    Entspannte Etappe entlang des Felsenwegs beim Bürgenberg, vorbei am Hammetschwand Lift -> eine Fahrt nach oben lohnt sich. Danach geht es auf gemütlichen Pfaden mit schönen Aussichten herunter.

    Entlang am Alpnachsee und durch das schöne Dörfchen Stansstadt (Mitagessen und Badepause hier empfehlenswert), bevor es steil nach oben zum Bürgenstock Resort (absolute top Empfehlung zur Übernachten, wenn auch nicht günstig) geht.
