Felsenweg With View Towards Weggis

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful path, especially because it goes along in the shade, a real insider tip in summer, the ride on the lift is an experience.

Bürgenstock Cliff Trail

Highlight • Trail

Very nice path, even in fog. Instead of a view you have a mystical atmosphere. In the middle you can take the Hammetschwand lift to the summit of the Bürgenstock. There you can enjoy the mountain panorama.

View of Lake Lucerne from the Bürgenstock Felsenweg

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the Bürgenstock you can enjoy a very beautiful all-round view of Lake Lucerne and the surrounding mountains.
At the lift from the Bürgenstock there is the Hammetschwand self-service restaurant with stone tables and benches and in summer you can have a picnic etc. on the adjacent meadow and enjoy the wonderful view.
