The Stollen snowshoe trail leads from the Klewenalp mountain station past the Klewen chapel, through the idyllic forest landscape up to the Stollen viewing point and back down to Klewenalp.

Experience the fascination of snowshoeing in the beautiful winter wonderland on Klewenalp, high above Lake Lucerne.

This varied snowshoe hike takes you from the Klewenalp mountain station past the Klewen chapel. After a short crossing of the Ergglen ski slope, you reach the idyllic forest landscape. Many forest clearings offer breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains of Central Switzerland and the deep blue waters of Lake Lucerne.

The covered year-round Ergglen fireplace or the PanoramaBar, Klewenstock, Alpstubli and KlewenStube 1600 mountain restaurants invite you to take a leisurely break on the way back to the Klewenalp mountain station (opening times at www.klewenalp.ch).
