Things to Do Lucerne with Kids | Family Holidays Lucerne

Family holidays in Lucerne and on Lake Lucerne

Our holiday apartment is located in Dierikon, in the Rontal valley between Lucerne and Zug. From here, you can reach the most beautiful destinations in Central Switzerland quickly and easily, whether mountains, lake, culture or indoor adventures on rainy days. We have tested the experiences ourselves with our son Paul and put together our favourites for you.

Holidays by season

Every season brings its own programme in Central Switzerland. We have created dedicated pages for the most popular travel periods, where you will find everything you need for planning.

In winter, the ski resorts around Engelberg, Melchsee-Frutt and Soerenberg are calling. Whether beginners or advanced, whether on the slopes or tobogganing: the mountains of Central Switzerland offer snow fun for the whole family. Find out more on our page Ski holidays in Lucerne.

Lucerne Carnival is one of the biggest and most vibrant carnivals in Switzerland. From Dirty Thursday to Guedis Tuesday, the city transforms into a colourful festival with parades, brass bands and costumes. The Chendermonschter is an unforgettable experience, especially for children. More on our page Lucerne Carnival.

One of the most beautiful day trips takes you by boat across Lake Lucerne and by cogwheel railway up Mount Rigi. At the top, a panorama across lakes and Alps awaits, along with an easy hike and lunch with a view. Our page A Day on Lake and Mountain shows the full route and how to book at the best price.

The Golden Round Trip to Mount Pilatus is one of the great experiences in Central Switzerland. Five modes of transport in a single day, including the steepest cogwheel railway in the world and a boat cruise across Lake Lucerne. Pilatus is extremely popular, however, and without a reservation the wait at the cogwheel railway can exceed several hours. Our page The Golden Round Trip to Mount Pilatus shows you the best route and how to secure tickets and seats in advance.

Autumn in Central Switzerland is mild, colourful and quiet. The mountain railways are still running, the hiking trails are empty, and the forests glow in every colour. Ideal for families who want to experience the region without the summer crowds. Our page Autumn holidays with children shows you what to expect.

If you want to combine work and family holidays, our apartment offers the ideal setting. Fast Wi-Fi, a quiet location and the most beautiful destinations right on your doorstep. Find out more on our page Workation in Lucerne.
