An incredibly beautiful ridge hike over and along eight peaks between the passes popular with motorcyclists and the military between the cantons of Lucerne and Obwalden: Glaubenbielen and Glaubenberg. At least two peaks (Haldimattstock and Looegg) must be crossed; others can be bypassed on the left or right.
