Pilatus is the name of a mountain range consisting of several relatively low mountains and hills. The highest mountain has a height of more than 2 thousand meters and is called Pilatus Kulm.
You can also climb Pilatus on the steepest railway in the world. A special mechanism was invented for it - gear rails, and the cars have gear wheels so that they do not slip. Unfortunately, in April this road did not work, so only the cable car remained. The ascent to the mountain is quite sharp, periodically lays the ears, the feeling of emptiness underfoot is a little scary at first. The ascent has three transfers, on each there is time to look around. And here we are at the top. Far below, there was a large lake and Lucerne. The weather on the top of the mountain is unpredictable - the sun is shining, and in half an hour everything can be covered with clouds and become gloomy and uncomfortable.
However, in my opinion, purely subjective - mountains and lakes are the best thing in Switzerland. It is impossible to describe what I saw in words. It needs to be experienced and experienced. I can say one thing - you can admire the panoramas of the mountains endlessly.
