This mountain located just on the outskirts of Lake Lucerne, although 3,000 feet elevation lower than Mount Titlus (the galcier), has the most beautiful scenery we seen.  The Gondolas go in 3 stages from town to the top, as the distance is quite long for gondolas.  Each stage you can get off and see and do things.  At the first stop on the way up, you can get off and rent bicycle sized scooters to push ride yourself along the trails on the mountain.  At the second stop there is a bob sled run you can take and an obstacle course that is un believable.  When we reached the top stage, we were greeted to a sight of two men in their para sails at 7,000 ft altitude preparing to fly off and down to the surface level 7,000 feet below.  Here are the pictures of what we seen.  It is the most spectacular of all our visits over there.
