Hikers set out on the beautiful Unteralp circular route following the traces of the local alpine flora. Along the herb educational trail, you discover a variety of plants and learn more about the application and healing effects of the respective herbs.
The Aurira herb booklet is available at the Tourist Info in Andermatt.
The beautiful circular route in Unteralp leads from the village bridge up steps to the Mariahilf Chapel. Only a few meters further, the first rest area with a fireplace and stream invites you to linger. After a short break, the path leads up to the shooting house. From there you have a beautiful view of the Urschner valley, the Nächsten, and the surrounding mountains. Then it continues to the waterfall of the Gurschenbach. Over the bridge, you begin the descent again. Along the path, you continue into the valley, turning right at the fork until you reach lush meadows and cross a smaller bridge to the other side of the valley to take the path back to Andermatt .
