On this magnificent alpine meadow you can, with a bit of luck, see the farmers mowing the slopes in laborious manual work to make hay out of it for the winter.

narrow and varied trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This section of the trail from Hüttenboden to Franzen leads on very beautiful, narrow and varied paths. A certain head for heights is probably required here, the terrain is sloping. The views from the path are beautiful and the ground is extremely varied. Sometimes the path leads on earthy, rocky or rooty ground and always on a narrow path.
This is a wonderful section and a path that I really like 😍😍😍.

At the viewpoint, there is a bank that invites you to take a break. When you look at the blue lake below you and the mighty mountain backdrop in the background, you can recharge your batteries for your hike.

East Ridge of Rophaien

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The Rophaien-Ostgrat connects the Äbneter Stöckli, the Roten Chöpf and the Rophaien to a varied ridge hike. The ridge does not have its own traditional name and is usually simply referred to as Ostgrat. The route offers impressive deep views as well as wonderful views of Lake Lucerne and the Urner Alps. Sure-footedness, a head for heights and stable conditions are required.

June 22, 2025,Rophaien – Eggberge-Runde von Flüelen
A stunningly beautiful panoramic tour of the Rophaien. A steep climb, after which your legs won't need a gym session. From Franzen to Schön Chulm, it's T4, but not particularly difficult technically.

Beautiful round on varied paths, lined with millions of flowers at this time. The meadows are incredibly colorful and vast. Of course, the view is not to be forgotten. The ascent is really steep and demanding. On the other hand, the descent is pleasant. (According to Garmin, it was 1150 meters of elevation gain)

This is a wonderful tour over the Rophaien with a summit cross. During the whole tour, and of course also from Rophaien, you can marvel at incredible panoramas almost continuously.

But be warned: The tour leads over two blue / white marked T4 route sections, which are very difficult and dangerous for the inexperienced. Although the most difficult climbing sections …

Varied tour with beautiful views down to Lake Lucerne 😍😍😍😍👌.

The Rophaien can be climbed via three different routes and is often well attended, but today I was lucky and to my pleasant surprise it was an extremely quiet tour 🥰🥰🥰. And in addition to the beautiful views, the cloud development was once again super impressive 😍😍😍. Thunderstorms were approaching …

Today one can say; I was in the right place at the right time ... the otherwise well-visited destinations and paths were mostly lonely and pleasantly quiet today. I even had the summit of the Rophaien all to myself for a short time and then the Diepen and the Hüenderegg and many sections entirely 🥰🥰🥰, oh how I love something …

The paths on this tour to and from Rophaien lead over two blue / white marked T4 sections, is not a particularly difficult T4, but of course the paths require a head for heights and surefootedness

I also did this wonderful tour last year and was thrilled like last time 😍😍😍
