Gruebisbalm Cave

The Gruebisbalm cave, located on the southern slopes of the Rigi, "Queen of the Mountains," high above Lucerne's dazzling Lake Lucerne, provides an unusual venue for galas, feasts, and shows. This cave is considered one of the most beautiful caves in Switzerland.

The Gruebisbalm cave provides an unusual location for galas, feasts, and shows. Trains on Europe's oldest cog railway ascend about 500 vertical meters in roughly 7 minutes from Vitznau on the lakefront to Gruebisbalm station. A 10-minute walk along a lit route leads to the cave entrance hidden behind a waterfall from here.

A small lake can be found inside the cave, as well as space for buffet dinners with up to 400 people seated at wooden benches and tables. The Indian Cave Dinner, which features delectable cuisine from the subcontinent, is one of the specialties; other Swiss and regional meals are also available.

DJs, alphorn players, musical ensembles, and performance artists can all be contracted for dancing and entertainment on the stage. Flowers may be placed in the grotto, and floating candles can be used to magically brighten the lake. Although the cave is heated, it is nevertheless suggested that you dress warmly.
