On top of the mountain there is a restaurant and observation decks. The views from the top are lovely and the air is crisp and fresh. On top of the mountain you can see views of three countries, ten swiss lakes, and over 62 miles of Alpine mountain range at 6,000 feet above sea level.
It is possible to hike up the mountain or you can go up the mountain by cable car. If there is a lot of snow the hiking trails will be closed. I would recommend going up by cable car if you are short on time.
After going up Mount Stanserhorn I went on a cruise on Lake Lucerne. A cruise on this lake is a wonderful experience as it is very scenic and the lake is surrounded by beautiful mountains.
