Farneren route

The Farneren route starts at Schüpfheim train station and follows the signs of bike route 815 throughout. At the Feldgasst junction, it leads along Frutteggstrasse up to Finishütte. At the chapel, you can enjoy a wonderful view of Schafmatt and Äbnistettenflue. Via Äbnistetten the route continues uphill over Fankhus to the alpine farm Neuhütte. A short descent over Rossweid and then uphill again to Schwarzebergchrüz follows. Via Büelweid you ride downhill to Hasle and then along the Emme back to Schüpfheim.

Connection to the Schimbrig-First route is possible via Äbnistetten.

Important info / Closure of hiking and bike path: The Balmoos in Hasle is a raised bog of national importance and habitat of rare animal and plant species. Peat extraction and drainage have dried out the bog, so it is now endangered in its important functions as a habitat and CO2 reservoir. Now water retention is being improved with structural measures. During construction work until the end of October 2025, the hiking path is closed on weekdays during working hours. More information via ProNatura Lucerne.
