Itinerary

After you’ve dropped your luggage off in Brunnen, today begins with a boat trip to Rütli. A short, but challenging hike follows. Both the starting point and destination are hugely fascinating, as are the thought-provoking quotes carved into the rocks along the way, which transform this challenging climb into quite a reflective journey. en.

This stage follows the Weg der Schweiz from Rütli via Flüelen and on to Brunnen. From some spots, you can catch a glimpse of Lake Uri in all its splendour. Attractive stately homes are dotted throughout the landscape between Seelisberg and Bauen and near Seedorf. There are plenty of places to get a bite to eat and maybe have a swim along the way.

We continue on Weg der Schweiz today. Between Flüelen and Sisikon, the hike follows a lakeside path reminiscent of the Riviera, passing Tell’s chapel and Tell’s slab. The climb from Sisikon is steep, but you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views once you get to the top. Your arrival in Brunnen concludes this tour – it’s now time to collect your luggage and depart.

Tour character

The route around Lake Lucerne is steep in places. Good basic fitness is necessary for the climbs and some of the longer stages. Some days include sections on paved roads.
