Spirstock

The hike starts in the small mountain village of Illgau with a cable car ride from Illgau to St. Karl. Before setting off, enjoy the view of the Fronalpstock and the Muotatal mountain world. Even the short distance to Oberberg is enough to absorb the peace and gentleness of the landscape and unwind. Off the well-trodden paths, the route continues to Chaltenbrunnen, Eseltritt and to the first viewpoint: Sternenegg. The two Mythen mountains tower impressively and dominate the panoramic view.

From Sternenegg, the hike steadily rises gently along sunny gravel and field paths. Cows graze on the alpine meadows and ring their bells. After the Laucheren chapel, it gets a little steeper until the ascent to Spirstock is behind us. From the second viewpoint of the route, turn around once and let your gaze wander far over Lake Lucerne and Lake Zurich, until it is magically drawn again by the Mythen.

On the way back, walk over Fäderenberg, Ober Hasen and take the path in Unter Zimmerstalden to the mountain station of the Illgau - St. Karl aerial cableway. The route ends after the descent with the cable car in the village of Illgau.
