Traveling with a disability

Wheelchair accessible – from the Panorama terrace to the hotel room

Our public restrooms on the Pilatus and at individual stations are wheelchair accessible. This is also true for the elevators in Pilatus Kulm. Room access is thereby ensured for all guests at the Hotel Pilatus-Kulm, the various restaurants and the 1,000 square-meter Panorama terrace.

Travel in comfort on the cogwheel railway as well as the panorama gondola and aerial cableway. To ensure that your Pilatus journey gets off to the best possible start, please book in advance (at least one day in advance) by calling +41 (0)41 329 11 11. Persons arriving via Kriens with manual wheelchairs do not need to register.
