The view from Rigi is different from that atop Mount Pilatus, so if you see both you won't be replicating your experience.
By most accounts, Rigi (1,680m/5,900 ft.) is the most famous mountain view in the country.
Rigi is called the "island mountain" because it appears to be surrounded by the waters of lakes Lucerne, Zug, and Lauerz.

 Hiking in Switzerland - Rigi
The path is well-marked, well-maintained (even in Winter), and as far as Rigi Kaltbad it's surprisingly level, because this stretch was originally built as a railway line.
The end of the walk is at Rigi Kulm, from which the cogwheel trains descend either to Arth-Goldau or to Vitznau.
After savouring the views from the lookout at Rigi Scheidegg, there appears to be a broad path leading upwards towards the restaurants and ski area, but the main footpath actually heads downwards to the left, towards the houses.

Rigi First is a train stop too, with connections to Chraebel - Goldau and Rigi Kulm (blue trains).
Seebodenalp: This plain is not only popular as starting point for climbing Rigi, it's also a lovely place just for strolling, maybe to Altruedisegg (www.ruodisegg.ch), an almost flat, well kept gravel road.

 SummitPost - Rigi -- Climbing, Hiking & Mountaineering
The Rigi is a quite well-known 1800m mountain in the pre-Alps, occupying a spectacular location above the Vierwaldstättersee (Lake Lucerne) and offering on a clear day splendid views south to the Alps as well as north back to the area around Zurich.
The Rigi, while not the highest, is one of the best known mountains in Switzerland and is named "Queen of the mountains".
The tourists were eagerly buying all sorts and styles of paper-cutters, marked "Souvenir of the Rigi," with handles made of the little curved horn of the ostensible chamois; there were all manner of wooden goblets and such things, similarly marked.

 The Rigi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The first records date from 1353, but it was not until the seventeenth century that the Rigi became well known, when pilgrims came to the Kalt-Bad to cure their ills.
This led to an embryonic development of tourism, for in 1756 the cantonal government in Lucerne authorized the opening of the first hostelry at Rigi-Kaltbad.
Two modern electric cogwheel railways and an aerial cable car fitted with every safety device convey tourists from three points in the valley to the heights of the Rigi, where many miles of footpaths and an incomparable panorama await the visitor.

Aware of the scenic location of Mt. Rigi, and driven by his pioneering spirit, Swiss engineer Niklaus Riggenbach masterminded the construction of the Vitznau-Rigi Railway in the mid-19th century.
Riggenbach himself drove the festive train to the heights of Mt. Rigi, as far as the terminus station Rigi Staffelhöhe (cantonal boundary between Lucerne and Schwyz).

 6.2 Rigi
The initial concentration of data in the Rigi interface is much too complicated to visualize.
Upon further manual inspection of the function nodes, each was a library function not recognized by Rigi and could be ignored and/or deleted.
Having a breakdown of 60 nodes is still not feasible to visualize due to the number of edges present.

 My Trip to Switzerland   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
I decided to go see a mountain, and chose Rigi because it wasn't as high and I thought maybe the clouds would be less of a problem.
The ship to Vitznau (at the bottom of Rigi) didn't leave until 9:15, so I hung around the Bahnhof and briefly checked out the area.
Unfortunately the clouds were so thick there was no view at all from the top so I took the cog railway back down immediately.

Rigi is a system for understanding large information spaces by extracting its artifacts, organizing them into higher level abstractions and presenting them graphically [20].
The relationships that the parser extracts are function calls between function entities and data references between function and data structure entities.
RSF files can then be read in by the Rigi graph editor.

The Rigi, at 1798 metres, offers a magnificent panorama over the lakes of Luzern and Zug.
There are hiking routes all over the Rigi, most starting from Rigi-Kaltbad or Rigi-Klösterli, the first accessible from both Weggis and Vitznau, the second a midway stop, barely a hamlet, on the Arth-Goldau train.
Kaltbad is a peaceful traffic-free resort on a terrace of pastureland high above Weggis; there’s a handful of hotels here, as well as relatively easy two- or three-hour hiking routes through the pine trees out to the Känzeli viewpoint, up onto the ridge at First, or to the Rotstock peak above Kaltbad (1659m).
