Hike Bürgenstock NW – Oberbürgen > Oberbürgen Time 3-3 ½ hours, Distance 12 Km, Uphill - ca. 300 m, Downhill - ca. 300 m Starting point Free parking places in Oberbürgen Photos and GPS Track Short walk over the Bürgenstock. Well walked and clearly defined paths. Follow the signposts – maybe they ran out of paint but we found none of the usual yellow markings.
Pleasant walking all the way. The outstanding attractions of this easy hike are the fantastic views of the 'Lake of the Four Cantons' from the rock/cliff path between Bürgenstock along to the Hammetschwand lift and the lift itself.
Restaurants: Bürgenstock, Hammetschwand und Trogen.
Another possibility for ‚elderly visitors’ would be to do the trip by boat from Luzern to Kehrsiten-Bürgenstock, then take the
funicular to Bürgenstock, followed by a 25 minute stroll (almost all flat) to the
lift.
