Description
From the village, we quickly gain elevation and are soon rewarded with a beautiful view. On alpine paths, we reach the ridge along which the border trail runs. Those who wish can make a detour to the well-known viewpoint Ahorn, about 20 minutes away, where you can be well catered for at the Ahornalp mountain restaurant. Our varied path leads southward toward Napf. Along the way, we also pass the well-equipped barbecue site "Seppi a de Weggere," dedicated to the well-known folklorist Josef Zihlmann. At the Alp Ober Scheidegg, we leave the border trail and begin the descent, which leads us through alpine pastures and wooded sections. Passing stately farms, we reach the valley floor and soon the village of Luthern.
