    The hike starts in Andermatt, the largest village in the Ursern Valley. On the sunny side, the valley path leads along the Reuss river, past the golf course to Hospental. Hikers continue through beautiful flower meadows to Zumdorf, the smallest village in Switzerland. Towards Realp, the trail passes through a unique floodplain landscape on the dam of the Furkareuss. In July, the flora along the path is particularly lush. The path is well developed and does not have steep ascents, making it perfect for Sunday walkers.

    • Playground in Hospental and Realp including fire pit
    • Day backpack/barbecue
    • Tower in Hospental
    • Zumdorf (smallest village in Switzerland)
