    Eine wirklich sehr schöne Rundtour mit einem 465HM 9% Climb. Malerische Optik und unterwegs gibt's viele Cafes und Restaurants. Einzig der Waldweg mit groben Steinen und zig Stufen hat bei der Tour gestört (hat auch die SPD Schuhplatten zerstört).

    Die Axenstrasse ab Brunnen ist für Velos gesperrt. Wer sich den Busshuttle und das spätere Tragen sparen möchte nimmt die Autofähre von Gersau nach Beckenried.

    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.

    Schöne Aussicht Tolle Runde über ein paar Schotterstraße und Hammer Ausblicke. Interessant ist auch die Fahr über die Landebahn der PILATUS-Werke. Abwärts auch nicht all zu schwer. Gerne hätte ich abwärts die Trails gewünscht, leider war das Schwerste eine Kuhwiese. Und sehr schön ist die Kapelle mit super ausblick. Die POWERMESCNHEN von: www.no-battery.com sagen danke.
