Stoos Ridge Hike | gratwanderung | Crest hike | Klingenstock | Fronalpstock | Wandern | Swiss Alps | Amazing Hike | Ridge Hikes | Crest Hikes | Switzerland
Renowned as one of Switzerland's finest high trails: the ridge path linking the Klingenstock and Fronalpstock peaks, with its many flights of steps. It affords views of more than ten Swiss lakes and countless Alpine peaks in Central Switzerland. During Spring, you can also discover a variety of Alpine flowers along the route.
The journey to the starting point of this hike is already quite an experience! To reach the car-free village of Stoos (1,300 m.a.s.l.), you need to take the world's steepest funicular (Stoos Funicular).

The sky-high ridge path starts at the summit: with 360º panoramic views all the way, you hike westwards via Rot Turm to Nollen. The vista of Lake Lucerne below is your companion on this section. The path is narrow but well equipped. Steps have been built at places on the uphill and downhill stretches, and very steep gradients are secured with chains. This high trail is usually well-frequented, so you are recommended to walk in the direction indicated to avoid crossing paths with other walkers too often. After Nollen, you can take a few extra minutes to climb up to the Huserstock, although the ridge trail skirts the saddle to the left. Behind the Huserstock, a short mountain path carved into the rock and secured with chains winds its way down to the Furggeli col. You need to be sure-footed and have a head for heights to tackle this path, but it is wide enough for two people to pass one another.
