
Nice view. 👍🙏
Great video, loved it!
Sehr gut
Интересно,познавательно,увлекательно!Просто СУПЕР!Спасибо!
Thank you for this. Years ago, I came up from Arth-Goldau. So now I've seen both routes.
LOVED that ride.
Dankeschön fürs Mitnehmen. Tolle Bahn, toller Ausblick. 👍🏻 Ich denke, ein Muss bei einem Schweizbesuch. Viele Grüße und bis zum nächsten Video. 🙋🏼♂️
Класс!Очень красиво!просто фантастика!
What an awesome rid and with such a view at the top..thanks for sharing 👍😊
Goooood from iraq
Gorgeous video. Thanks. BUT...one thing I would LOVE to see is the use of a WIDE ANGLE camera. There is so much beautiful scenery on the sides that we never get to see. Such a shame.
What a fun ride. Thanks
amazing route and amazing nature⛰🚞
Beautiful 🎉
.😅
Awesome!
You can easily tell the steep gradient of this line when you see the buildings next to the line.
Geiles Video... Etwa 7km und von 435 bis 1752 Meter über Meer... Was mir noch sehr gefällt sind die Weichen... Und an der Endstation steht ein Fernseh- und Rundfunk-Sender... ❤😊
Great video. Approximately 7km and from 435 to 1752 above the sea... What I like to much too are switches... And at the final station stands a TV and radio transmitter... ❤😊
Vielen Dank
Ein gutes video danke
Fantastic video
Очень интересно! И красиво!
MEEEEGA🤷♀️🙏Dankeschön 🤝 💗🌺💐💐💐💐💗🌺
20:34 Needs more cowbell! ❤
look forward to more
Ce n'est pas un train mais un funiculaire ! BRAVO
sehr schöne Zahnradbahn
❤❤❤❤🇧🇷🙏🙏👋👋
Amazing geology of this mountain! It is uplifted and tilted, with very dramatic fault escarpments. Apparently conglomerate, especially visible at the opening to the tunnel.
The Rigi is actually sediment left by the massive glaciers that once covered the regions, which makes it quite different to the other mountains around
👍👍👍
Apreciando mais um ótimo vídeo, belas imagens como sempre! É like👍
This line is weird. A tourist rack railway that's double tracked and electrified, has simple scaffolding for halts and hypermodern stationbuildings and to top it all: cows with cowbells and Buddhists monks... 👍( O, and since I mentioned cowbells it's now mandatory for me to say that "I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!"😂)
Muito bom
🏆💪🔝
Hallo, wunderschön diese Fahrt mit der Zahnradbahn. Vielen Dank fürs mitnehmen war sehr schön. Gerne ein Abo und ein Like von uns. Liebe Grüße Maria und Robert 😊👍
Besten Dank!
Beutiful country ❤❤but no money to visit 😢😢😢😢
Same here, we need a lottery win 🏆 😂
Video quality is exceptional! What did you shoot with?
Whenever I open U tube, frequency of Switzerland rail videos is often, next is Western movies. In this video I am seeing for the first time track is going through deep forest wooded areas. It is beautiful.
Quelle est sa vitesse d'ascension ? Elle me paraît rapide ! Fabuleux trajet !!!
I didn't think it was possible: the gradient is 250 thousandths
One question. Do the ticket checkers come to see the tickets onboard? Or do the passengers need to first show the ticket before boarding the train?
Option 1
25:19 Beam me up Scotty
Are you the driver?
These people don’t go out for lunch.
Isn't that a mistake? Length 6700 km
Where did you see that?
Vous avez de la chance nous avons rien dans les Vosges France Lorraine
You didn’t show any views from the top!
11,752m??? Why is everyone alive?? Oxygen is required above 3,00m!
Remove the first 1, I'm not sure where you're getting that number. Using common sense, I take it you meant 3'000 m. You don't "need" supplemental oxygen yet at that elevation, unless you're elderly or have reduced longue capacity. I've been higher than that without it and felt fine.
To be honest I don't like it so much. A lot of the video is staring at the mountain. For a rack railway the downhill trip is probably a better idea because of the views.
How can this have a 250% grade??
Not %
@@lorirocks777 umm what is the grade then ?
250 ‰ = 25 %
@@swisspeach67 oh its 10% of the grade.. but still 25% is crazy
Fabuleux ❤
Very interesting , only on summer time ? 🥸
Thanks, I also filmed with some snow about a year ago.
