Herzschlaufe Napf (SchweizMobil Route 399)

150 kilometers, 3 daily stages and 4200 meters of altitude

Since April 2018, the Herzschlaufe Napf complements the Herzroute. The three-day circular route starts in Willisau, leads to Langnau and the Entlebuch and ends again in Willisau. The route goes through hilly countryside and mostly follows low-traffic paths. On ridges and heights, there is a wonderful view of the Napf landscape and the Alps. Combine your route with a stop at inns and taverns offering regional specialties and relax in the quietly located guesthouses and hotels along the route in the evening.

The 3 daily stages of the Herzschlaufe Napf

Stage Willisau – Langnau
The 57 km lead through the green Willisauer Land and along lush meadows of the Emmental and Oberaargau. On the first stage, 1500 meters of altitude must be overcome – it goes up and down through the wonderful pre-Alpine landscape.

Stage Langnau - Entlebuch
On this shortest stage of 44 km, you will experience a great day in the Emmental and Entlebuch. The landscape with its green hills and valleys is unique at any time of the day.

Stage Entlebuch – Willisau
Discover countless sights of the Napf along the low-traffic route: Romoos, the wild Fontanne, a tributary of the Kleine Emme, Menzberg located over 1000 m above sea level, the romantic Luthertal and much more. The charming town of Willisau invites you to take a break with its beautiful old town. After 54 km and 1600 meters of altitude, you have earned a nice dinner in Willisau.
