The sporty snowshoe trail from Maria-Rickenbach offers impressive views of the Engelberg valley and runs mostly through forests and meadows. It starts at the mountain station, runs along the monastery walls and steadily ascends, passing Steinrüti and a log cabin. The path continues over the Buoholzbach and ends after a steep section back in the village of Maria-Rickenbach.
