Short, mostly downhill hike from Fräkmüntegg via Ober Lauelen to Eigenthal with beautiful views of numerous peaks.

The starting point is Fräkmüntegg at 1,416 metres. The trail first passes the Fräkgaudi toboggan run and continues via Lauelenegg (1,442 m) to Alp Ober Lauelen (1,332 m). Here, the challenging Heitertannliweg trail (Route 6 / C) branches off. The route then continues downhill to the Unterlauelen Alpine farm (1,063 metres) and along the Rümlig torrent to the Eigenthal Talboden post bus stop. Along the way, several barbecue areas invite you to enjoy a leisurely barbecue. Eigenthal, at the foot of Mount Pilatus, is a popular recreational area in the Lucerne region.
