From Amsteg, bikers ride after a short ascent on the Gotthard mule track to Meitschligen. From the eastern valley flank between Gurtnellen and Wassen, the trains winding up the upper Reuss valley over bridges, viaducts, and hairpin tunnels can be observed very well. Behind Wattingen, you pass under the canopy of the St. Joseph chapel, built in the 18th century. The route continues along a magnificent forest path via Neiselental to Göschenen. Along the steep rock walls of the Schöllenenschlucht and the Urnerloch, the first tunnel in the Alps, the turning point Andermatt is reached. The return journey leads over the mountain road to Gurtnellen village. Then follows an attractive descent over field paths to Meitschligen, then the same way back to Amsteg.
