Nice path in the shade, which is really good in summer.

Bürgenstock Cliff Trail

Highlight • Trail

Very nice path, even in fog. Instead of a view you have a mystical atmosphere. In the middle you can take the Hammetschwand lift to the summit of the Bürgenstock. There you can enjoy the mountain panorama.

Beautiful path, especially because it goes along in the shade, a real insider tip in summer, the ride on the lift is an experience.
