A circular route starting in the Herb Village Hergiswil across the hilly landscape with impressive views of the Napf region.

We start in the middle of the village Hergiswil at 646 m and follow the signpost towards Lindenegg. After a short stretch on asphalt, we turn left and follow the path over fields and meadows. Taking a break, we look back and enjoy the beautiful view of the village. Past a small "Märtlihüsli", the steep climb at Lindenegg at 839 m is rewarded with a beautiful view of the "hills" of the Napf region. After 10 minutes, we reach the farms at Unders-Chapf. From there, we follow the signpost Chanzelsagen. The path often leads cross-country and then leisurely through the forest down the hill into the Rohrmatt valley. From there, we walk along the road to Chanzelsagen. We refresh ourselves in the rustic Restaurant Sagali. Well strengthened, we tackle the next climb towards St. Joder and reach the highest point of the route "Seeblenschür" at 910 m. From there, we mostly hike down broad natural paths towards Hübeli, enjoying the view of the Jura ridge and the Napf region. Passing the legendary ski lift Hübeli, we reach the signpost Opfersei and from there hike towards Hergiswil. Above the sawmill, the path leads past a fireplace. Then it goes leisurely along the Änziwigger stream back to the village Hergiswil.
