This short hike leads from valley to valley, mostly on natural paths and with beautiful panoramic views. The route can be extended as desired all the way to Willisau.

From the pilgrimage site Luthern Bad, the path passes the Gasthof Hirschen along the valley floor to the junction "Wisshubelhütten". Afterwards, the path leads variedly through wooded areas and over meadows. Soon a beautiful view over the Napf region and the Jura ridge opens up. From Unterberg, it goes along the lightly trafficked main road to Hintersagi.

There is the possibility to walk past the Neue Napfmilch AG on the "Milk-Herbs-Cheese Path" or along the official Wigger hiking trail. Soon the herb village Hergiswil comes into view, where you can shorten the waiting time for the postbus to Willisau in Café Thalmann.
