The circular route starts at Entlebuch train station - here are various places to eat with the two Biosphere Gastro-Partner establishments Bahnhöfli Entlebuch or Drei Könige Entlebuch - and leads through several residential neighborhoods. Note: At the former post office, leave the main road to the left and first reach the hamlet of Lehn via neighborhood streets, then a gravel path. A peculiarity is the hamlet of Wilzige, which consists of five farms. At the height of Juch, you can see a pressure station for the Holland–Italy natural gas pipeline.
At Emmenmätteli, you enter a uniquely beautiful river landscape of the Kleine Emme, which is nationally protected as a floodplain landscape. There is a rest area on the way and some bathing opportunities are available. Interesting observations of plants and animals are possible, especially at Emmenmätteli, where there is also an information board about the flood in 2005.
