Hiking
The Gnipen is the western peak of the Rossberg, on the border between the cantons of Schwyz and Zug – almost 1567 meters high. Its distinctive, bare southwest slope offers spectacular views into the area of the Goldau landslide of 1806, in which approximately 40 million cubic meters of rock slid down the slope and almost completely destroyed Goldau.
