Tour
Explore one of the most popular hiking and biking areas in the Uri holiday region. The Maderanertal - wild romantic with rushing streams and misty waterfalls. The destination of the route is the historic SAC Hotel Maderanertal.

From Amsteg, the first stage of your route leads along the paved road to the village of Bristen. The road, partly blasted into the rock, winds upwards in tight curves and lets you repeatedly gaze into the valley. After Bristen, you can recover on a flatter section up to the Golzern cable car. Following the Chärstelenbach, the natural road steadily rises to the cozy restaurant Lägni. The route continues through forest and fragrant alpine meadows, always accompanied by the rushing of the stream. At the SAC Hotel Maderanertal, which dates back to the golden mountain guide era, you will be rewarded with local hospitality and a fantastic view into the valley. The return leads you to Alp Butzli – a detour to the idyllic Butzlisee is not to be missed! Over a singletrail with technically demanding sections, you reach Guferen and then Alp Stössi with excellent alpine cheese. Via Herenlimi, you reach again the valley station of the Golzern cable car. At St. Anton, you branch off towards Vorder Ried and enjoy the attractive singletrail to Amsteg as the finale.
