A touch of southern ambiance - From Brunnen on the Waldstätterquai, the square dedicated to the Swiss living abroad and on the lake side to Brünischart and the start of the mountain trail through almost Mediterranean-like forest vegetation with wonderful panoramic views. Vitznau is reached via Gersau.

Note(s)
Route number 98 is always signposted. As regional route of the SwitzerlandMobility network, it is signposted throughout and in both directions.
