Urnerboden

Switzerland's�most spacious alpine pasture, the Urnerboden, is a marvellous hiking area amidst an�impressive mountain scenery. The majority of the hiking trails as well as, since 2002, the cable railway "Fisetengrat" meet�at 2,000 m of height on the Fiseten pass.

When arriving on the Urnerboden, you are welcomed by a titanic mountain range (J�gerst�cke), which makes the�perfect�backdrop�for�stunning sunrises. But before, you should pause for a while�and�take a deep breath of fresh and pure�mountain air. Profit from this area of natural beauty and build up new strengths for your body, mind and soul.

Summer
The Urnerboden is ideal for hiking, mountain biking and climbing tours. During June, July and September you can witness the interesting cultivation of alpine pastures by centuries-old tradition.

Winter
The winter tempts you to�go ski-hiking, cross-coutry skiing, ice-climbing, sledge dog-riding or just to relax.

The new cable railway�near the restaurant "Urnerboden" eases the mountain and ski-hikes. The short ski lift next to the restaurant "Sonne"�suits families with children. The restaurants "Klausen" and "Alpenr�sli" are popular meeting places with the�locals. You, dear guests, are very welcome in each of these inns.

The ice climbing park is open for the whole winter season even by bad ice conditions. The 12 meter- long Voxrun (M6-)- a real classic, and the Pinocchio (M5+), a must, are only two examples of over 20 routes between W12+ and M5+ found close together.
