Rigi Tour - SwitzerlandMobility Route 963
The routes on the Rigi massif offer some of the best mountain biking in Central Switzerland. The fabulous views in all directions are a joy for the eye and balm for the soul.
Though not really technically difficult, you need to be fit for this demanding tour. It is amply rewarded by wonderful distant views.
After a flat section along Lake Lucerne, the ascent to the Gätterli Pass begins at Gersau. The ride leads to Timpelweid via Alp Egg and the Gottertli. Just before the Urmiberg is a short section where you need to dismount. This is followed by a rapid descent down to the valley and along the Muota back to where you started.
