Autumn Hike: Rickenbach SZ – Rotenflue – Holzegg – Brunni

It’s time for a scenic autumn adventure! 🍂
Join us for a beautiful hike in the Mythen region – with golden forests, crisp mountain air, and fantastic views over the valley and Lake Lucerne.

We’ll start in Rickenbach SZ and hike up to the Rotenflue, a popular local peak offering a great panorama of the Schwyz valley and the Mythen mountains. From there, we’ll continue towards Holzegg, where we’ll stop at the Skihaus Holzegg to enjoy a break with food, drinks, and amazing views.

After the break, we’ll head down towards Brunni Holzegg Talstation, from where we’ll take the bus/train connections back home.
