Fluonalp - Dundelegg
From the parking lot, a farm road leads to the Fluonalp huts and further eastwards to Rieben. From here, it goes uphill to the large, solitary mountain hut Schwantelen. Soon, the magnificent viewpoint Sädel is reached via the alpine path. It offers views of Lungerersee, Sarnersee, and Alpnachersee as the Obwalden arm of Lake Lucerne. The entire Sarneraatal from Brünig to Lopper lies at your feet.
From here, the hike proceeds westwards along an old border wall between Giswil and Lungern to Dundelegg. This again offers a wonderful view of the Bernese Alps and the Haslital. The mountain path then turns northwards over alpine pastures back to the starting point.
