WanderWunder Schwyz: Rigi Hinter Dosse
Rigi Scheidegg - Hinter Dosse - Dosse - Unterstetten - Sea route - Hinter Dosse - Rigi ScheideggThe circular hike scores points with a brilliant view of the surrounding mountain peaks and the Swiss lakes. With optimal visibility you can see as far as the Black Forest and even discover the Säntis.
With the Kräbel-Rigi Scheidegg cable car you reach the starting point of the hike. With a view of Lake Lucerne and the Alps - even the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau greet you from afar - you hike along the ridge to the turnoff behind Dosse and then up to the Dosse. You will be rewarded with a phenomenal view for the somewhat steep ascent. Sticks are recommended for the equally steep descent towards Unterstetten. Via the lake path you will reach Hinter Dosse again, from where you can easily reach the Rigi Scheidegg on the route of the old Kaltbad-Scheidegg railway.
