Hike Weg der Schweiz stage 3 (Fluelen - Sisikon section)

Details

Join me on this explorative hike of the stage 3 of the Swiss Path (one section of the historic Weg Der Schweiz).

This is a 7km long medium hike from Fluelen to Sisikon.

The plan is to take it easy enjoying the beautiful views of the lake on a sunny day and have lunch at one of the picnic spots (bring your packed lunch). We also have the option of stopping for a coffee break at a restaurant along the way.

The hike is expected to take 2 hours 15 mins, plus additional time for lunch and breaks.

This hike is rated as easy to medium (depending on sources). It is the first time I do it myself so I cannot provide personal experience, please read the info in the link to decide if this is for you:
