Cycle from the picturesque Willisau over the heights of the Oberaargau into the Emmental.

The journey from Willisau to Langnau over the foothills of the Napf is a pleasure. The route approaches the hill cascades and repeatedly finds a clever way around them. Only after the Luthertal does the route rise and lead to a magnificent viewpoint from which you can look far into the Central Plateau. Traffic-free, you revel in the lovely hill landscapes, which you circle with momentum. Soon you reach the cantonal border and can enjoy the regions of Oberaargau and Emmental. By the time you reach Sumiswald, the Emmental becomes a defining experience with its increasingly hilly passages. The FLYER masterfully handles the climbs and we enjoy the origin of this rich area, which rises to over 1100 meters at the Lüderenalp. Here you feel it, the Napf energy, as it emanates from the landscape and enchants our senses. An epic descent leads us to Langnau, the center and place of enjoyment of the Emmental.
