The Panorama walking trail is also an experience for families, as it can be walked with an all-terrain pram. The view of Lake Lucerne, the mythical Rütli meadow and the Central Swiss Alps is unique.

If you can't cover the ridge path from Klingenstock to Fronalpstock, you won't have to do without the special panoramic experience. The Panorama-Walk is a mini-variant, so to speak, that concentrates on the final bouquet of the ridge path. The steepest funicular in the world travels to the car-free holiday village of Stoos at 1300 metres. The chairlift then takes you up to the 1922-metre-high Fronalpstock. Once at the top, the view is overwhelming. Ten lakes and countless peaks of Central Switzerland lie at our feet. The comfortable walk, which is suitable for prams, is relatively flat and leads back to the summit restaurant. The little ones can have fun on the large playground or romp around with the dwarf goats. The picnic possibility at the playground and various resting places on the summit invite you to linger.
