Adventure awaits - Zug highlights for every day!
Guggi viewpoint
Just a few steps from the old town, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the city of Zug.
It goes up behind the main post office. The few steps uphill are worth it. Because the view from the "Guggi" is phenomenal. The old town with its fortified towers, the castle, the Zyt Tower, the churches. The lake behind it. And further back, the foothills of the Alps and the Alps. Even the Bernese Alps on a clear day. Or the legendary Zug sunset. A real insider tip.
Zug Adventure Mountain
The funicular takes you to the Zugerberg leisure oasis in just eight minutes. From the tricky Zugiblubbi adventure trail to the relaxed circular hike - the whole family can experience unforgettable adventures together here. The Schattwäldli adventure playground is waiting to be explored and the family bond is strengthened with a cozy Cervelat barbecue.
Caves in Baar
Discover the world's only stalactite caves in the Lorzentobel near Baar.
With their fairytale-like rock formations, the Höllgrotten caves enchant young and old alike. The ideal excursion in Central Switzerland for families, school classes, groups and individual visitors of all kinds.
Morgarten Monument
Inaugurated in 1908 in a prime panoramic location, the memorial is unique in the Swiss memorial landscape. Its location and design, size and shape cannot be directly compared with any other memorial site in Switzerland.
Ägerital-Sattel
The pearl of the canton, as the Ägerisee is affectionately known, is the graceful center of the Ägerital-Sattel region.
It is hard to believe that a historic battle, the Battle of Morgarten, was once fought on the shores of this pearl. Today, only a memorial and information center remain as reminders. They are definitely worth a visit. And they can easily be combined with a hike, a bike tour or a boat trip followed by a fish lunch.
Rigi - the queen of the mountains
At 1,797 meters above sea level, the Rigi is one of the most popular excursion destinations in Central Switzerland.
The mountain is a unique mountain railroad and hiking paradise. Kilometres of hiking trails, breathtaking viewpoints, untouched nature, a varied range of restaurants and various wellness offers provide everything you need for an individual break.
Sattel-Hochstuckli
Adrenaline on the suspension bridge, skiing or tobogganing. Relaxation and enjoyment on the panoramic circular trails and in the cozy mountain inns. Whether groups, families, couples or singles, everyone will find their own personal experience on the family mountain.
Goldau Nature Reserve & Wildlife Park

Goldau Nature Reserve and Wildlife Park offers an unforgettable family experience where adventure and relaxation meet.
In the midst of Central Switzerland's nature, around 100 native and European wild animal species can be admired up close. Attractions such as the "Magic Forest" indoor playground and the Goldau landslide adventure hall make the excursion a varied experience for young and old. Restaurants and a cozy barbecue area provide culinary delights and relaxing breaks in the park.
