A hike from Emmetten to Niederbauen Kulm and back to Emmetten. 

"The hike from Emmetten to Niederbauen Kulm is a stunning, moderately challenging trail. It climbs through forested terrain and lush alpine meadows before offering a spectacular, dizzying ridge walk to the summit, rewarding you with sweeping, panoramic views of Lake Lucerne and the surrounding peaks."

Pace: In total the hike is 13km. We will maintain a moderate pace of around 400m up per hour, with an estimated hiking time around 5h30m. We'll take a longer break at the top to enjoy the view.

On the way down, those that want to shorten the hike can take the gondola from Berggasthaus Niederbauen to Emmetten. Tickets must be bought in advance for a specific time slot (https://www.niederbauen.ch/fahrplan). It is a small gondola, and tickets usually sell out a few days before.
