Enjoy the tranquility of the Inner Schwyz mountains

The Nühusweidli trail runs secluded and quiet outside the winter sports resort Stoos. The car-free mountain village at 1300 meters can be reached by the steepest funicular railway in the world. Ideal for all who want to enjoy the peace of the Inner Schwyz mountain world.

You stroll through the hilly landscape past various farms. Far down lies the Muotatal, beyond the valley basin rise the Mythen and the Muotatal mountains. The ascents are always gentle. This also applies to the one to Brunnerboden, the highest point of the hike. The starting point is the mountain station of the old Stoosbahn. You leisurely hike through the quiet and peaceful nature to the valley station of the Klingenstock chairlift. There you are welcomed again by the vibrant winter sports life and have a choice of various mountain restaurants with sun terraces.
