This is a must drive if you can deal with the very narrow curvy mountain road with very little in terms of a barricade between you and the mountain cliff. If you ever have driven the Hana road in Maui, think of that but much higher. It is easily reachable from Zurich in 2 hours, so if you have lengthy layover, jump in a rental and drive down, stop in Lucerne. The drive takes you through a few small villages where they have restaurants and cafes. Once you get to the pass, there is a viewing point with washrooms and 2 restaurants / cafe. A lot of motorcyclists on the road as it was sunny warm fall day.

The best thing about renting a car to go to Lucerne is got to drive around the lake and see other places like Altdorf. What an amazing little town nestled in the mountains and this is its signature monument and piece of history. Uri and Altdorf are so stereotypical Swiss, a small valley village surrounded by tall, snow capped mountains on a lake, that you miss the fact that it is the historical beginning of Switzerland and William Tell is the legend that explains it. Around 1300, 3 cantons with Uri being the central one wanted to overthrow Hapsburg rule and be independent. They joined forces on a lakeside meadow and the rest is factual history. The allegory story to explain this whole event is William Tell. At this point it is impossible to tell if he is real or simply legend but his story explains the birth of Switzerland and he is factually set in Altdorf the historical center of Switzerland and Uri. For me this why I felt compelled to come to understand the beginning of Switzerland. As for the monument, it is beautiful in the afternoon sun surround in the town square and the mountains. I truly believe if you come to Switzerland, you really need to visit this monument and the Tellskapelle.
