Along the rushing Schächenbach stream, discover the typical scattered settlements of the Schächental. A first coffee break is offered in Unterschächen, in one of the cosy guesthouses. When you enter the Brunnital, a fantastic view of the Gross Ruchen, the largest limestone rock face in Europe, opens up for you. Through picturesque coniferous forests, follow the dirt road via Rüti to Alp Brunni. The path now gently ascends via Nider Lammerbach, past the cosy Brunni Chapel, to Trogenalp. At the mountain inn, you can enjoy fine alpine cheese and an authentic Schächental coffee alongside the idyllic view.
The return journey takes place on the old access road along Hinterschächen. Through species-rich meadows of flowers and colourful forest sections, you reach the Lauwi homestead, which features lovingly carved wild animals around the hut. Past the Badkapelle, nestled between the steep rock walls of the Brunnital, you reach Unterschächen. From here, you take the descent via the Klausenstrasse back to Altdorf.
