The Furka Höhenweg, commonly known as the Urschner Höhenweg, is a panoramic route for sporty mountain bikers and offers a natural spectacle with breathtaking panoramic views towards Furka, Gotthard, and Oberalp passes.

The route leads from Andermatt train station through the valley floor towards Realp, where the path climbs up to Tiefenbach. Now single-trails come into play. The developed trail continues from Tätsch into the Lochberg valley basin and further with ups and downs to the Lutersee. As a reward, there is a breathtaking panoramic view. Afterwards, the route leads downhill along the Golfrundweg to the Reuss dam towards Giessen and back to Andermatt train station.
