Description

General information

Route: T2, have shoes with good grip. If you don't know what the T-Scale is, read this blog (click here).

Pace: Moderate pace, for which you won't have any problem if you're doing sports regularly.

Meeting point:  Beckenried Post - 10:40 / For those taking boat, we will meet 09:00 in Luzern in front of KKL

Transportation: The starting time (10:40) makes it possible to take a train from Zürich.

  • Option 1 (Public Transport - Organizers choice): Zürich HB 7:51 to Luzern, then by boat from Luzern 09:12 to Beckenried Post arriving 10:26
  • Option 2 (Public Transport): Take train Zurich HB 08:51 to Luzern, change in direction of Stans and from there by bus to Beckenried Post arriving 10:04
  • Option 3 (car) Possibility to park the car at Klewenalp cabine parking spot in Beckenried

In both cases, add / join a car in the Carpool screen. If you come by train, add a "fake car".


To do before the hike

  • The day of the hike AND one hour before the hike, come have a look at the comments at the bottom of this page to know about potential last minute updates.
  • Prior to the hike, please download the GPX file and have it imported in a GPS application on your phone. See my Facebook post about GPS apps. You can download the file from this event page.

Known bug: Make sure the file you have downloaded has a .gpx extension. If not, just rename it, as it might happen that you get a ".gpx.xml" file instead of just ".gpx" when downloading from a phone.


Schedule (approx.)

  • 10h40: We start hiking from the starting point mentioned above.
  • 14h40: Rütliwiese 
  • 16h17: Bus from Seelisberg - Hotel Sonnenberg back to Beckenried Post 

Gear

Hiking shoes, warm clothes, food, water, raincover whatever else you need for a good day on an autumn hike.


Additional notes

  • Out of respect for the others, please be on time. My events usually start exactly at the indicated time.
  • The route may be adjusted as in late autumn circumstances can change as of weather or closes paths
  • Some of the hikes I organize (not necessary this one - that's just a copy paste) may require experience / minimum pace, in which case I might need to contact you. Please keep an eye on your emails.

A few things about Hiking Buddies platform:

  • The organizer is no professional guide. Participants are responsible for themselves, must do their own research about the route, and must be able to navigate by themselves (in case the groups split for some reason, for example).
  • Unjoining allowed until 12 hours before the start of the event.
  • If you have a No Show in your profile ( = you did not show up to a hike you signed up to in the past), I may exclude you from the event

Transportation

  • This is a carpool event, possibly combined with people coming by public transports. Anyone else with a car can add it via the Carpool button at the top of this page. If you join by public transports, see the guidelines further down.

    Instructions for joining car

    1. Click on the Carpool button.
    2. If there's any available seat, click Join car. You have 12h before the event to unjoin, but the earlier the better so that someone else can join.

    How can I join by public transports?

    Case 1: You are the first one joining by public transports

    1. Click on Carpool (top of the page)
    2. Click on Add a car (even if it is not actually a car)
    3. Set the number of seats available to 0
    4. In the field Contact details, write "Public transports"
    5. The other fields aren't relevant.

    Case 2: Someone else already added a fake car for public transports

    1. Click on Carpool (top of the page)
    2. Click on Join car

I added a car with 10 places. If you take the 8h51 from HB you can join it. Not very practical that we add individual ones

@ Zürich people: who takes the train at 8.51, we could meet at the beginning of the platform at 8.40. Currently it is platform 3 but check tomorrow because it can change. Br
