This trail is an insider tip. The mostly flat cicular route stretches over 5.5 kilometres. The starting and ending point are both at the car park/mountain station of Küssnacht-Seebodenalp cable car and leads you along the ridge towards Alp Ruodisegg. After a long left turn, the trail leads back to the Seebodenalp car park. The fantastic view of the central Switzerland accompanies you constantly. The trail is prepared when snow conditions are good and can be used free of charge.

For your information

You can find the current operating status of the railways here.

In order to let our next generation also be inspired from the Queen of the Mountains, may we ask you to dispose of your own waste at Rigi Stations. Thank you.

Author’s recommendation

During this wonderful round trip you will enjoy the brilliant view, take a look of the Küssnacht lake basin and the Mt. Pilatus.
