Stäubenweg Gurtnellen
On the short route, 230 meters of elevation are overcome via numerous stairs. Bridges are crossed along the way, the impressive Dreistäuber Falls admired, and strength replenished. The view into the Gorner Gorge is breathtaking. At the top, the Stäuben Chapel perches like an eagle's nest above the rocks. Several benches and rest areas invite you to linger.
