Unterstetten Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Here the hiking trail leads over the old railway bridge. Nice view and a small shortcut between the Dossen and the Felsenweg.

On the Dossen, you have a great all-round view and fewer people than on the nearby and overcrowded Rigi. The ascent from the Rigi side is steep and strenuous, but the panorama is well worth the effort.

With the far-sighted panorama over Lake Lucerne and the captivating mountain backdrop, the footpath is one of the most beautiful on the Rigi, but you shouldn't be afraid of heights.
