"Luegeten View" of Lake Zurich

Highlight • Viewpoint

Below the Luegeten you have an incredibly beautiful view over Lake Zurich, the Seedamm and the two islands of Ufnau and Lützelau. Unfortunately, the restaurant has been closed for about 3 years, apparently due to internal disputes...

St. Meinrad Chapel (Etzel Chapel)

Highlight • Religious Site

The first chapel on the top of the pass was built in the 13th century. It was demolished and rebuilt in the 17th century. After the renovation in 2011, the chapel was re-blessed. The monk Meinrad is said to have lived as a hermit at the top of the pass in the ninth century. Meinrad later moved deeper into the Dark Forest, to what is now Einsiedeln.
