From the train station, you reach the forest path via Etzelstrasse and from there down to the Tüfelsbrugg. Then a rough climb leads you to St. Meinrad. From there, you ride downhill towards Pfäffikon. After about one kilometer, turn right onto a gravel road. Now follows a varied section of the route where you can enjoy the wonderful view of Lake Zurich. From Hüttenweid, you ride to Schilligsrüti and further towards Waldeggli until Müligassegg. After about 100 meters towards Sattelegg, turn right and ride down the Chnüweg to Güetli and from there via Langrüti back to Einsiedeln.
