We wanted to go for the Golden Round Trip to Pilatus . I was looking at the advantages of having the Swiss Travel Pass and it says mountain excursion to Pilatus is covered . My doubt is, how much of the Golden Round Trip is covered and how much would I be required to pay extra for the trip when I have the pass(on average).

For 2017, all of the Golden Pass round trip to Mt. Pilatus is covered with a Swiss Travel Pass (in prior years, some sections were fully covered, others were only 50% off).
To see what's covered on your pass, go to the second page of this PDF and zoom in; you also get a copy when you buy the pass: https://www.swissrailways.com/sites/default/files/upload/documents/uebersichtskarte_2017_en.pdf
Everything with a solid line is fully covered with a Swiss Travel Pass. Everything with a dotted line is 50% off, except for those things with a circled number 1 next to them, which are only 25% off. When you enlarge the PDF, you'll see that all ways between Luzern and Pilatus - boats, buses, trains, cog railways, etc - are solid lines.

Thanks Harold . I was reading some old posts in this site , thats when I had the confusion if it was completely covered or only a part.
