square metres the park boasts of more than 120 models of all
the Swiss attractions like the Matterhorn, Jungfrau, the Chapel
Bridge, Chillon Castle, cathedrals and other buildings of Switzerland.
Since no model of Switzerland can be complete without its world

Mt Pilatus - Pilatus offers a unique excursion with the
world's steepest railway, spectacular cable cars, and modern
panorama gondolas. The highlight of this excursion is the magnificent
view from 7000 feet above sea level. The cogwheel is the steepest
of its kind in the world. It starts at the base of Mount Pilatus
in Alpnachstad and runs over uniquely constructed tracks to
the summit of the mountain. You can also descend by the aerial
tramway and panoramic gondolas back to Lucerne. This unique
"Golden Roundtrip" will remain an unforgettable memory.
Schilthorn - From the top, at almost 3000 mts altitude,
you can admire the breathtaking 360° alpine panorama. Over
200 mountain peaks in a spectacular landscape are revealed as
the world's first revolving mountain - top restaurant, The Piz
Gloria, slowly turns. The unimpeded global view stretches from
the Titlis along the Bernese Alps to the Mont Blanc and across
the fertile lowland plains to the Black Forest. This restaurant,
with 400 seats and a large selection of a-la-carte dishes, takes
a full circle within a comfortable 55 minutes. During this time
you can admire the wonderful world of the mountains. You can
also visit the 'Touristorama'- a multimedia room where you can
watch the highlights from the James Bond film ' On Her Majesty's
Secret Service and multi-vision show on the region.
