This route offers a magnificent view of the Napfbergland. From the herb village Hergiswil, the hiking trail leads along the babbling Enziwigger back to Willisau.

The hike begins in the historic old town of Willisau. The path leads steeply uphill, past the Landvogt castle to Vorberg. The strenuous ascent is rewarded with a magnificent view. From there, the comfortable hiking trail leads over the broad ridge between the Enzi- and Buechwigger to Mörisegg. Lindenegg is the highest point of this hike. Afterwards, you hike down into the herb village of Hergiswil. The herb village earns its name from the herb cultivation that has been maintained for about 20 years. What started as pioneering work has now become an indispensable source of income for agriculture. Who knows, perhaps this hike passes by a fragrant herb field. From Hergiswil, you walk along the gentle Enziwigger back to Willisau.
