Description
At a fairly steep ascent through the Riemenstalden valley at 835 m above sea level, you first have to earn the view. Once at the top, the view opens over Lake Uri and the mountains as well as the Rütli on the opposite side of the lake. The path soon leads gently downhill over the heights of Morschach again. Passing the holiday and leisure resort «Swiss Holiday Park» you head onto the former track of the old rack railway Brunnen-Morschach to the Axenstein-Känzeli with a magnificent view over Lake Lucerne to the Pilatus.
Now descend through woodland areas and clearings until you see the roofs of Brunnen. Before boarding the train or ship again in Brunnen, a visit to the Auslandschweizerplatz by the lake is worthwhile.
