Rigi Dossen Trail

A richly diverse high-altitude hike topped off by an exhilarating climb to Dossen's peak! From Rigi Klösterli, there's a gentle incline as you walk up through the mountain forest and lush meadows via Heiterenboden on the way to Unterstetten. Here, you'll see the former Scheidegg railway line with it's impressive bridge and there's also a large picnic area where you can take a well-earned rest. Afterwards you have to face to Dossen's steep slopes, but once you reach the summit, the breathtaking view of Lake Lucerne an Bürgenstock peninsula will make whole trip more than it worth. This is literally the apex of the trail. It's followed by a gradual descent into Hinterdossen and a mostly flat path from there to Scheidegg for a relaxing conclusion to the hike. An aerial cable car connects Scheidegg with Kraebel, where there's also a Rigi cogwheel train station.
