Rotschuo pier in 1999, seen from MV Rigi. The pier was opened in May 1998 and primarily serves a hotel on the steep lakeside between Vitznau and Gersau. The cost of extending the existing landing stage to make it suitable for calls by larger SGV vessels was covered by the hotel. A limited number of services call at Rotschuo, but included in 1999 the 09:38 (08:32 from Luzern) "Walker's Express - Weg der Schweiz" operated by MV Rigi
After the 2010 season, Rotschuo Pier disappeared from the SGV timetable
