Short, half-hour loop in Schwenden: The easy circular trail is just the thing for a short break in winter.
The signposted winter walking trail leads you from the Geissboden post bus stop up to Schlunegg and via Obermatte to Schwenden cemetery. You return to the starting point along the Anger-Senggiweid winter hiking trail.
If you wish, you can extend the trail as you wish:
From Schlunegg, continue in the direction of Senggiweid (circular hike) or continue out of the valley from Schwenden cemetery to Anger.
