Zug flights of fancy

Hiking trail

The effort and reward of this strenuous hike up the 1,579 m high Rossberg is more than balanced. This tour is simply breathtaking.

Zuger Höhenflüge

Which expression best describes the panoramic view from the Wildspitz? "See the good is so close": when you see these spectacular views of the Rigi, the Mythen and the surrounding mountains, you ask yourself: "How far from home am I again?" Yes, the climb up the mountain, which is small by Swiss standards, is a tough one, as Rossberg is always full of sweaty passages. But you will enjoy the magnificent view from the highest point, the Wildspitz, all the more. From here, it's downhill before you finish the hike to Unterägeri on a straight stretch full of impressions.
