The former mule tracks were the most important connection to the south. On the way to Göschenen, you can admire the imposing high rock walls of the Schöllenen Gorge with the foaming Reuss. The hike continues past avalanche galleries to the stone-built Häderli Bridge, then on to Göschenen train station. Halfway there is a cozy resting place with a barbecue area."
