Urmiberg-Timpel-Rigi Hochflue-Gersau (T5-)

The route already starts with magnificent views of Lake Uri and the Uri Alps. If you want, you can enjoy a coffee on the Urmiberg before starting. It is definitely worth it because such a view is rare on a terrace. The normal hiking trail leads to Egg. From there we follow the white-blue-white hiking signs and soon notice the difference. The path becomes rocky, rooty and increasingly steep. A memorial plaque for two victims makes us pause briefly. We hike mindfully and safely. The path changes from dry good trails to steep difficult climbing passages. We like the variety and suddenly it levels off and we stand at the summit. We descend via a long ladder to Gätterlipass and continue over blooming meadows to Gersau. We take the boat back to the starting point Brunnen.
