Lindenberg trail
================

- Tip

- Round trip
- Difficulty: medium
- Condition: easy
- Great panorama
- cross country skiing

Since 1971, there have been trails for every level on the approximately 850-meter-high Lindenberg. Mostly lying above the sea of fog, the Horben trail offers a panoramic view from the Zug region to the Rigi and far into the foothills and Alps.

As soon as the grooming vehicle is in operation on the Horben, it means for cross-country skiers: strap on your skis. Beginners can warm up on a shorter practice loop (1.4 km). The longest trail, which leads into the neighboring canton of Lucerne, is the one over the Lindenberg. The elongated mountain ridge is easily accessible, making it a popular recreational area for the Freiamt, the Seetal, and the canton of Zug.

Another plus: the panorama above the sea of fog. This is already offered to skiers after the first short ascent over the fields: the view stretches over the Upper Freiamt to the Rigi and Titlis. The route continues past a rustic farmstead – always along the edge of the forest. Those who want to enjoy the view again can make a loop downhill back towards the restaurant. For ambitious skiers, the route branches off towards Lindenberg. Several sections of the Horben trail pass through the forest, where the snow-covered trees create a winter atmosphere.

Start and finish are located at the Horben alpine hut, which lies on the southeast side of the ridge, not far from Horben Castle.
