The Klewenalp region, just above Lake Lucerne, offers many opportunities for hikers in both summer and winter. Located at 1593 m above sea level, here you can enjoy the sun's rays even on cloudy days, above the sea of fog. During the cold season, the area also offers plenty of options for winter sports enthusiasts who can get here easily, both by car and by public transport.

Distance 5.4 km
The hike we propose is a linear route that starts from the upper station of the Beckenried - Klewenalp cable car and, following a well-prepared path, offers a magnificent view of the imposing mountains that surround this region and of Lake Lucerne, often during the winter covered by a surprising sea of fog. This is an easy route of about 5.5 km that can be covered in about two hours at a relaxed pace. The trail is well-marked and runs along snowy, well-prepared roads, so just wear good waterproof hiking shoes.
