Wilderer Trail to Fürenalp

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

What is "wild" about this path is the incline, which hardly lets up. OK, then you'll get to your destination quicker ;-). There are always impressive views down into the Stierenbach valley.
The path is only recognizable by traces of the path (no other markings), so please avoid it if there is fresh snow! It also requires concentrated walking, especially if you're going downhill. A slip could end badly in this terrain.

Blackenalp Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Alp can be reached from Fürenalp in about one and a half hours. The Blackenalp is an excellent stopover on the Surenen Pass hike. The Alpbeizli is open from June to September and you can also stay overnight here.

Trail to Blackenalp

Highlight • Trail

Discover the Blackenalp on a hike through the Surenental. The path takes you through an impressive natural landscape with numerous waterfalls. Although the Blackenalp was once disputed between the cantons of Engelberg and Uri, the conflict has long since been settled and you can enjoy the peace and grandeur of the area to the fullest.

Engelberger Aa River

Highlight • River

The Engelberger Aa (or Engelbergeraa) is a river in Switzerland. It rises west of the Surenen Pass in the canton of Uri, flows through the valleys of Engelberg (Obwalden) and Nidwalden and finally empties into Lake Lucerne (also known as Lake Lucerne). As a tributary of the Reuss, it contributes to the drainage of the lake. The river's source is at an altitude of about 2,200 metres, and it falls rapidly, taking in water from various mountain streams.

Later then past the rushing Stäuber waterfall. From there a detour to the Blackenalp 35 min. During the alpine summer, a mountain restaurant with delicacies always …

Today we were in Little Patagonia.
The rock formations of the small and large Spannort actually reminded us strongly of the Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia.
We started at the Fürenalp mountain station and hiked through enchanting flower meadows to Blackenalp. There we treated ourselves to a sweet break and marveled at the mountains in the valley basin …

The climb over the waterfalls was strenuous but there was something new and worth seeing in every corner. Fürenalp offers everything a hiker's heart desires.
Until then everything is fine. The descent to Engelberg via the chosen route was terrible! Trodden by cows, muddy, miserably steep and all in all not really nice.
I was annoyed that I didn't go …
