Benefit from our school offer.
Immerse yourself in the fantastic world of adventure on Mount Pilatus.
In the Middle Ages, Pilatus was a mythical place – it was believed that dragons lived in the crevices of the mountain. Today, it’s a popular destination for nature lovers of all ages. Hiking trails, two ropes parks, the world’s steepest cog railway and many other attractions make it perfect for an unforgettable school trip.
