Getting to and Around Lucerne
Lucerne’s station links the city to the Swiss rail network, while walking covers much of the Old Town; boats and local transport reach the wider lakeshore.
Arriving by train puts the Reuss, Chapel Bridge and the Old Town within a compact central walk. Boats offer a scenic way to reach lake destinations such as Weggis and Vitznau, while buses help with places farther from the centre, including the Swiss Museum of Transport. This mix makes the city a practical base for nearby excursions.
Useful to know
Walk the station–Chapel Bridge–Old Town area before using local transport for outlying stops.
Check current rail, boat and bus timetables when connecting to a mountain excursion.
Allow a separate ride for the Swiss Museum of Transport rather than treating it as part of the central Old Town walk.
