Tell-Trail stage 6: Engelberg - Älggialp

In Engelberg, take the cable car to Trüebsee and then transfer to the chairlift to Jochpass. The following hike is one of the most beautiful routes in the Lucerne-Lake Lucerne region. From Engstlensee, you walk over the Spycherflüe to Melchsee-Frutt. The second part of the route leads past Hochstollen and along rocky trails to Seefeldsee. The route continues through the marshy protected area Sachsler Seefeld to the geographical center of Switzerland at Älggialp. Staying overnight at Älggialp is something very special.

Walking time: approx. 6 hours | Distance: 20 km (excluding mountain railways) | Ascent: 563 m (with mountain railways: 1,763 m) | Descent: 1,157 m
