After enjoying a close up view of the Mythen we are heading towards the deep blue Lake Lucerne. On its western bank lies the Rütli, where on August 1st 1291 by representatives of the Schwyzer, Uri and Unterwalden municipalities the foundation of the Swiss Federation was sealed by the Rütli Oath. Ahead of us rises now the Rigi, fondly known as ‘Queen of the Mountains’ by the Swiss. Our next destination is Mount Pilatus and the beautiful city of Lucerne with its well-known Chapel Bridge.
