Why go
Pilatus is a mountain massif whose Wikidata item places it in the cantons of Obwalden, Nidwalden and Lucerne. Pilatus-Bahnen AG runs a cogwheel railway from Alpnachstad, aerial cableways and panorama gondolas, and hotels and restaurants on the mountain, including at Pilatus Kulm; Lucerne Tourism's Pilatus page lists the trip up from Kriens as well. The operator's viewpoints page names the Esel and the Oberhaupt as viewpoints and calls the Tomlishorn the highest point, and Lucerne Tourism lists a trail from Pilatus Kulm to the Tomlishorn. This record is the mountain, not the railway, the cableways or the Pilatus Kulm station area; its map point is the Tomlishorn summit, not Pilatus Kulm. The operator's home page recommends reserving a seat on the cogwheel railway in good weather.
